# OpenAlgo Indicator Expert Skill

## Environment

- Python 3.12+ (required by openalgo 2.x) with openalgo, pandas, numpy, plotly, dash, streamlit
- Data sources: OpenAlgo (Indian markets via `client.history()`, `client.quotes()`, `client.depth()`), yfinance (US/Global)
- Real-time: OpenAlgo WebSocket (`client.connect()`, `subscribe_ltp`, `subscribe_quote`, `subscribe_depth`)
- Indicators: **openalgo.ta** (ALWAYS — 100+ indicators computed by a compiled Rust core, full speed from the first call)
- Charts: Plotly with `template="plotly_dark"`
- Dashboards: Plotly Dash with `dash-bootstrap-components` (default) OR Streamlit with `st.plotly_chart()` — use Streamlit only when the user explicitly asks for it
- Custom indicators: vectorized NumPy composed from openalgo.ta primitives (Rust core — no JIT, no warmup)
- API keys loaded from single root `.env` via `python-dotenv` + `find_dotenv()` — never hardcode keys
- Scripts go in appropriate directories (charts/, dashboards/, custom_indicators/, scanners/) created on-demand
- Never use icons/emojis in code or logger output

## Critical Rules

1. **ALWAYS use openalgo.ta** for ALL technical indicators. Never reimplement what already exists in the library.
2. **Data normalization**: Always convert DataFrame index to datetime, sort, and strip timezone after fetching.
3. **Signal cleaning**: Always use `ta.exrem()` after generating raw buy/sell signals. Always `.fillna(False)` before exrem.
4. **Plotly dark theme**: All charts use `template="plotly_dark"` with `xaxis type="category"` for candlesticks.
5. **Custom indicators**: Compose from openalgo.ta primitives (`ta.sma`, `ta.stdev`, `ta.bbands`, ...) plus vectorized NumPy. Never reimplement built-ins; no JIT or warmup is needed.
6. **Input flexibility**: openalgo.ta accepts numpy arrays, pandas Series, or lists. Output matches input type.
7. **WebSocket feeds**: Use `client.connect()`, `client.subscribe_ltp()` / `subscribe_quote()` / `subscribe_depth()` for real-time data.
8. **Environment**: Load `.env` from project root via `find_dotenv()` — never hardcode API keys.
9. **Market detection**: If symbol looks Indian (SBIN, RELIANCE, NIFTY), use OpenAlgo. If US (AAPL, MSFT), use yfinance.
10. **Always explain** chart outputs in plain language so traders understand what the indicator shows.

## Data Source Priority

| Market | Data Source | Method | Example Symbols |
|--------|------------|--------|-----------------|
| India (equity) | OpenAlgo | `client.history()` | SBIN, RELIANCE, INFY |
| India (index) | OpenAlgo | `client.history(exchange="NSE_INDEX")` | NIFTY, BANKNIFTY |
| India (F&O) | OpenAlgo | `client.history(exchange="NFO")` | NIFTY30DEC25FUT |
| US/Global | yfinance | `yf.download()` | AAPL, MSFT, SPY |

## OpenAlgo API Methods for Data

| Method | Purpose | Returns |
|--------|---------|---------|
| `client.history(symbol, exchange, interval, start_date, end_date)` | OHLCV candles | DataFrame (timestamp, open, high, low, close, volume) |
| `client.quotes(symbol, exchange)` | Real-time snapshot | Dict (open, high, low, ltp, bid, ask, prev_close, volume) |
| `client.multiquotes(symbols=[...])` | Multi-symbol quotes | List of quote dicts |
| `client.depth(symbol, exchange)` | Market depth (L5) | Dict (bids, asks, ohlc, volume, oi) |
| `client.intervals()` | Available intervals | Dict (minutes, hours, days, weeks, months) |
| `client.optionchain(underlying, exchange, expiry_date, strike_count)` | Option chain around ATM | Dict (underlying_ltp, atm_strike, chain with ce/pe per strike) |
| `client.optiongreeks(symbol, exchange, interest_rate, ...)` | Option greeks + IV | Dict (greeks: delta/gamma/theta/vega/rho, implied_volatility, days_to_expiry) |
| `client.expiry(symbol, exchange, instrumenttype)` | Expiry dates list | Dict (data: list of expiry dates) |
| `client.connect()` | WebSocket connect | None (sets up WS connection) |
| `client.subscribe_ltp(instruments, callback)` | Live LTP stream | Callback with `{symbol, exchange, ltp}` |
| `client.subscribe_quote(instruments, callback)` | Live quote stream | Callback with `{symbol, exchange, ohlc, ltp, volume}` |
| `client.subscribe_depth(instruments, callback)` | Live depth stream | Callback with `{symbol, exchange, bids, asks}` |
