How to use this glossary
This glossary explains the most common terms you’ll see across Trinigence - in the context they are used inside the platform. Definitions are practical and product-focused, not academic.Core concepts
Strategy
A fully defined set of trading rules that can be backtested and executed. In Trinigence, a strategy always includes:- a market and timeframe
- entry logic
- exit logic
- risk behavior
Trading Idea
A human-readable description of what you want to trade and how. Example:“Trade ETH on 1h using MACD crossovers with fixed TP and SL.”Trading ideas are translated into strategies by ATI.
ATI (Artificial Trading Intelligence)
The AI system inside Trinigence that:- interprets natural language
- structures strategy logic
- fills missing details
- validates consistency
- suggests improvements
Backtest
A historical simulation of a strategy on past market data. Backtests in Trinigence are:- deterministic
- consistent across runs
- based on available historical candles
Strategy components
Market / Symbol
The instrument being traded (e.g. BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT). Availability depends on data coverage and environment.Timeframe
The candle interval used for strategy logic (e.g. 15m, 1h, 4h, 1D). All indicators and conditions are evaluated on the selected timeframe unless explicitly stated otherwise.Direction
The trade side a strategy can take:- Long – profit from price increases
- Short – profit from price decreases
Entry
The condition(s) that must be true for a trade to open. Entries are typically indicator-based, rule-based, or a combination of both.Exit
The condition(s) that close an open trade. Exits can be:- fixed (TP / SL)
- logic-based
- time-based
- or a combination
Risk Management
Rules that define how much risk a strategy takes. This commonly includes:- take profit
- stop loss
- position sizing
- exposure limits
Take Profit (TP)
A predefined rule that closes a trade once a profit target is reached. Usually expressed as a percentage in early strategy versions.Stop Loss (SL)
A predefined rule that closes a trade to limit losses. Always required for a deterministic strategy.Indicators & logic
Indicator
A calculated value derived from price and/or volume data. Trinigence supports a broad TA-Lib indicator set plus custom indicators.Indicator Parameters
The numeric values that define indicator behavior(e.g. RSI(14), MACD(12,26,9)).
Condition
A logical statement that evaluates to true or false. Examples:- RSI(14) < 30
- EMA(10) crosses above EMA(20)
- Supertrend changes to buy
Cross / Crossover
A condition where one value moves above or below another value. Used frequently in trend and momentum strategies.Trend Change
A condition where an indicator signals a directional regime shift(e.g. trend turning bullish or bearish).
Backtesting & metrics
Trade
A single instance of an opened and closed position generated by a strategy.Equity Curve
A visual representation of how account value changes over time during a backtest.Drawdown
The decline from a peak to a trough in the equity curve. Used to assess risk and capital stress.Win Rate
The percentage of trades that close in profit. Win rate alone does not determine strategy quality.Average Win / Average Loss
The mean profit or loss per winning or losing trade. These values are often more important than win rate.Exposure
The percentage of time a strategy has an open position. High exposure means the strategy is almost always in the market.Platform behavior
Defaults
Reasonable assumptions applied by ATI when information is missing(e.g. default exits, standard indicator parameters). Defaults are always surfaced and can be changed.
