Forecasting Probability Sierra Chart

Description

Connects to any signal output in Sierra Chart and answers the question: when this signal has appeared historically, how far did price typically move?

The module analyses all historical occurrences of the selected signal, then displays three probability-based price targets directly on the chart at every new trigger.

Probability Levels

Level Meaning
84% target Price reached at least this far in ~84% of historical cases — conservative expectation
50% target Average price movement — median historical outcome
16% target Only ~16% of cases turned before here — aggressive/maximum expectation

These levels adjust for real market distributions. Non-normal outcomes are handled with three distribution methods: Auto, Cornish-Fisher (moderate skew), and Strictly Monotonic (extreme fat tails).

What You See on the Chart

  • Trigger marker with sequential number at each signal — track sample size as it grows
  • Probability bar showing the three target levels
  • Distribution histogram — 20-bin frequency visualization of historical outcomes
  • Statistical metrics — mean, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis per signal

Sample Size and Confidence

Triggers Interpretation
1–10 Preliminary — statistics forming
10–30 Pattern emerging — levels becoming meaningful
30+ Statistically significant
100+ High confidence — robust foundation
