The work carried out a comparative analysis of scientific publications regarding the possibility of predicting the direction of the cryptocurrency exchange rate using the data of open numerical indicators, based on the results of which it can be concluded that due to the volatility of the cryptocurrency market and the need for accurate forecasting, there is a need to create an aggregated indicator that will take into account the current price exchange rate asset, parameters of simple indicators, trading volume, etc. In addition, this indicator will be a parameter for the application of a multi-criteria analysis model in the process of supporting decision-making for cryptocurrency trading. A software decision support system for cryptocurrency traders on the Trading View platform has also been developed, which allows the cryptocurrency trader to get the value of the current situation of the cryptocurrency market in the form of a value using the method of weighting coefficients and selected indicators. Among the selected indicators: RSI, MA, CCI, Stochastic Oscillator, OBV, ADX, CMF to determine the moment of opening a position, and Fibonacci Retracement, Ichimoku Cloud to determine the closing of positions. Taking into account all the indicators and the coefficients determined for them, the obtained range of values is from 0 % to 100 %. If the value of the indicator exceeds the threshold of 20 %, it means that it is necessary to inform the trader about a possible entry point. That is, a value of 20 % to 40 % is weak performance, 40 % to 60 % is medium performance, 60 % to 80 % is strong performance, and a value greater than 80 % will not be overlapped by new pyramiding values for a better overall indicator success rate. The value of the indicator determines the potential effectiveness of opening positions, and thanks to the RSI indicator, the direction of opening positions is determined. The direction of the position is divided into long and short.
An indicator has been developed for the TradingView platform, which, unlike existing simple indicators, collects data from open access and calculates a potential point for opening a position. Obtaining the numerical value of a single indicator saves the trader time to review and analyze a collection of indicators and time to decide on opening a position, as the cryptocurrency market is known for its sudden volatility, where a decision must be made quickly.
