LuxAlgo

Markets, illuminated

We're LuxAlgo — The world's largest provider of technical indicators. Whether it's through our free indicators, exclusive tools, or community, our mission is to give clarity to traders & investors.

In a space that's opaque and awash with false claims, we illuminate markets. We don't tease, mislead, or complicate — we come at our audience with a genuine desire to share what we know as developers & traders.

We aim to give you a clear read on the markets, insights at the highest level, and help you find your own edge.

We open-source 95% of what we do; hundreds of indicators, free for anyone to use and improve, while saving the best for our subscribers who support our work the most.

OUR STORY

Trading's biggest anomaly

Our contributive approach is how we pioneered the very first modern trading software brand.

Instead of promising win-rates or acting like we have some magic black box, we took a stance against the decades old taint to the industry.

Since 2020, we’ve dedicated ourselves to providing the greatest tools possible to various charting platforms with our team of the most reputable script developers in the world.

Our efforts grew to massive achievements over the years, such as growing a following of 500,000+ on TradingView, becoming the largest profile by far on the platform.

In 2024, we were nominated by TradingView as Pine Script Wizard, honoring the consistent volume, quality and utility of our contributions for traders. We're the first & only team to make it into their hall of fame.

Our core team.
