AI Channels (Clustering)

AI Channels (Clustering) draws its channel from data, not formula. Rolling K-means clustering groups the last Window Size prices, and the centroids of the lowest, average, and highest clusters become the lower extremity, center line, and upper extremity. Each extremity carries a dispersion area whose width mirrors how scattered prices are inside that cluster: a wide area is a volatile cluster, and price entering it has better odds of pushing clean through.

How to Trade the AI Channels (Clustering)?

• Upper extremity break: price moving above it reads as an uptrend; dropping below the lower extremity reads as a downtrend.
• Dispersion areas: treat a wide zone as a soft boundary. Price trading inside it raises the likelihood the extremity gives way.
• As Trailing Stop: flip the display mode and the channel becomes a trailing stop that shadows the detected trend.
• Tuning the read: larger Window Size values target longer-term trends, while more Clusters pushes the extremities further from price, making penetration rarer.

The default Denoise Channels option keeps the extremities steady for trend reading; disabling it plots the exact centroids at the cost of more irregular lines. Like the library's other machine learning tools, the clustering is compute-aware, with two performance inputs bounding the work per update.

AI Channels (Clustering) Settings

• Window Size: how many recent prices feed the clustering.
• Clusters: number of clusters detected within the window.
• Denoise Channels: smoother extremities on, exact centroids off.
• As Trailing Stop: switches the channel to trailing-stop display.
• Maximum Iteration Steps: caps the centroid search. Faster loads, potentially rougher clustering.
• Historical Bars Calculation: how many bars back the script computes.
