Algo levels: how they are computed and how to tune them
Video in Russian “Алго-уровни и расширенная аналитика | biasmachine”, 24 January 2026, 11:12.
What the video is about
The video explains how algo levels are computed: for every hour counted from 18:00 New York, all days of history are taken and the platform counts how often price moved above or below a set distance from the interval's open.
Level 60 means that in 60% of recorded cases price at that time on that asset stayed below the level; the same is computed for 15-minute (candle) intervals, and a candle is recoloured when it goes beyond both levels at once.
Settings shown: sample filters (news, previous-day open, month), a second level for strong deviations, statistics metrics on the card, trade tags and the trade snapshot in analytics. The video is in Russian.
Key claims
- All intervals are counted from 18:00 New York: index zero of the table is 18:00, the 14:00–15:00 interval is index twenty.
- A value of 60 means that in 60% of all recorded cases at that time on that asset price was below the level and in 40% above; a value of 80 means 80% and 20%.
- Candle levels are computed for 15-minute intervals from their open; a candle is recoloured when it goes beyond both the candle and the session level.
- The sample can be narrowed by filters: news, previous-day open (PD Open), month of the year, and for indices days to contract rollover and the contract quarter.
- Statistics metrics on the card show open and close bins, session type, visits of the previous day's low and high and liquidity sweeps of previous fractals.
- The challenge had a limit of no more than three contracts (data as of 24 January 2026).

Questions about the video
What does level 60 mean?
In 60% of recorded cases at that time on that asset price was below the level, in 40% above. It is a historical frequency, not a forecast.
When is a candle recoloured?
When a 15-minute candle goes beyond two levels at once — the candle and the session level: beyond the lows the lows are coloured, beyond the highs the highs.
Are algo levels free?
Algo levels are part of Pro, while deviation quantiles and basic statistics in the tester are free; the exact list is on the Access page.
How to read the numbers
Numbers are given as stated in the video on the recording date, 24 January 2026. After Research studies are recomputed they may differ.
Historical frequencies are not individual investment advice and do not guarantee repetition. Hypothetical results do not reflect real trading (CFTC Rule 4.41 principle).
