How far have highs or lows shifted from the previous candle?
Uses the larger absolute change in high or low and adds a smoothed reference.
One dataset, the same parameters and the same candle for application and explanation.

11 Sept 2026, 15:00 — 11 Oct 2026, 15:00 UTC · 720 evaluation candles · 3000 earlier candles for warm-up only. Your opened snapshot stays fixed. A visit can refresh a stale cache in the background for later visitors; fetching fresh is not a tick stream.
Parameters and precise application
Number of confirmed hourly candles. Warm-up history stays fixed; only this parameter changes.
Number of confirmed hourly candles. Warm-up history stays fixed; only this parameter changes.
Explicit formula parameter of the calculation convention described below.
Volatility and position risk
Inspect the actual value at each confirmed candle. This analysis produces no buy or sell orders.
Shared capital and cost model
Includes the buy fee; the remainder stays in cash.
One adverse markup/markdown. Do not add spread a second time.

Calculation and interpretation of the same candle
The USDC value describes an observed shift in extremes; thresholds relative to smoothing mark changing range dynamics.
max(|ΔH|,|ΔL|); Long=thermo<long·EMA(thermo); Short=thermo>short·EMA(thermo)
Raw thermometer, MA and both independent conditions are separate outputs; these are not position orders.
The thermometer measures neither temperature nor trading direction and guarantees no limit on the next move or a stop loss.

The sources support definitions and methodological limits. They do not establish profit for this specific BTCUSDC rule. This analysis is descriptive; parameter trials on the same history are not independent out-of-sample evidence. Parity with a deployed unCoded engine is not claimed.
