A written reference on on chain analysis — how it works, how to configure it, and where it breaks under load.
How It Works
The internal mechanics of on chain analysis tie together data ingestion, signal computation, and order handling into one pipeline.
Configuration
A on chain analysis setup accepts several knobs worth documenting. Start from defaults, then adjust against measured behaviour.
Failure Modes
on chain analysis breaks in recognizable ways: silent data gaps, parameters that stopped matching the market, and latency spikes at the worst moment.
Evaluation
An honest evaluation of on chain analysis weighs quantitative metrics alongside code quality and how much attention it demands in production.

Parameter Impact
| Parameter | Effect | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| timeframe | Signal frequency | Higher means fewer but more reliable signals |
| risk_limit | Maximum exposure | Lower means safer but slower returns |
| lookback | Indicator sensitivity | Longer means smoother but lagging |
