Matrix Glitch | FractalystThe Matrix Glitch indicator is a visually engaging tool for traders, inspired by the iconic Matrix movie effects. It overlays price charts with dynamic, multi-colored glitches that sync with market data, creating a striking, almost surreal visual experience.
The indicator uses characters from various languages (e.g., Japanese, Chinese, Russian, English) to mimic the digital rain effect from the movies. Users can select a language, which activates a corresponding array of characters. These characters are randomly picked from the chosen array and displayed on the chart.
Underlying Calculations and Logic
Arrays in the Indicator
1- Character Management:
The script uses arrays to store sets of characters representing different symbols or alphabets. These arrays allow the indicator to dynamically select and update characters for display. Each element in these arrays corresponds to a specific character that will be used to populate the grid.
2- Current and Previous States:
Arrays are employed to keep track of the current state of characters that are displayed on the grid. Simultaneously, another set of arrays records the previous state of these characters. This dual-state management allows the script to smoothly transition between updates, handling changes in characters and visual effects like fading.
3- Transparency Control:
Transparency levels for each character in the grid are managed through arrays. These arrays store the opacity values, ensuring that each character has the appropriate level of transparency. By comparing the current and previous transparency states, the script can create effects like gradual fading or intensifying visibility.
4- Rain Effect Simulation:
To create the "rain" effect, the script maintains arrays that simulate the falling text by continuously updating the position and visibility of characters. As new characters enter the top of the grid, older ones are removed from the bottom, with their transparency levels adjusted to simulate movement.
5- Operational Flow:
Initialization : Arrays are initialized to manage both the characters and their transparency. This setup allows the script to handle the dynamic display efficiently.
Updates : During each cycle, new characters are selected and old characters are shifted accordingly. The arrays ensure that both the content and appearance of the grid are updated seamlessly.
Rendering : The arrays dictate how characters and their transparency are rendered on the grid, ensuring a cohesive and visually appealing effect.
Here's how to use the indicator step-by-step:
1- Apply the Indicator to Your Charts:
Begin by adding the indicator to your chart. This will activate the visual effect on your selected trading instrument or time frame.
Select Your Preferred Language of the Matrix Characters:
In the settings, choose the language or symbol set you want the matrix characters to display. This could be anything from traditional matrix-style characters to different alphabets or custom symbols.
2- Choose the Matrix Effect (Rain, Burst):
Decide on the type of visual effect you prefer. You can select from options like the classic "rain" effect, where characters fall from the top of the screen, or a "burst" effect, where characters explode outward or appear in a different dynamic pattern.
3- Adjust the Color According to Your Preference:
Customize the color of the matrix characters to suit your aesthetic or chart theme. You can select from a range of colors or even set up a gradient for more complex visual effects.
4- Adjust the Width and Height of the Matrix According to Your Screen:
Fine-tune the dimensions of the matrix display. Set the width and height so that the matrix fits perfectly on your screen, ensuring that it aligns well with other chart elements and doesn't obstruct your view.

What Makes the Matrix Glitch Indicator Unique?
Language Selection:
Customizable Language: Unlike many indicators that might offer static or limited visual elements, the Matrix Glitch Indicator allows users to choose from a variety of languages for the characters displayed. This feature not only personalizes the user experience but also adds a cultural or linguistic element to trading charts. Users can select languages like Japanese, Chinese, Russian, or English, and many more.
This flexibility ensures that traders from different backgrounds can feel a connection with their charts through familiar or exotic scripts.
Dynamic Effects:
Effect Modes: The indicator offers two distinct modes - Rain Mode and Burst Mode. In Rain Mode, characters fall from the top of the chart, mimicking the iconic digital rain from the Matrix films.
In Burst Mode, characters radiate outward from a central point, creating a unique visual effect that can be synchronized with market volatility.
This dual-mode functionality allows traders to choose how they want their data to be visually represented, providing both aesthetic variety and potentially different insights into market behavior.
Color Customization:
Full Color Control: The ability to fully customize the color of the characters is a standout feature. Traders can match the indicator's colors to their trading platform's theme, their mood, or even specific market conditions (e.g., red for downturns, green for upturns). This level of customization not only aids in creating a personalized trading environment but can also serve as a visual cue for different market states.
Universal Display Compatibility:
Adjustability for All Displays: The indicator is designed to be fully adjustable for various screen resolutions and sizes. This ensures that whether you're trading on a high-resolution monitor, a laptop, or even a mobile device, the Matrix Glitch effect remains clear and impactful without compromising on the functionality of the trading chart. This adaptability is crucial in an era where trading can happen anywhere, making the indicator a versatile tool for traders on the go or in a static setup.
