Indie is a technical analysis-oriented programming language and runtime for developing indicators for the TakeProfit platform. All built-in indicators on the platform are implemented in Indie, and TakeProfit has integrated IDE tools that allow users to create their own indicators.

Indie is a dialect of Python and is essentially a subset of Python language constructs, with added syntactic sugar in the form of decorators (such as @indicator or @algorithm) and a few differences in semantics. You can learn more about these differences in this section.

For a quick understanding of the Indie code, it is recommended to go directly to the Quick start chapter.

As a product of TakeProfit, Indie is under ongoing development and many new features and capabilities are expected to be added in the future.
