# Dashboard

## Overview

The **Dashboard** is a real-time display that provides an at-a-glance summary of the key market metrics analyzed by the Lune Market Analysis indicator. It condenses complex data into a simple, easy-to-read panel on your chart, helping you quickly assess the current market environment.

The dashboard tracks four primary dimensions of the market: **Trend**, **Strength**, **Smart Activity**, and **Volatility**. Each metric is given a status and a score, allowing you to instantly gauge market conditions without needing to interpret multiple different tools.

## Metrics Explained

The dashboard visualizes four key metrics, each with a descriptive status and a progress bar that reflects its underlying score.

| Metric             | Description                                                                             |                                             |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Trend**          | Measures the dominant market direction. The status will show                            | **Bullish**, **Bearish**, or **Ranging**.   |
| **Strength**       | Analyzes the persistence and conviction behind the current trend. The status will show  | **Strong**, **Weak**, or **Average**.       |
| **Smart Activity** | Detects the presence of institutional or "smart money" order flow. The status will show | **High**, **Low**, or **Neutral** activity. |
| **Volatility**     | Measures the current level of price volatility. The status will show                    | **High**, **Medium**, or **Low**.           |

#### Best Practices & Usage

* **Quick Market Assessment:** Use the dashboard at the start of your trading session to get a quick understanding of the current market environment.
* **Confirmation of Conditions:** Look for agreement across multiple dashboard metrics. For example, a Bullish trend with **Strong** strength and **High** smart activity can indicate a high-confidence long setup.
* **Risk Management:** A **High** volatility reading can serve as a warning to reduce position sizes or tighten stop losses.
* **Layout Customization:** Choose the **Vertical** orientation if you have limited horizontal space on your chart, or use the **Horizontal** layout for a more compact view.
