What does Median price measure?
The midpoint of a single candle — halfway between its high and its low.
How is Median price calculated?
Add the candle's high and low and divide by two.
Written by reading the engine’s real computation, not a textbook — where the two differ, the page describes what actually runs.
How do I use Median price in a bot?
In the builder, add an indicator of type median_price. Its value becomes an operand you can compare in any entry or exit rule. The engine grades the whole rule honestly: real fills, no look-ahead, half the history held back.
