Kimchi PremiumKimchi Premium Indicator
Track the price difference between Korean cryptocurrency exchanges and global markets - a key metric for understanding regional market sentiment and arbitrage opportunities.
What is the Kimchi Premium?
The Kimchi Premium measures how much more (or less) cryptocurrencies trade on Korean exchanges compared to global exchanges. Named after Korea's famous fermented dish, this premium often reflects Korean retail investor sentiment and capital flow restrictions.
How It Works:
• Fetches prices from Korean exchanges (Upbit, Bithumb) in KRW
• Compares against global exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, OKX) in USD/USDT
• Automatically converts KRW to USD using Pepperstone's USD/KRW rate
• Calculates the premium as: (Korean Price USD - Global Price) / Global Price * 100
Visual Indicators:
• Green bars = Korean exchanges trading at a premium (more expensive)
• Red bars = Korean exchanges trading at a discount (cheaper)
• Histogram style with zero baseline for easy interpretation
Key Features:
• Exchange Selection: Choose individual Korean/global exchanges or averaged prices across multiple venues
• Display Options: View premium in percentage (%) or absolute dollar ($) terms
• Inverse Mode: Flip perspective to show global premium over Korean prices
• Moving Average: Smooth out noise with customizable MA period
• Live Table: Real-time premium display in top-right corner
• Auto-Detection: Works with any crypto pair on your chart (BTC, ETH, XRP, etc.)
Trading Applications:
• Sentiment Analysis: Extreme premiums (>5%) often signal Korean retail FOMO - potential reversal zones
• Arbitrage Identification: Large premiums/discounts highlight profit opportunities (consider logistics/capital controls)
• Regional Flow Tracking: Monitor capital movement into/out of Korean crypto markets
• Risk Management: Historical data shows massive premiums often coincide with local tops
Customization Options:
• Korean exchanges: Averaged out, Upbit, Bithumb
• Global exchanges: Averaged out, Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, OKX
• Display format: Percentage or dollar amount
• Moving average toggle and period adjustment
• Table display on/off
• Inverse premium view
Pro Tips:
• Use "Averaged out" settings for most reliable data across multiple venues
• Watch for premium spikes above 3-5% as potential sentiment extremes
• Negative premiums can indicate Korean selling pressure or efficient arbitrage
• Combine with volume analysis for stronger signals

The use of Moving averages to help identify a Trends and the use of Key levels to help traders be aware of where strong areas are in the market.

There are new candles to the script.
The First candle is the Bullish Volume Candle - This candle is set to a multiplier of 2x with a crossover of 50/100 on Volume - this then will paint a purple candle.
Uses of the Bullish Volume Candle:
Breakthrough of key areas // special chart patterns
Rejection of key areas
End of a impulse wave (Profit Takers)
The second candle is a Hammer - I prefer using the Hammers on Higher Timeframes however they do work on all timeframes. .
The third candle is a Exhaustion of impulse downward move.
Uses of this candle - can denote a new trend but has to be with confluence to a demand area // support area or with any use of technical analysis - using this alone is not advised
The fourth candle is a indecision candle in the shape of a Doji - this candle can help identify if the trend is in a continuation or a reversal
This script can work really well in Crypto Bull Runs
