Updated 🇰🇷 Kim'in Kim'out — Korean Premium Tracker
Kim’in Kim’out is a premium-tracking TradingView indicator that reveals Korean market sentiment by comparing real-time asset prices on Upbit (KRW) and Binance (USDT).
It detects when Korean traders are spot accumulating (Kim’in) or spot distributing (Kim’out) — enhanced by volume confirmation and trend context.
Perfect for crypto scalpers, swing traders, and arbitrage hunters.
⚙️ How It Works
Kimchi Premium: Measures how much more (or less) Koreans are paying on Upbit compared to Binance.
Volume Confirmation: Filters signals by comparing Upbit volume vs its moving average.
Signal Logic:
🔼 Kim’in: Premium exceeds the buy threshold + high volume
🔽 Kim’out: Premium drops below the sell threshold + high volume
Trend Context: Premium trend line gives insight into sustained interest/disinterest.
🎛️ Settings Overview

Buy Threshold (%) How high the premium must be to trigger a Kim’in signal

🧪 Best Practices

Spot divergences between Binance and Upbit to predict regional flow shifts
🚫 Limitations
Works only with coins that have both Binance USDT & Upbit KRW pairs
Premium may be delayed by low liquidity or FX rate fluctuations (USDKRW)
Not suitable for lowcaps not listed on Upbit
