# BETADIST: Beta Distribution CDF
| Property | Value |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------- |
| **Category** | Numeric |
| **Inputs** | Source (close) |
| **Parameters** | `period` (default 50), `alpha` (default 2.0), `beta` (default 2.0) |
| **Outputs** | Single series (Betadist) |
| **Output range** | Varies (see docs) |
| **Warmup** | `period` bars |
### TL;DR
- BETADIST computes the cumulative distribution function of the Beta distribution applied to a min-max normalized price series.
- Parameterized by `period` (default 50), `alpha` (default 2.0), `beta` (default 2.0).
- Output range: Varies (see docs).
- Requires `period` bars of warmup before first valid output (IsHot = true).
- Validated against TA-Lib, Skender, and Tulip reference implementations where available.
BETADIST computes the cumulative distribution function of the Beta distribution applied to a min-max normalized price series. The source price is first normalized to $[0, 1]$ over a lookback window, then passed through the regularized incomplete beta function $I_x(\alpha, \beta)$ to produce a probability-mapped oscillator. The two shape parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$ control the nonlinear mapping: symmetric parameters ($\alpha = \beta$) produce a sigmoid-like transformation centered at 0.5, while asymmetric parameters skew the mapping to emphasize extremes in either direction.
