STRATIQ Trend
Trend is engineered to give signals when a high-probability medium-term move is forming. It is designed to capture meaningful swings earlier and exit earlier when risk conditions appear.
How it was designed to be read
Trend is designed for spot investing and structured positioning. It is meant to be read as clear thresholds that guide systematic actions in medium-term market phases.
Important note
Signals are finalized after the UTC 00:00 close and published following manual review.
Please allow up to 1–2 hours for approval and distribution to the dashboards.
STRATIQ signals are designed to be acted on each day immediately after release; delayed execution may result in reduced signal efficiency as market conditions evolve and may incur losses in capital.
How to read the gauges
Thresholds (bullish side)
- 0.0 = Neutral: hold and prepare to take action
- +0.2 = Entry level: bullish signal (begin participating)
- +0.5 = Stronger bullish confirmation level
- +1.0 = Full consensus between all data inputs. A +1 reading may reflect either bullish continuation or a transition toward mean-reverting conditions, depending on the broader market state.
Thresholds (bearish side)
- -0.2 = Bearish signal: preference is to cut all positions as this was the intended threshold for cutting. Holding past here may incur unnecessary risk.
- -0.5 = Stronger bearish confirmation level
- -1.0 = Full consensus between all data inputs. A -1 reading may reflect either bearish continuation or a transition toward mean-reverting conditions, depending on the broader market state.
How users apply it
Standalone use
The medium-term trend probability indicator can be used independently to express directional exposure during favorable swing conditions. Entries are taken at a bullish reading of +0.2, with exits triggered when the signal turns bearish at −0.2.
This configuration favors earlier participation and accepts a higher rate of false signals as part of the design.
Layered use
For higher confirmation, the indicator can be layered with Core. DCA is executed within Core value zones, while swing exposure is added only when both the Core long-term indicator and the medium-term Trend indicator confirm bullish conditions.
This structure prioritizes alignment across time horizons. All exposure is removed when the medium-term indicator turns bearish at −0.2, and capital remains in a neutral state until the next valid signal.
