Dynamic Trend Profile

The question I was asked this weekend was what are timing boxes. I am posting here the answer so people who do not have the program can learn more about our program....

Timing Boxes are Dynamic Trend Profile indicators designed to identify and display the duration of the current trade setup in a room size area. Timing boxes start from the right and move to the left.

Timing boxes are made up of a series of nine small boxes segmented into three sections. Each section represents a phase within a timing cycle of a trade. The Red and Blue timing boxes are located above and below the strength bars in a Profile Room Size window. The upper timing box identifies the time duration for Sell positions. The lower timing box identifies the time duration for Buy positions. Again, timing boxes always begin in the first, far right box.

Each box within the three sections represents a cycle level within a trade phase. As it develops, a Blue or Red color moves to the left one box at a time. The further away the timing box moves within these boxes, the older the trade cycle becomes. The first section is the Entry phase. During the Entry Phase, the stock should be setting up for a Buy or Sell entry.

The second section is the trade Kick Out Phase. During the Kick Out phase, the trade should be kicking out of the room size and moving toward the target direction. In this phase,the trade begins to mature.

The third section represents the Close Out Phase of trade development. During the Close Out phase, the trade should have run its course and be on its way to completion. In this phase, the trade must be closed out very soon.

Below is an example of an Entry phase. The price is at the trigger, and the stop, risk and profit target have been identified. Since the trade is in the Entry phase, the trade should be listed in the Matrix.

In this example, we have a Buy signal designated by the Blue Bullseye. There is a Blue timing box at the first level with a beginning Bullseye. This trade can still be considered due to the fact that the box colored is in the Entry phase or in one of the first two timing boxes.

In the Kick Out Phase, you need to observe some strong moves toward the target. In most cases, it is now too late to enter a new trade. Sometimes you might get a chance to enter again near the trigger price. However, you must be very careful.

During the Kick Out Phase the stock has to exhibit strong kick out tendencies such as strong price movements towards the price target. However, if the stock begins to trade sideways (specifically if the stock moves above and below the trigger numerous times), it indicates lower probabilities for a successful trade. This is also the reason why entering a trade during the Kick Out phase is not the ideal situation. Under these conditions you might want to consider this a scratched trade and utilize your margin elsewhere.

Finally, in the Close Out Phase, look to take profits.

Below is one more example of Timing Boxes in action from the Entry to the Close Out Phase.
