We have recently introduced into a beta version of Dynamic Trend, the DT Group Rotation application. Let me introduce you to this new feature using the Forex market, because here the history part is closer to completion. Information shown in the following posts are taken from DT version 2.1, build 193. To find what version you are using, right click on "Help", upper left corner of one of the DT application screens. Then select "About DT Profile" to find out what version you are currently using.
To find the DT Group Rotation, at the upper left corner of DT, click on "File" and select either "Default Group Rotation" or "New Group Rotation."
To access the Forex module within DT Group Rotation, click on the down arrow icon to bring up group selection.
Highlight and click on "DT Forex" to load individual Forex pairs Trade Balances currently supported.
You should now see the DT Forex Group Rotation page. This page is propagated with currency pairs Trade Balances.
To see the remaining DT Forex Trade Balances, click on the tab located in the upper left corner area. (see arrow)
If more Forex pairs are added in the future the empty spaces will fill up more.
Let's return to the original page. First thing we look for are those currency pairs with the strongest and most unified colored rooms. This would suggest good up or down trends currently in progress. For example, in this illustration, when this Group Rotation screen was captured earlier this week, the various Australian Dollar pairs, and something like the Euro/Swiss pair, represent stronger currency pair trends in progress based on their mostly bull room colors. A couple pairs stand out as in good weak trends based on their mostly red room colors.
For illustration sake, let's say we want to focus on the Euro/Swiss pair to see if we can find seek our any more insights into its recent trading behavior, or if we can scan for and focus on its next few trade setups.
Take your mouse pointer and highlight the middle section in the Euro/Swiss Trade Balance area. Now double click.
When you highlight the middle section in the Euro/Swiss Trade Balance area and then double click, that currency pair's daily Trade Balance history will show up for the past month.
If watching the Group Rotation room on a daily basis you may be able to identify a clear change in buying or selling behavior earlier. As this behavior continues we began to se early evidence of a potential bigger 'change-in-trend' or even more temporary 'change-in-bias' trends setting up for that currency pair. This "rotation" in or out of a currency pair could be central banks or large currency groups acting. We can use this insight to attempt locking in profits, if needed, or looking earlier for new trend opportunities.
Typically we monitor Group Rotation by keying in on the first two to three rooms, the DA, DB and DC rooms. If the rotation remains consistent, you will see that new color flow into the next higher room. The longer this "new energy" flows, the more rooms we will see changing colors.
If you want to see what a Trade Balance looked like very 6 hours, select "6hr" in the DT Group Rotation tab area.
If you want to see what a Trade Balance looked like very 3 hours, select "3hr" in the DT Group Rotation tab area.
If you want to see what a Trade Balance looked like very 1 hour, select "1hr" in the DT Group Rotation tab area.
This is the most sensitive area where you should be able to identify rotation the quickest.
