Chris Kryza's cyclePack

This unique collection of cycle analysis tools and indicators is brought to you by Divergence Software, Inc. cyclePack uses state-of-the-art digital signal processing (DSP) techniques to extract the cycles that exist in your financial data and gauge their significance. This information is then used to make projections as to how the security you are currently charting is likely to behave in the future.

Cycles are present in all time series and in all time frames. Whether you know it or not, you make decisions based on cycles every trading day. Each time you add an indicator to your chart and set the length of that indicator, you are making a decision based on cycles. Each time you make a determination that a particular security will either start turning up in price or begin heading down, you are making a decision based (at least in part) on cycles. Cycles are everywhere in our price data.

Cycle analysis is the process of cleaning and filtering a time series (in our case, a series of security price data) and applying spectrum analysis techniques to extract the cyclical content. Once the cyclical components have been revealed, we can examine them and isolate the strongest and / or “best-behaved” cycles. With that information in hand, we can then make educated projections in terms of how the security being analyzed will behave in the future. Cycle analysis can be a powerful tool when used in conjunction with existing technical analysis indicators and methods.

cyclePack consists of four indicators that perform slightly different tasks:

• cycleAnalyzer -- The cornerstone of the cyclePack collection, it displays the individual cycles extracted from your price data in a graphical format.
• cycleProjector -- The cycleProjector takes the individual cycles and combines them into a synthetic time series and projects this time series into the future. It is useful for highlighting significant near-term turning points and can also provide a good estimate of overall direction.
• cycleProjectorXT -- This indicator is identical in function to the cycleProjector, except that it uses a more detailed approach to extract the cycles and create the synthetic time series.
• cycleMABands -- This indicator uses Linear Prediction algorithms to assist in the creation of Hurst-type price channels.

For more detailed information, read an article on cyclePack or access how-to-use documentaion on cyclePack.

Day Trading Action Study

The Day Trading Action Study, also known as the "High Five," consists of the following indicators:

• The NASDAQ Composite Index (the "NAZ")
• The TRIN
• The VIX
• The TICK index
• MER (Merrill Lynch Stock)

Together, these five indicators can paint a clear picture of the market's mood and direction for that session. When they all point in the same direction, you are ill-advised to ignore them, and, when they give a mixed picture, you can often save time and money by staying flat.

eMESA Trading System

eMESA is an easy-to-trade mechanical system specifically designed to trade the S&P E-Mini contract. It is very robust, with back testing history from 1996. In the last year, it has returned more than 150 percent profit on a $10,000 account. eMESA uses the opening range breakout method first popularized by Tony Crabel in 1990, enhanced with dynamic adjustments using volatility and trend parametrics. You get a reversal signal for the next day’s trading, so you are always in the market both long and short. Trade duration is 2.5 days on the average. Because the signal generation is generic, eMESA can successfully trade a wide range of market indices and exchange traded funds (ETFs), such as the DOW, Russell, SPY, DIA and QQQ.

The eMini-Master POLR

The eMini-Master™ POLR© series developed by Jim Harrison is a unique and powerful set of tools with a visual approach to finding the “POLR©”, or “Path of Least Resistance©.” Most of these tools are universal in their application, and traders can use them on their favorite symbols, including the CME e-Mini Futures, Forex currency pairs, bonds, commodities and individual equities.

Also included are our Critical Time Zones module and 2 Program Trading Modules designed exclusively for the CME e-Mini Futures. These powerful indicators alert astute traders to those times of day when we expect “action,” along with those times when institutional program trading is most likely and gives both a visual and audio alert.

A cost less than 2 eMini-S&P points per month, extensive toll free support, unlimited access to training videos and live training events make this add-on package a true no-brainer. It is like having an experienced trading assistant right there with you all day, everyday.

The eMini-Master POLR series includes:

Hamzei Analytics

Hamzei Analytics, LLC has expanded its Partners Program with eSignal to include eight of its coveted indicators, CI, DCI, CI Diff, DV and IVBO, and the "HotSpots" in the EFS 2.0 format. Using these indicators will enable you to see why Hamzei Analytics (www.HamzeiAnalytics.com) is the first choice of professional traders and hedge fund / institutional money managers.

The Central Intelligence (CI) study is ideally suited for trend- and momentum-based trading. It's configured to respond properly for intraday trend detection during the opening hours of the trading day. This is the ideal momentum indicator for day trading high-beta stocks, sector ETFs or futures on a gap-up or gap-down day.

The Dual CI (DCI) study can be used to look for non-conforming bullish and bearish divergences. Because the inputs of the DCI indicator are user-definable, the user can manipulate and / or optimize it for different markets and / or different bar intervals. A divergence occurs when a price revisits a recent channel breakout high or breakdown low while the accompanying indicator fails to do so. Market technicians call it a non-confirmation. Divergence typically provides entry points with an acceptable risk-to-reward ratio.

The Central Intelligence Difference (CI Diff) study is an anticipatory derivative indicator of the CI Indicator. For high leverage trades, the CI Diff Indicator acts as an early warning for upcoming trends in the CI Indicator.

The Directional Volatility (DV) study is an indicator that helps you avoid being in the markets during Small Range days and, rather, focus on taking a 70% chunk out of a directional move during the Big Range days.

The Intraday Volume Break Out (IVBO) study helps you identify upcoming moves during seemingly sleepy hours of the markets, hours often used by smart money / hedge funds to mask their true trading intent (i.e., accumulation / distribution).

"HotSpots", a Special Application of the Daily, Weekly and Monthly Support, Pivot and Resistance Indicator (SPRD, SPRW and SPRM). Support, Pivot and Resistance Indicators are previous-bar-volatility-based indicators used for years by floor traders (daily bars) and professional traders (weekly and monthly bars).Often, you will see high volumes when the asset approaches these price levels. Hamzei Analytics uses these price objectives as stop management and profit target levels instead of using the traditional fixed price money management habits of the past. The beauty of the code presented here is that it has intelligence to correctly detect the trading calendar and adjusts accordingly for the following period.

John Ehlers' MESA Indicators

The MESA Indicators allow you to view the market in a whole new way. The indicators accurately measure the frequency spectrum and identify the dominant cycle. Most oscillators give late signals, but the Sine / LeadSine indicators anticipate the turning points of the dominant cycle. The Phase indicator shows the market position within the period of the measured dominant cycle. By subtracting the cycle component from the price movement, a low lag Instantaneous Trendline is created. This Trendline identifies the onset and termination of trend movement.

The MESA Indicator studies available for add-on to eSignal are:

• Dominant Cycle
• Phase
• Sine and LeadSine
• Instantaneous Trendline and Minimum Lag Smoother

Access how-to-use information on the MESA Indicators, as well as an introduction and user's guide to eMESA, an introduction to the MESA Indicators and an article by John Ehlers on understanding market cycles.

The Triades

The Triades is a technical analysis model aimed at pinpointing where a market reversal is, objectively measuring the natural movement of the market in percentage points. It generates real-time buying and selling alerts. A reward / risk ratio is associated with any signals.

Triades measures bearish and bullish movements of the market in percentage, enabling investors to get the probability of success to reach a target price. It can be applied to any financial product (futures, Forex, interest rates, commodities, equities) and can be calculated on any time frame (1-, 15-, 60-, ..., -minute, daily, ..., monthly).

This technical analysis module operates based on three basic elements from swing trading: Pivots (extreme points of a market’s fluctuation either up or down), swings (price fluctuations) and the three bars, which have been developed into "triades" that may include inner bars within the three main bars. The module only takes into account the highest and lowest bars and is not statistically based.

"Triades" subscribers also receive free advice on Forex, fixed income, crude and equities indices via email in a specific format (for example, DJ Eurostoxx 50 / time frame 200 / Long 442364 / Stop 439900 / Target 448550).

eSignal subscribers who add The Triades to their subscription are able to access the web link alerts through the Research menu of the eSignal application.

WaveTracker and WaveTracker PRO

Price-action is a key to successful trading. Indicators lag; price-action does not. If you know how to read price-action in markets, you can consistently trade to win. Price-action is the language of the markets. Learn to read it, speak it and embrace it, and you will hear the market telling you where it is most probably best to go. The smart money traders trade off price-action pattern points.

WaveTracker assists you in analyzing price-action in markets. It will show you that the language of price-action has market structure as consonants and market geometry as vowels. To analyze market structure and geometry, you look at:

• Alternate Wave Equality (Elliott Wave AWE patterns)
• Fibonacci retracements and extensions
• Support and resistance
• Common patterns (hooks, rectangles, triangles and breakouts)
• Volume
• Confluences of the above (WaveTracker PRO)

WaveTracker is your assistant in analyzing price-action. WaveTracker:

• Labels waves with highs, lows and wave lengths
• Computes and graphically displays all Elliott Wave AWE pattern
• Automates Fibonacci levels for each wave
• Identifies balance points and floor trader pivots
• Illuminates evening session highs and lows, along with range-of-day Fibonacci levels
• Provides audio alerts when volume occurs and key levels are reached
• Identifies confluences of the above (WaveTrackerPRO)

In the accompanying example trade setup using WaveTracker on a 5-minute chart of the S&P E-Mini contract on June 24, 2005, the ‘D’ point of the AWE pattern, 1200.25, was a sell point based on price-action consisting of a confluence of 3 patterns of market structure, geometry and support / resistance. Each pattern added to the reasons to be selling 1200.25. The patterns at 1200.25 (within a tick) are:

• +4.00 Elliott AWE pattern
• 50 % retracements of wave from 1205.00 to 1196.00
• Previous support turned into resistance at 1200.25/1200.50

The market cooperated and swiftly fell 7 points to a previous low of 1193.50. These types of patterns occur every single day in the S&P Emini and in all other highly liquid markets.

All waves, Fibonacci levels and Elliott AWE pattern points update in real time. Performance is superb; you can run up to 10 charts simultaneously with WaveTracker. WaveTracker supports all symbols and all markets available through eSignal.
