Multi-Layer Framework
Pulse Mini organises market behaviour into three simplified structural layers. Each layer captures a different dimension of price movement, and together they form the backbone of Pulse’s behavioural reading.
The goal is simple: understand the environment quickly and focus only on conditions that make sense.
Trend — Direction of Movement
The Trend layer shows the dominant directional bias of the market.
It helps you understand whether the environment favours:
long positions
short positions
or a neutral, cautious stance
A stable, clean trend creates clearer structural conditions. A weakening or flattening trend often signals hesitation and reduced clarity.
Pulse Mini identifies trend as behaviour, not as a moving average or smoothing formula.
Phase — Quality of Movement
The Phase layer reflects how the market is moving within the trend.
It highlights whether the price is in:
expansion
contraction
consolidation
transition
This layer helps you avoid environments where structure becomes unreliable, such as:
tight ranges
unstable mid-points
noisy transitions
With a clean phase, the structure supports action. With a chaotic one, it's better to stay cautious.
Timing — Rhythm and Micro-Structure
The Timing layer captures short-term behaviour and momentum.
It shows whether current conditions support continuation or signal hesitation:
Strong timing → momentum aligns with trend and phase
Weak timing → the market hesitates, exhausts, or fragments
Even in a strong trend, poor timing can weaken the environment.
Timing is not about generating rapid triggers — it is a stability filter that helps avoid reactive or impulsive conditions.
Layer Alignment — The Core of Pulse Mini
You do not need complex rules to read these layers.
Simply observe:
when they align, the structure is clear
when they diverge, the structure weakens or breaks
Aligned layers form naturally. They are not forced by formulas or thresholds. This is what makes Pulse Mini intuitive, stable, and non-repainting.
