The Process Beyond Market Regimes
Market regimes are built upon market indicator signals, categorized into trend, trend quality, and sentiment indicators. These signals are then organized by different timeframes (ranging from short- to long-term) and aggregated into Market Health Indicators, assessing the underlying technical condition for given time horizons.
By combining short- to mid-term and mid-term to long-term Market Health Indicator readings, the specific market regime is determined. The Tactical Market Regime is constructed upon the combination of short- to mid-term market health, while the Strategic Market Regime is based on the combination of mid- to long-term market health. This information is valuable for both short-term traders (Tactical Market Regime) and buy-and-hold oriented investors (Strategic Market Regime), aiding them in making informed decisions based on market conditions.
The Process Beyond Market Regimes Score Boards
Market regimes are built upon market indicator signals, categorized into trend, trend quality, and sentiment indicators. These signals are then organized by different timeframes (ranging from short- to long-term) and aggregated into Market Health Indicators, assessing the underlying technical condition for given time horizons. Scores on a scale of 0 to 100% represent the positivity of signals within the respective timeframe. A threshold of 50% is used to distinguish positive and negative scores. Scores below 50% indicate a negative outlook, signifying potential market weaknesses. Conversely, scores above 50% indicate positive market health, signaling favorable conditions.

The Process Beyond Market Health Indicators
Market Health indicators combine trend, trend quality, smart-/dumb money and sentiment signals across different timeframes (short- to long-term). Scores on a 0 to 100% scale represent signal positivity. Below 50% indicate a negative outlook, while above 50% signal positive market health.
The Indicator Dashboard provides a single, color-coded chart that displays the underlying signals from market health indicators for the past 6 weeks. The signals are organized by category and ranked by timeframe, making it easy to visually analyze market health conditions
Measures short-term trend momentum by comparing two exponential zero-lag moving averages of different time periods. In a strong short-term trend, the shorter-term moving average should show a faster rise or fall than the longer-term moving average.
The Commitment of Traders (COT) report is a weekly publication that provides insights into the positions of different types of traders in futures markets. It categorizes traders as commercial (considered “Dumb Money”), non-commercial (such as hedge funds, seen as “Smart Money”), and small traders (“Dumb Money”). Empirical evidence supports the idea that “Smart Money” has an informational edge and leads trends, while “Dumb Money” lags.
Market Regimes are determined by analyzing net Smart Money Positions relative to their maximum positions within three different timeframes (CoT Index). CoT Index values on a scale of 0 to 100% represent the positivity of signals within the respective timeframe. The scoreboard utilizes stars for each market’s smart money positions (up to 4 stars maximum) to enhance readability. By combining short- to mid-term and mid-term to long-term Smart Money Positions, the specific market regime is determined. This information is valuable for both short-term traders and buy-and-hold investors, helping them make informed decisions based on market conditions.
