Below is a brief explanation and sample of Wave3's PhiCubeBTL™ and PhiCubeOver2™ Daily Advisory Service:

PhiCubeBTL™ and PhiCubeOver2™ are based on our interpretation of the natural movement of price per the fundamentals of Elliott Wave theory (trends, consolidations, fractals, Fibonacci number series, trendlines).

First and foremost, PhiCubeBTL™ is a trend rating system...basically because at Wave3, we believe strongly in the trend following method of trading. We created a unique and highly effective way to rate the trend strength of any stock/index using standard and proprietary accumulating (lagging) and oscillating (leading) indicators. Using Worden Brothers' award winning TCNet software, we combined our unique method of interpreting indicators with binary logic and sophisticated algorithms designed to model price's natural movement.

The result is a simple number from 0 to 7, defining various degrees of trend strength. 0 is a very strong downtrend. 7 is a very strong uptrend. 1 through 6 define six different degrees of consolidations. What's interesting about this concept, is that is boils all the complexity of the markets down to four basic decisions: buy long, cover long, sell short, cover short...and the rating of the trend, from 0 to 7, guages the risk associated with trade decision.

For traders who accompany both interday and intraday charts, once you understand the logic behind PhiCubeBTL™, you will never need another trading system. Our daily advisory service is based on end-of-day data, but PhiCubeBTL™ logic is applicable to all timeframes as long as the proper fractal separation is maintained. If PhiCubeBTL™ suggests a trend in the daily chart, stay with it, but if a consolidation on the daily chart is suggested, traders can dive down into the intraday charts to identify, rate, and trade trends on the next lower degree fractal.

Since PhiCubeBTL™ is a trend following system, it is slightly lagging by nature and cannot pinpoint reversals. Actually, this is its strength, as it keeps traders in the game as long as a trend exists while providing confirmed trade signals very close to the reversal points. But some traders, without access to intraday charts to clarify the behavior of lower fractal waves, want more accuracy in their analysis between trade signals...

Our answer is PhiCubeOver2™. We discovered that the half cycle of PhiCube is also extremely pertinent to accurate technical analysis and we harnessed this concept to create ratings for subtrend strength and whipsaw probability based on this half cycle. With this system, we can tell you in no uncertain terms if price is within a whipsaw zone or not. This improves the effectiveness of our system but helping us determine if the trend or consolidation currently underway is likely to continue, end, or reverse.

One of the most interesting results of PhiCubeBTL™ and PhiCubeOver2™ is that by applying binary logic, we construct a well defined path that each rating system must follow. A rating of 0 for instance, can never become a 7 instantaneously. It has to pass through a logical path to get there. This is our contribution to society that proves that markets do not move randomly.

Additionally, PhiCubeBTL™ and PhiCubeOver2™ are simple, extremely effective, and highly optimized. Because they are based on the fundamentals of both Elliott Wave theory (nature's law for the movement of price based on the cycling emotions of greed and fear) and trend following techniques, our systems clearly identify trends, consolidations, whipsaws conditions, probable reversal points, and discrete trade signals accurately and without ambiguity. Think about that...Elliott Wave analysis without the ambiguity! This takes all of the doubt out of trading (which is the goal of every mechanical trading system), so that traders never have to second guess the market again.

To improve trading accuracy, we hone in a bit further, calculating the exact FUTURE price that will cause a daily buy/sell signal. Then by comparing this future price with the daily closing price and volatility of any particular security, we can calculate the estimated number of trading days until the trade signal. You can ANTICIPATE where and when the daily trend will change. We then calculate the number of estimated days for the entire index to flash a signal.

Weekly trade signals, targets, and estimated time to signal are also provided for those traders/investors who do not care about the daily noise. We recommend, however, that you pay particular attention to the weekly signals, as it is not wise to be on the wrong side of the weekly trend!

Here is a brief description of the spreadsheet columns:

Ticker Stock, index, industry, or ETF symbol
P3

PhiCubeBTL™ composite trend rating: This number has five digits and varies from 77777 (strong uptrend in all indicators) to 00000 (strong downtrend in all indicators).

Each digit represents a different technical indicator and has a range of 0 through 7. 0 is a strong downtrend and appears in red. 7 is a strong uptrend and appears in green. 1 through 6 are consolidations of one or more fractals, and appear in yellow.

The first digit, on the left, is based on exponential moving averages (EMA). Since EMA is based solely upon price, this is a principal digit in the P3 rating.

The second digit from the left is based on stochastics (STO). STO is also based only on price, and is also a principal digit in the P3 rating.

The third digit from the left is based on Worden's Cumulative Money Stream (MS). It is based on price and volume, and is very valuable at showing weakening momentum by divergence.

The fourth digit from the left is based on Worden's Time Segmented Volume (TSV). It is also based on price and volume, and is very useful in showing waning momentum by divergence.

The last digit, on the right, is based on Wilder's RSI, a price based indicator, also capable of showing weakening momentum.

Odds favor a buy when this rating is 77777. Odds favor a short sale when this rating is 00000. Any other combination means all indicators do not suggest a strong trend and requires caution.

O2

PhiCubeOver2™ composite trend rating: This number has seven digits and varies from 3333333 (strong uptrend in all half fractals) to 0000000 (strong downtrend in all half fractals).

Each digit represents a different half fractal and has a range of 0 to 3. 0 means the half fractal is in a downtrend in both EMA and STO and appears in red. 3 means the half fractal is in an uptrend in both EMA and STO and appears in green. 1 and 2, in yellow, mean that the half fractal is consolidating in either EMA or STO or both.

The leftmost digit is the largest half fractal. The rightmost digit is the smallest half fractal. This rating always changes from left to right, with the smallest fractals changing character first.

Just remember "Three strikes and you're out". If the rightmost digit is a red zero, it's a warning. Two red zeros to the right are the minimum requirements for a sell signal. And if you see three red zeros to the right, you must be flat. With four red zeros to the right, you may sell short.

Odds favor a buy when this rating is 3333333. Odds favor a short sale when this rating is 0000000. Any other combination means all half fractals are not aligned for a strong trend and requires caution.

DW

PhiCube Daily Whipsaw rating: This number has two digits and varies from 77 (buy) to 00 (sell).

Each digit represents a technical condition relative to price's whipsaw range. The first digit is based on EMA. The second is based on STO. Both digits have a range of 0 to 7.

00 means price is whipsaw free and meets the technical conditions for a sell in both EMA and STO.

77 means price is whipsaw free and meets the technical requirments for a buy in both EMA and STO.

Any other combination means that whipsaw conditions exist in either EMA or STO or both.

WZ

PhiCube Whipsaw Zone rating: This number has two digits and varies from 77(above whipsaw zone) to 00 (below whipsaw zone).

Each digit measures where price is relative to its current whipsaw range. The first digit is based on EMA. The second is based on STO. Both digits have a range of 0 to 7.

00 means price is below the whipsaw zone and meets the technical conditions for a sell in both EMA and STO.

77 means price is above the whipsaw zone and meets the technical requirments for a buy in both EMA and STO.

Any other combination means that price is inside its whipsaw zone in either EMA or STO or both.

BL Buy Long - a signal to buy long based on the change of the P3 rating for the the daily timeframe. This signal can be generated by EMA, STO, or both. The most reliable signal occurs when both EMA and STO flash together. An EMA signal is designated by 100. The STO signal is 200. The combined signal is 300. Signals should always be evaluated using DW to determine if whipsaw conditions exist or not.
CL

Close Long - a signal to close long positions and go flat based on the change of the P3 rating for the daily timeframe. This signal can be generated by EMA, STO, or both. The most reliable signal occurs when both EMA and STO flash together. An EMA signal is designated by 100. The STO signal is 200. The combined signal is 300. Signals should always be evaluated using DW to determine if whipsaw conditions exist or not.

SS Sell Short - a signal to sell short based on the change of the P3 trend rating for the daily timeframe. This signal can be generated by EMA, STO, or both. The most reliable signal occurs when both EMA and STO flash together. An EMA signal is designated by 100. The STO signal is 200. The combined signal is 300. Signals should always be evaluated using DW to determine if whipsaw conditions exist or not.
CS Cover Short - a signal to cover short positions and go flat based on the change of the P3 trend rating for the daily timeframe. This signal can be generated by EMA, STO, or both. The most reliable signal occurs when both EMA and STO flash together. An EMA signal is designated by 100. The STO signal is 200. The combined signal is 300. Signals should always be evaluated using DW to determine if whipsaw conditions exist or not.
WB Weekly Buy - buy long based on the weekly trade signal. There is no distinction between buy long or cover short positions. We never trade against the weekly trend. This signal is very useful at spotting important intermediate term trend changes, such as when the EMA or STO daily trend rating changes from a 1 (cover short or risky long) to a 3 (conservative long). If we get this signal, we cover short positions and/or buy long...period.
WS Weekly Sell - sell short based on a weekly trade signal. There is no distinction between sell short or cover long positions. We never trade against the weekly trend. This signal is very useful at spotting important intermediate term trend changes, such as when the daily trend rating changes from a 6 (cover long or risky short) to a 4(conservative short). If we get this signal, we close long positions and/or sell short...period.
Close Closing price - to compare with SAR8 and SAR17 to determine whipsaw conditions and trailing stop loss selection.

SAR8

SAR17

PhiCube Stop and Reverse - the future closing price that will cause a trade signal.

SAR8 represents the fast boundary of the whipsaw zone. It is an excellent trailing stop loss level, but sometimes leads to whipsaws because of its sensitivity.

SAR17 represents the slow boundary of the whipsaw zone. It is less sensitve than SAR8, eliminating most whipsaws but flashing trade signals further from the reversal points. One must never be on the wrong side of SAR17.

When price is above both SAR8 and SAR17, WZ will show a 77rating.

When price is below both SAR8 and SAR17, WZ will show a 00 rating.

When price is between SAR8 and SAR17, it is in the whipsaw zone. WZ will show a yellow 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 in one or both of its digits.

DXR8

DXR17

PhiCube Daily crossover ratio - the estimated number of trading days until a trade signal will be generated on the daily chart.

DXR8 is the estimated number of days until price will hit the SAR8 boundary. DXR17 is the estimated number of days until price will hit the SAR17 boundary.

A positive number means price is above SAR and that any CLOSING price below SAR will cause a sell signal. A negative number means price is currently below SAR and that any CLOSING price above SAR will cause a buy signal.

When DXR8 and DXR17 have opposite signs (i.e. one black and one red ), price is in a whipsaw zone.

Any DXR between 1 and -1 suggests that a signal could be generated any time in the following trading day, but can only be confirmed at the close of the next trading day.

ROC8

ROC17

Rate of Change: the slope of the 8EMA and 17EMA. We use this tool to determine relative trend strength of one ticker to another based on the 8day and 17day fractals. If you maintain a watchlist with P3 ratings of 77777, this tool will tell you which of them is the strongest and which is the weakest based on their slope. This number is expressed as a percentage change. A ROC of 2, for instance, is a 2% per day rate of change.
