Cross-Indicator Playbooks

Workflows

Twelve cross-indicator workflows that combine 2+ FlowEntry indicators to answer questions no single indicator can answer alone.

How to read this page

Each workflow has a question it answers, an ordered set of steps, a confluence trigger (what high-conviction looks like), and a counter-signal (what tells you to skip). The combinations are not random; they layer count + direction + size, per-coin + market-wide, and historical + live to produce reads no single indicator can produce.

Daily routine

W1: The Morning Check

What is the state of the market right now, and where should I look first?

Steps

  1. Open the BTC chart. Toggle Pulse, D. Momentum, W. Momentum. Three market-wide reads in three histogram panes.
  2. Read the regime: all green / light blue / purple Pulse run is a strong bull regime; mixed gold / mid blue / cyan-pink Pulse is transitional; all red / dark blue / slate Pulse is a quiet bear regime.
  3. Switch to the Scanner (Live). Count ✦ tiles. The “N coins above α” stat is your at-a-glance read of how loud today is.
  4. Look for ✦ + book-direction badges agreeing. ✦ + B:NN% is unusual flow plus bid-stacked book. The cleanest single-tile setups.
  5. Switch to the Scanner 7D. Read the consistent firers (high 🔥×N). Same coins on top of both Live and 7D = trend continuation. Different coins = rotation in progress.
  6. Open the sidebar Trades tab. Read the bot’s open book. Count of trades, max-unrealized magnitudes.
  7. Open the Zones tab. Read the queue, what is being watched for tomorrow’s daily close.

Confluence trigger

Pulse purple + D. Momentum green + W. Momentum light blue + Scanner Live full of ✦ + Trades tab full of high-max-unrealized cards = strong day, lean in.

Counter-signal

Pulse slate + Scanner Live empty + Trades tab thin or all-fresh = quiet, sit on hands until something fires.

Daily routine

W2: End-of-Day Review

What did the bot do today, and was today’s setup tradable?

Steps

  1. Open the Trades tab. Read which new positions opened today (0d cards with no max yet).
  2. Open the Zones tab. Note which zones graduated to ACTIVE (left the queue) and which new zones appeared.
  3. For each new entry, click into the chart. Toggle Trade Markers to see the entry arrow plus candle recolour starting today.
  4. Toggle Sigma, Buy/Sell, Cash Volume Net mode. Read the count, direction, and size of today’s flow on that coin.
  5. Toggle Pulse and D. Momentum. Read the market context of today’s entry.
  6. Triangulate: was the entry in a hot regime (high-confidence) or against the regime (contrarian)?

Confluence trigger

New entry + ✦ Sigma + matching Buy/Sell direction + Cash Volume Net agrees + Pulse purple + D. Momentum aligned = textbook entry, watch it run.

Counter-signal

New entry + Sigma fired but Buy/Sell mismatched + Cash Volume Net flat + Pulse slate = the bot fired the rule but the surrounding signal is thin. Mark as “watch for stop-out”.

Discovery

W3: Scanner-First Triage

I have 5 minutes and no coin picked. What is worth opening?

Steps

  1. Open Scanner Live. Sort visually, top row = most active.
  2. Filter for ✦ + book-direction agreement. ✦ + B:NN% for long bias, ✦ + A:NN% for short bias.
  3. Pick by σ magnitude. Among the dual-signal tiles, the brighter background means louder σ.
  4. Click the top 1 to 3 tiles. On each chart, toggle Sigma, Buy/Sell, Cash Volume. Confirm count + direction + size all agree.
  5. Form a view per coin. All three agree on direction = high-conviction setup. Two agree, one diverges = setup with caveats. Disagree = skip.

Confluence trigger

✦ + book agreeing + Sigma history clean + Buy/Sell matching + Cash Volume Net matching = quadruple agreement. Rare and high-conviction.

Counter-signal

✦ + book opposing (e.g. ✦ with A:NN%) is a “look closer” tile, not a clean trade. See W7.

Why this works. The Scanner pre-filters from 600 coins to 38, then the dual-glow filter narrows to maybe 5 to 10. Three minutes of chart-level confirmation per coin replaces hours of manual scanning.

Discovery

W4: Accumulation Hunt

Are any coins being quietly accumulated without the broader market noticing?

Steps

  1. Confirm a quiet regime first. Pulse cold or pink, D. Momentum red or gold, W. Momentum dark or mid blue. If the market is loud, accumulation gets drowned in noise.
  2. Scanner Live in this regime, most tiles cold. Look for the contrarian ✦ tiles (the few that fired despite the quiet market).
  3. For each contrarian ✦, open the chart and look at: Sigma (gold days clustering recently?), Buy/Sell (green-dominant on those days?), Cash Volume Net (net positive on the gold days?), Book Depth (gold band 1 + gold band 3, the barbell book?), Whale Walls (cyan walls holding under price across refresh cycles?).
  4. Scanner 7D for the same coin: high 🔥×N across the past week confirms recurrence, not a single pop.

Confluence trigger

✦ in a cold regime + clustered gold Sigma days + green Buy/Sell + green Net Cash Volume + barbell Book Depth + holding cyan walls + 🔥×3+ in 7D = the highest-quality accumulation setup the app produces. Rare.

Counter-signal

Single isolated ✦ with no recent Sigma history + book symmetric (no badge) + flat Cash Volume Net = pop, not accumulation.

Setup validation

W5: Trade Validation

I have a coin and a chart pattern I like. Is the flow agreeing?

Steps

  1. Sigma: did flow fire on the breakout/setup day? Gold = yes; gray = no. No gold, abort.
  2. Buy/Sell: which side fired? Match against the breakout direction. Bullish + green = matched. Bullish + red = suspicious.
  3. Cash Volume Net: in dollars, who won the day? Net green and large = real money on the bull side. Net flat or net opposite = count-loud, dollar-thin.
  4. Pulse: was today a market day or a coin day? Pulse purple + your coin’s ✦ = market-wide rotation. Pulse cold + your coin’s ✦ = isolated mover.

Confluence trigger

All four indicators agree on direction + size + market context = highest-conviction validation. The four answer count + direction + size + regime.

Counter-signal

Sigma gray, OR Sigma gold but Buy/Sell mismatched, OR Cash Volume Net flat, OR Pulse cold during a “rotation” thesis = re-evaluate.

Why this works. Most chart patterns are real but unbacked. They happen, but no real money was on them. This four-step chain filters chart-only setups from flow-backed setups in under 60 seconds.

Setup validation

W6: Zone Quality Check

This Sigma gold zone looks interesting. Is it defended or fragile?

Steps

  1. Sigma gold zone exists. That is the precondition.
  2. Read the alert day’s Buy/Sell. Establishes the zone’s origin direction.
  3. Read the alert day’s Cash Volume Buy/Sell mode. Was the dollar weight on the same side as the count? Agreeing = the zone has real money in it.
  4. Book Depth over the days the zone has been visible. Has the book been bid-stacked under the zone (gold) or ask-stacked above (silver)?
  5. Whale Walls live. Cyan wall inside a gold zone with bid-leaning book = Triple Confluence. Pink wall inside with ask-leaning book = Trap Warning.

Confluence trigger

Zone origin direction + book historically agreeing + Triple Confluence wall = highest-quality defended zone.

Counter-signal

Trap Warning tooltip on a wall inside the zone. Treat the zone as a magnet for a stop hunt, not a defence.

Why this works. A Sigma zone is “money showed up here once”. Adding Book Depth answers “the book has been agreeing with this zone over time”. Adding Whale Walls answers “real money is parked here right now”. Three independent checks.

Setup validation

W7: Trap Detection

This breakout is happening. Is it real, or is it a trap I am being lured into?

Steps

  1. Sigma on the breakout day: was there flow at all? No ✦ = no signal, the breakout has no fuel.
  2. Buy/Sell on the breakout day: does the dominant side match the breakout direction? Mismatch is the headline trap signal.
  3. Cash Volume Buy/Sell mode on the breakout day: count vs dollars. Count says sellers, dollars say balanced = hidden absorption (not a trap). Count says buyers, dollars say balanced = hidden distribution (the trap).
  4. Whale Walls live: a wall on the opposite side of the breakout direction sitting just past price. Wall pulling (ghost) right as price reaches it = whale stepping out of the way.
  5. Whale Walls tooltip on any wall inside a Sigma zone: Trap Warning text? That is the explicit trap signal.
  6. Scanner tile: ✦ with opposing book badge = the live book is positioned against the breakout.

Confluence trigger

Sigma fired + Buy/Sell mismatched + Cash Volume Net agreeing with the opposite side of the breakout + Trap Warning tooltip + opposing book on Scanner = high-confidence trap, fade or stand aside.

Counter-signal

All four indicators agree with the breakout direction + walls supporting from behind = real breakout, not a trap.

Why this works. Traps share a signature: count plus price agree, but dollars plus book disagree. Spotting the disagreement requires comparing count-based, dollar-based, and positioning-based indicators.

Market regime

W8: Regime-Change Detection

Is the market actually flipping regimes, or is this just a pullback / counter-trend rally?

Steps

  1. W. Momentum colour transition. Slowest, most reliable, but late. Dark → mid → light blue = bigger bull starting. Light → mid → dark = bigger bear starting (especially after persistent light blue).
  2. D. Momentum colour transition in the same window. Faster, confirms the W. flip is real. Red → gold → green = bull lifecycle. Green → gold → red = bear lifecycle.
  3. Pulse purple cluster around the same dates. Flow confirmation.
  4. Trade Markers across coins. Are bot trades flipping direction? Stop-and-reverses across multiple coins in a short window = the strategy itself is registering the change.
  5. Scanner 30D. Who is leading the change? Coins with 🔥×8+ over the past month are the rotation candidates for the new regime.

Confluence trigger

W. Momentum flip + D. Momentum flip + Pulse purple cluster all in the same 1 to 2 week window = triple-indicator regime change. The rarest, highest-conviction signal in the app.

Counter-signal

D. flipped but W. didn’t = counter-trend rally inside an unchanged bigger trend. Trade with caution.

Why this works. D. Momentum flips fast (single day moves it). Pulse spikes around inflection points but is direction-agnostic. W. Momentum is slow and direction-loaded. When all three line up, the regime change is real.

Market regime

W9: Overheating Watch

Is this bull regime getting too hot? Should I de-risk?

Steps

  1. W. Momentum light blue persistent. Many consecutive weeks. Persistent light blue is itself the warning.
  2. D. Momentum green persistent. Same regime in the daily view.
  3. Pulse recurring purple. The market keeps lighting up, day after day.
  4. Scanner Live: most tiles ✦, most with bid-leaning books. The market is unanimous.
  5. First slip from W. light blue to mid blue. The headline warning. Before W. flips fully to dark, the first mid-blue week is the early signal.
  6. Sigma gold days at the top of charts. Often signals smart money taking profit.
  7. Cash Volume Net flipping red while price drifts up. The dollars are leaving even as the chart still climbs.

Confluence trigger

Persistent W. light blue + Sigma golds at chart highs + Cash Volume Net flipping red + Pulse purple at the top = distribution underway, the run is ending.

Counter-signal

First W. mid-blue is a false slip. Next week comes back light blue + breadth still strong + Cash Volume Net stays green. Stay long.

Why this works. Tops are messy. Price keeps drifting up while the underneath rotates. Reading W. + Sigma + Cash Volume under price tells you the structure is rotting before the chart shows it.

Strategy + postmortem

W10: Bot-Mirror

Should I follow this trade the bot is in?

Steps

  1. Trades tab: pick a card with a high Max Unrealized magnitude.
  2. Click into the chart. Toggle Trade Markers to see the entry arrow plus candle recolour.
  3. Read the entry day’s stack (apply W5: Sigma + Buy/Sell + Cash Volume + Pulse).
  4. Read the regime the entry was made in. Pulse on entry day, plus D. and W. Momentum.
  5. Read the Zones tab for the same coin. Is there a fresh zone queued up that could replace this trade soon?
  6. Whale Walls right now: walls supporting the open trade direction?
  7. Book Depth: has the book been agreeing with the trade direction across days?

Confluence trigger

High max-unrealized + clean entry-day stack + regime-aligned + walls supporting + book agreeing = the bot found a high-quality setup; mirroring is defensible.

Counter-signal

High max-unrealized but entry-day stack was thin + walls now opposing + book has rotated against the trade = the bot is getting lucky on a setup that is rotting underneath.

Why this works. Some bot trades are clean-rule + clean-flow; others are clean-rule + thin-flow that just happened to work. The five-indicator validation separates the two.

Strategy + postmortem

W11: Event Postmortem

Something happened in the market last week (BTC pumped, news event, regime flip). Which coins led, which lagged, what does it tell me?

Steps

  1. Pick the event’s date range. Open Scanner Custom and input from and to.
  2. Read the leaders. Highest 🔥×N tiles = coins that fired most during the event window. Sparkline shape tells you the pattern.
  3. Check Pulse history during the same window. Confirms whether the event was market-wide or asset-specific.
  4. Check D. Momentum and W. Momentum shape during the window. Did the colour shift through the event?
  5. Click into 2 to 3 high-🔥×N leaders. On each chart: Sigma, Buy/Sell, Trade Markers (Trades: All), Cash Volume Net.

Confluence trigger

A short list of “coins that led during X event” with an indicator-backed explanation of why they led. A watchlist for the next similar event.

Counter-signal

No coins with high 🔥×N during the window = the event was thin or asset-specific.

Why this works. Markets pattern-repeat. The coins that led the last regime change often lead the next one. Custom-range postmortems build a personal mental database.

Strategy + postmortem

W12: Why Did That Trade Work (or fail)?

A specific trade closed. Why did it win, or why did it lose?

Steps

  1. Trade Markers in “Trades: All” mode on the coin’s chart. Find the closed trade.
  2. Read the entry day’s stack (W5 chain).
  3. Read the exit day’s stack the same way. What changed between entry and exit?
  4. Inspect the candle recolour period. Did indicators stay supportive, or flip mid-trade?
  5. Read the regime context across the trade duration (D. Momentum, W. Momentum).
  6. Compare max-unrealized vs realised P&L. If max was big and realised was small, the bot’s exit logic gave back the move. Different lesson than “the setup failed”.

Confluence trigger

A clear answer to “did the setup work and the exit fail” vs “the setup never had real flow behind it” vs “the regime changed mid-trade”.

Counter-signal

No clear answer = data is too thin or the trade was inside a chop window. Mark as inconclusive.

Why this works. Postmortems blur three different failure modes: bad setup, bad exit, regime change. The five-indicator + max-vs-realised comparison separates them.
