Price has only two behaviors: trends or consolidations.
It is also fractal by nature, repeating the same geometric patterns within themselves on different scales.
We observe at least three PhiCube fractals simultaneously. If they are all moving up together, it's a pure uptrend. If they are all moving down together, its a pure downtrend. If any are opposing the others, it's a consolidation.
Here you can see a practicable application of our PVPC indicator showing the 72bar, 30bar, and 1292bar fractals. The 72 is a medium fractal. The 305 is a large fractal. The 1292 is a giant fractal.
Put this indicator on any chart and observe the dynamic. We like to use the GIANT PARTY analogy. Price cannot stand still, and the pros always are looking to win big money and party hard. They know that a GIANT TREND will do this for them.
The 1292 green line is the GREEN GIANT'S DOOR. The 1292 red line is the RED GIANT'S DOOR. If price and all green lines go above and 1292 green, we have a huge uptend (party for the buyers)that can go to the moon. If price and all red lines go below the 1292 red, we have a huge downtrend (party for the sellers) that can go to zero.
In between the 1292 green and 1292 red is a huge consolidation. One analogy is a large, congested city. The green giant lives on the north side. The red giant lives on the south side.
When price leaves the red giant's party, it will travel across town to the green giant's door, and vice versa. To arrive at its destination, price will need help, first by the 72bar fractal, then by the 305 bar fractal. This sequence is analygous to price gaining more and more energy in order to arrive at it's destiny.
The same happens when price leaves the green giant's party. It will try to gain the 72bar fractal and then the 305bar fractal to help it on its journey to the red giant's door.
Along the journey, price will encounter many conflicts, fights, threats to its intenion. It will measure the ease or difficulty to cross the city, normally resting in downtown to evaluate it's chances to move on or go back.
Keep this dynamic in mind as you observe the PhiCube PVPC indicator on your favorite ticker or timeframe. As do all PhiCube indicators, PVPC on any chart, any ticker, any market.
