ZenAlgo - Zen

Zen is a multi-layer directional model built around four core lines, pressure, and confidence. It helps separate permission to trade from timing to execute, so an attractive directional bias is not mistaken for an immediate entry.

How to read it

Start with the four core lines:

  • ZEN is the main composite state.
  • GRAVITY describes the force pulling the state.
  • ANCHOR provides a slower reference.
  • ORBIT shows the surrounding directional cycle.

Read their position around zero and the ±1 to ±5 levels. Greater distance from zero means a more unusual state, but also a potentially more extended one. Then inspect Long Confidence, Short Confidence, and signal pressure to see whether the directional idea has enough support.

Lines, labels, and states

VisualMeaning
ZEN / GRAVITY / ANCHOR / ORBITCore directional and cyclical model
Delta positive / negative plotsDirectional pressure split by sign
0 and ±1...±5 levelsNeutral baseline and strength/extreme references
Long / Short ConfidenceCurrent support for each direction
Long / Short labelDirectional setup is present
Score labelSetup includes its current score
Opening C / FOpening condition from the corresponding model tier
Wait Confirm / Retest / TimingDirection is interesting, but execution should wait

The distinction between Allowed and Execute is important. Allowed means the directional filter permits the trade; Execute means the timing condition has also arrived.

Alerts

Zen exposes 17 alert conditions:

GroupAlerts
ExecutionExecute Long, Execute Short
PermissionLong Allowed, Short Allowed
Waiting statesWait Confirm, Wait Retest, Wait Timing
Level burstsBull Level Burst, Bear Level Burst
Labels and scoresLong Label, Short Label, Long Score Label, Short Score Label
Opening statesOpening Long C, Opening Short C, Opening Long F, Opening Short F

Use Allowed alerts for watchlist preparation and Execute alerts for timing. Waiting-state alerts explain why a directional idea is not yet executable and can prevent premature entries.
