SigmaPulse Navigator

The **zSigma Pulse Navigator** is a comprehensive, "Regime-Based" algorithmic trading tool designed for TradingView. Unlike standard technical indicators that generate continuous buy or sell signals regardless of market conditions, the zSigma Pulse functions primarily as a **market filter**. It first mathematically classifies the market environment as either "Efficient" (Trending) or "Inefficient" (Choppy) and only unlocks specific trading signals that are statistically valid for that specific state.

It is constructed from three distinct computational "engines" that work in unison to eliminate false signals:

### 1. The Regime Engine (The Filter)
The foundation of the zSigma Pulse is the **Choppiness Index (CI)**. The algorithm uses this to quantify the "Fractal Dimension" of price action.
* **Trend Mode (Green/Red Background):** If the Chop Index falls below a specific threshold (default 50), the system declares a Trend. The chart background lights up Green (Bullish) or Red (Bearish), permitting breakout strategies.
* **Chop Mode (Grey Background):** If the Chop Index rises above the threshold, the background turns Grey. This signals consolidation, warning the trader to ignore breakout signals and focus on mean reversion.

### 2. The Consensus Engine (The Vote)
To determine momentum direction, the indicator employs a proprietary "Voting System" that aggregates three independent indicators: **ADX** (Trend Strength), **RSI** (Momentum), and **SuperTrend** (Price Action).
* **The "2-out-of-3" Rule:** A directional signal (e.g., a Green Cloud) is only generated if at least **two** of these three engines agree. This consensus mechanism filters out "fake-outs" where price might move (SuperTrend) but lacks the internal energy (ADX) to sustain the move.

### 3. The Volatility Engine (The Cloud)
The tool visualises volatility through a **Dynamic Range**—a shaded cloud that expands and contracts based on market noise.
* It typically uses **Bollinger Bands** (based on Standard Deviation) or **Keltner Channels** (based on ATR).
* **In Trends:** The cloud expands, and the bottom of the cloud acts as a dynamic trailing stop.
* **In Chop:** The cloud contracts, creating a visual channel where traders can "buy the dip" (Diamond signals) at the bottom of the range.

### Key Features and Defaults
* **Institutional Tuning:** The indicator is hardcoded with "smart" defaults rather than standard retail settings. For example, it utilizes an **EMA 27** (a Fibonacci-adjacent number) rather than the standard 20 or 50 Moving Average, designed to catch institutional trends earlier.
* **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Stack:** It automatically plots higher-timeframe Moving Averages (e.g., Weekly and Monthly lines) onto the Daily chart. This allows traders to ensure their trades align with the dominant structural trend without switching tabs.
* **Signal Shapes:**
* **Triangles:** Signal a **Breakout** (Trend Following).
* **Diamonds:** Signal a **Mean Reversion** entry (buying the bottom of the range in a pullback).

### Analogy
Think of the zSigma Pulse Navigator as a **sophisticated voltmeter** for the market.
Just as you wouldn't plug a sensitive appliance into an unstable power outlet, this tool measures the "current" of the market. If the volatility is erratic (Grey/Chop), it cuts the circuit to protect your capital. It only gives you the "Green Light" to trade when the voltage (Momentum) is stable and flowing in one direction.
