THE FULL PRICE CYCLE
Follow the journey from one zone to the other
Each state uses completed-week information available at that point.
Lower zone
Price establishes residence near the bottom of its long-cycle range. Improving EMD separates early repair from continued deterioration.
Upward journey
Price leaves the lower zone while EMD confirms improving participation. The objective is the broader move toward the upper zone, not a short weekly trade.
Upper zone
Price establishes residence near the top of its long-cycle range. This is the profit-harvest area, with EMD watched for exhaustion and loss of support.
Downward journey
Price leaves the upper zone while EMD weakens. The reverse cycle remains active until lower-zone residence is confirmed again.
