Question 1

What is the US Indices Strength Matrix?

Accepted Answer

The US Indices Strength Matrix ranks US index futures (US30 Dow Jones, US100 Nasdaq, US500 S&P 500, US2000 Russell 2000) and Gold (XAUUSD) by their relative intraday and hybrid momentum. It helps traders identify the strongest and weakest instruments to find high-probability trade setups.

Question 2

What is ATR-normalised intraday strength?

Accepted Answer

ATR-normalised intraday strength divides each instrument's session % change by its own Average True Range (ATR) as a percentage of price. This makes all instruments directly comparable on the same scale regardless of their natural volatility — a score of +1.0 means the instrument moved exactly 1 ATR unit from the session open.

Question 3

What is the best index to trade today?

Accepted Answer

The Automatic Best-Trade Detector on this dashboard identifies the highest-momentum instrument by ATR-normalised intraday score, confirmed by hybrid H4+D1 direction alignment, with a confidence rating of High, Medium or Low.

Question 4

What does Risk Sentiment mean on the indices dashboard?

Accepted Answer

Risk-On means 3 or more index instruments are showing bullish D1 bias and Gold is not strong — indicating broad equity strength. Risk-Off means 3 or more instruments are weak or Gold is strong — indicating a defensive or flight-to-safety environment.
