Research method
Impulse wave
Impulse wave is a canonical archive-taxonomy method; this registry entry defines its inputs, output and use boundary.
- Output
- Signal
- Input
- OHLC price structure and chart scale
- Horizon
- From intraday to several weeks
- Best use
- Turn a repeatable chart condition into a falsifiable trade hypothesis.
- Input: OHLC price structure and chart scale.
- Output: signal.
- Use boundary: Turn a repeatable chart condition into a falsifiable trade hypothesis.
