Recon: Cognitive Load Reducer (Patent Pending)

Recon is a patent-pending cognitive load reducer—a new category of trading tool. It synthesizes data from all other indicators into a single, easy-to-read table with plain English market descriptions, reducing mental effort while keeping you in control.

What Recon Does

Recon brings together momentum (Rush), volume pressure (Venom), trend (Strike), support/resistance (Fangs), chop detection (Coil), divergence (Snap), and statistical analysis (Pulse) into one comprehensive dashboard. Instead of numbers, it tells you what's happening in words.

Key Features

  • Narrative Descriptions - Plain English market analysis like "Strong bullish momentum building" or "Sellers losing control"
  • Multi-Factor Summary - All key metrics in one table
  • Smart Filtering - Only shows active/relevant information
  • Color-Coded Status - Quick visual scan of market conditions

Dashboard Sections

Momentum Status

Shows direction (BULLISH/BEARISH/NEUTRAL), strength percentage, and whether momentum is RISING, FALLING, or FLAT.

Trend Status

Current trend direction from Strike cloud, whether price is above/below cloud, and trend strength assessment.

Volume Pressure

Who's in control (BUYERS/SELLERS/CONTESTED), pressure level, and flow direction from Venom.

Market State

CHOP/CAUTION/CLEAR status from Coil, helping you know when to trade and when to wait.

S/R Proximity

Nearest support and resistance levels from Fangs, with distance to each.

Warnings

Active divergence warnings from Snap and Venom, high termination pressure from Pulse.

Best Practices

  • Use Recon as your "pre-flight checklist" before any trade
  • Look for alignment across multiple sections before entering
  • Pay attention to warnings—they often precede reversals
  • Check market state (CLEAR) before trusting other signals

Settings

  • Sensitivity - Low/Normal/High controlling analysis sensitivity
  • Lower TF 1 & 2 - Lower timeframes for multi-timeframe analysis
  • Higher TF 1 & 2 - Higher timeframes for multi-timeframe analysis
  • Table Position - Where to display the dashboard
  • Table Width - Number of columns (2-6)
