How Are Instruments Classified?

June 16, 20261 min read

CTS classifies instruments by analyzing price behavior across multiple timeframes simultaneously. Triple signal analysis examines three independent signal components — when they align, the classification is high-confidence. When they diverge, the instrument is in a transitional state. The classification updates with each new data period, reflecting the market's current behavioral mode.
