Global Financial Markets Insights by Dr. Glen Brown

As traders, we often see price charts, indicators, and technical signals. But what if we could view the markets as a reflection of energy, frequency, and vibration? Drawing inspiration from Nikola Tesla’s theory, we can align these principles with our trading philosophy to better understand market dynamics. This alignment allows traders to elevate their strategies beyond surface-level analysis and tap into the deeper forces at play.

In the Global Algorithmic Trading Software (GATS) methodology, we go beyond the traditional approach of technical indicators and embrace a higher-dimensional perspective—one where energy, frequency, and vibration are integrated to shape market movements.

1. Energy: The Fuel Behind Market Movements

Markets are driven by energy, which reflects the collective actions of participants. As price moves through various EMA Zones, we witness the flow of this energy. For example, when price is within the Momentum Zone (EMA 1-8), we know that energy is strong and volatility is high. Conversely, when price is within the Value Zone (EMA 26-50), energy slows as the market consolidates.

• GATS 369 Channel: The x3, x6, and x9 levels represent varying degrees of energy. When price is near the x9 channel, it indicates that energy has reached an extreme boundary.
• ATR Expansion: ATR (Average True Range) measures the intensity of this energy. When ATR expands, energy is high, indicating volatility. The 12x ATR stop-loss accounts for this expanded energy, allowing the trend to fully develop without premature exits.

2. Frequency: The Rhythm of Market Cycles

The EMA Zones reflect the rhythm or frequency of price movements. Faster frequencies occur in the Momentum Zone as markets move quickly, while slower frequencies are found in the Value Zone as the market stabilizes.

• Global Quick Daily MACD (6, 9, 3): This indicator captures the rhythm of shorter-term price movements, particularly useful for fast-moving markets. The alignment with Tesla’s 369 Theory makes it an ideal tool for detecting subtle shifts in market rhythm across all timeframes.

3. Vibration: The Pulse of Market Sentiment

The emotional undercurrents of fear, greed, and optimism create vibrations within the market. These vibrations are reflected in price fluctuations and can be measured through indicators like Heiken Ashi Candles.

• Market Sentiment: The vibration of sentiment is most evident in trending markets. When price aligns with the GATS 369 Channel and vibrates near the x3 or x6 level, it often indicates the beginning or continuation of a trend. As the market approaches x9, vibrations weaken, signaling trend exhaustion or reversal.

The GATS Trading Psychology Framework: Manifesting Success

By incorporating the principles of energy, frequency, and vibration into our trading psychology, we develop a holistic framework for success. In this model, we align Tesla’s 3, 6, and 9 with three key psychological pillars:

1. Desire/Intention (3)

This represents the first step in trading: the desire or intention to succeed. Before any trade, a trader must have clear goals and objectives.

• GATS Application: Desire manifests in how traders approach the market, starting with their decision to trade a particular asset. Before placing a trade, traders must answer critical questions: What is the state of the asset? What is the market’s volatility? What is the risk per trade?

2. Harmonizing and Shaping (6)

This stage involves shaping the trade through alignment with the market’s energy, frequency, and vibration.

• GATS Application: At this point, traders harmonize their entries and exits with the market’s rhythm. Tools like the Global Quick Daily MACD (6, 9, 3) and the GATS 369 Channel are instrumental in shaping these decisions, ensuring the trader enters in sync with the market’s movements.

3. Manifestation (9)

The final stage is the manifestation of success, achieved by allowing the market’s energy and vibration to guide the trade to its full potential.

• GATS Application: Through the use of Dynamic Adaptive ATR Trailing Stops (DAATS), traders manifest long-term success by letting their profits run while cutting losses early. The 12x ATR stop-loss is a tool that ensures trades have room to develop fully, while the GATS 369 Channel helps traders identify overbought or oversold levels, allowing them to adjust their strategies accordingly.

ATR Expansion and Compression: Navigating Market Volatility

One of the most powerful aspects of the GATS methodology is its ability to account for volatility through ATR Expansion and Compression.

ATR Expansion:

• When markets are volatile, ATR expands, indicating high energy. Traders must account for this by setting wider stop-losses. The 12x ATR stop-loss ensures that trades are not prematurely exited during these volatile periods.

ATR Compression:

• Conversely, ATR compression signals low volatility, often before a significant move. Compression indicates that the market is taking a breather, and traders can prepare for potential breakouts or breakdowns. Tightening stops during compression phases can help protect profits before the next big move.

GATS 369 Channel: A Tool for Predicting Market Movements

The GATS 369 Channel serves as a dynamic support and resistance tool. Here’s how traders can use it to predict potential entries and exits:

• Trend Continuation: A break below the x3 channel may signal a trend continuation, with the target being the x6 and x9 levels.
• Reversal Signals: Watch for price to cross above the upper boundary of the Value Zone (EMA 50), especially if the Momentum Zone (EMA 8) also crosses. This often indicates a reversal.

The Global Quick Daily MACD (6, 9, 3) adds another layer of precision, helping traders anticipate short-term momentum shifts in line with Tesla’s 369 theory.
