System modes
Section titled “System modes”The MTF panel outputs one of several discrete modes:
| Mode | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| LONG_HUNT | Regime is bullish, waiting for long entry zone | Watch for price to reach the intraday long zone |
| SHORT_HUNT | Regime is bearish, waiting for short entry zone | Watch for price to reach the intraday short zone |
| COUNTERTREND_LONG | Bearish regime but tactical long fade opportunity | Smaller size, tighter stops |
| COUNTERTREND_SHORT | Bullish regime but tactical short fade | Smaller size, tighter stops |
| NO_TRADE | Conflicting signals or weekend lockout | Stay flat |
| NO_TRADE_WEEKEND | Weekend — no new positions | Wait for Monday |
The inputs
Section titled “The inputs”Lon’s panel synthesizes 6 independent inputs:
A. Regime Bias
Section titled “A. Regime Bias”DR Profit’s higher-timeframe macro view — the primary directional filter. If regime is bullish, the system only hunts longs (unless countertrend conditions appear).
B. Time Windows
Section titled “B. Time Windows”Lunar calendar timing — new moon 5-day windows and full moon 5-day windows. Certain phases historically correlate with directional tendencies.
C. Swing Zones
Section titled “C. Swing Zones”Entry zones from KOLs who focus on higher-timeframe levels (Cash, VV). These define the broad area where Lon wants to trade.
D. Intraday Zones
Section titled “D. Intraday Zones”Refined entry zones from intraday KOLs (Bojan, Woods). These narrow the swing zone down to a specific entry range. See Intraday Map for details.
E. TIA Confirmation
Section titled “E. TIA Confirmation”An independent bias + confidence signal that confirms or conflicts with the regime. When TIA aligns with the regime, conviction is highest.
F. Position & Price
Section titled “F. Position & Price”Current leverage, entry price, and where price sits relative to zones. This determines whether the system is hunting new entries or managing existing positions.
Leverage cap
Section titled “Leverage cap”The panel outputs a maximum leverage based on conditions:
- Full conviction (regime + time window + TIA align): Up to 5x
- Partial conviction (2 of 3 align): Up to 3x
- Low conviction: 1x or no trade
This protects against oversizing when the setup isn’t clean.
How to use it
Section titled “How to use it”Follow the mode. If the panel says LONG_HUNT, only look for longs. If it says NO_TRADE, stay flat. Don’t fight the framework.
Use the zones. The order plan gives you specific layers. You don’t have to think about entry levels — they’re computed for you.
Respect the leverage cap. This is risk management built into the signal. Don’t exceed it.
Check TIA. When TIA conflicts with the regime, the panel typically reduces to COUNTERTREND or NO_TRADE. This is by design — conflicting signals mean lower conviction.
