Overview

Measure agreement, not direction.

EdgePulse reads your primary chart asset through a proprietary pressure oscillator, then looks at related instruments to see whether they are all moving in the same direction. When they are, you have alignment. When they aren't, you don't.

EdgePulse is the most opinionated tool in the FLB ecosystem. Its job is to show—plainly and visually—whether the configured companion markets agree with what your chart is doing. When more enabled channels agree, the displayed state advances to a higher tier.

A strong primary pulse without companion alignment and a weaker primary pulse with broad alignment describe different conditions. Read the full state, not just one line—and do not treat either state as a standalone trade instruction.
The Four Tiers
From an early heads-up to full-stack agreement.
1

Tier 1 — Early. Primary Edge crosses zero. Heads-up, not a trigger.

2

Tier 2 — Building. Two channels aligned. Agreement is building.

3

Tier 3 — Strong. Three channels aligned. A strong agreement state, still not a standalone entry.

4

Tier 4 — Full Stack. Every enabled channel aligned. The highest displayed agreement tier, still subject to your structure and risk rules.

Two Modes

Standard or Pro — auto-detected by symbol

EdgePulse selects a mode from its supported symbol mapping. Review the on-panel badge and available companion data; you can override the mode when your chart or workflow requires it.

Standard

On any unsupported symbol

Activates on stocks, crypto, forex, commodities outside the supported set, and any chart where you manually select Standard mode.

Shows the Primary Edge line and simple early-expansion arrows when the line crosses zero with momentum. No companion channels, no tier system.

Pro

Auto on supported futures

Activates automatically on NQ, ES, YM, RTY, and GC — plus all their micros (MNQ, MES, MYM, M2K, MGC).

Unlocks the full alignment engine: three companion channels, the four-tier alignment system, and Full Stack labels.

TIP

Check the badge. A small status badge at the top of the panel tells you which mode is active. Green = Pro. Gray = Standard. The badge also shows which chart asset Pro is tracking.

The Primary Edge

The pressure reading for your chart asset

The thick colored line on your panel is the Primary Edge. It ranges roughly from −2 to +2, and its color changes with state. When scanning, read the color before anything else.

Dead Zone

|Edge| < 0.2 — Yellow

No meaningful pressure. Avoid entries.

Developing

0.2 to 0.5 — Orange

Pressure building but not yet confirmed. Watch for expansion.

Trend Up

Above +0.5 — Lime

Clean bullish pressure. Long side favored.

Trend Down

Below −0.5 — Red

Clean bearish pressure. Short side favored.

Exhaustion

Above +1.5 or below −1.5

Potential reversal zone. Reduce size, watch for confluence failure.

Boundary

±2.0 — Hard cap

Values cannot extend beyond this in either direction.

TIP

Color first. Lime means look for longs. Red means look for shorts. Orange means wait. Yellow means do nothing.

The Companion Channels

Sister, Anchor, Counter — and why they matter

In Pro mode, EdgePulse doesn't just read your chart asset. It reads two more instruments that move with it, and one that moves against it. Each companion produces its own EdgePulse value, plotted as a thinner line on the panel.

Sister Edge

Closest companion

The configured asset intended to move most closely with your primary. When Sister agrees, the first companion channel is aligned; when it disagrees, cross-asset agreement is incomplete.

Anchor Edge

Broader anchor

The second positively-related companion. Typically a slower-moving instrument that anchors direction to a wider context. When Anchor agrees, the move has structural backing.

Counter Edge

Inverse companion

An asset that historically moves opposite the primary. Counter aligns bullish when it moves bearish, and vice versa. A push up on Primary while Counter pushes down is powerful confirmation.

TIP

Each companion has its own toggle. Disabling one recalculates the alignment tiers—the Full Stack threshold adjusts to the remaining enabled channels. All three companions are enabled by default.

The Four Tiers

Early, Building, Strong, Full Stack

Each tier represents agreement across more enabled channels. When the alignment count increases, a shape prints on the panel. Four tiers, four shapes.

Tier 1

Early — Small triangle

Primary Edge just crossed zero. Earliest state—fastest and based on the fewest aligned channels.

Not a standalone trigger. Treat it as a heads-up that the primary state is changing.

Tier 2

Building — Circle

Two channels aligned—Primary plus one companion. Agreement is building.

Compare it with FLB zone location and Surge state before deciding whether it fits your plan.

Tier 3

Strong — Diamond

Three channels aligned. Highest tier that isn't a Full Stack.

Not a standalone entry. Evaluate it alongside location, invalidation, and the rest of your defined stack.

Tier 4

Full Stack — White diamond

Every enabled channel aligned in the product's current calculation.

The highest agreement tier. Use FLB zones, Surge, Trade Shield, and your written risk limits to decide whether the state belongs in your plan.

Settings Reference

Every input, explained

EdgePulse ships with settings tuned for NQ/MNQ scalping and mapped defaults for supported assets. Treat them as documented starting points and validate the configuration for your market, timeframe, and data.

Mode & Detection

Auto-config
Mode AutoAuto = Pro on supported futures, Standard elsewhere. Override with Force Standard or Force Pro.
Chart Asset AutoAuto detects your ticker. Manually override only when deliberately cross-applying.

Alerts

Six alert conditions

Configure these in TradingView's alert panel. Wire only the tiers you actually trade — Tier 1 and Tier 2 fire frequently and cause alert fatigue if pushed.

Full Stack (Tier 4)

2 alerts
Full Stack LongEvery enabled channel aligned bullish—the highest long-side agreement state.
Full Stack ShortEvery enabled channel aligned bearish—the highest short-side agreement state.

Strong (Tier 3)

2 alerts
Strong LongThree channels aligned bullish.
Strong ShortThree channels aligned bearish.

Standard Mode

2 alerts
Standard Early LongStandard mode — Primary Edge crosses zero with bullish momentum.
Standard Early ShortStandard mode — Primary Edge crosses zero with bearish momentum.
TIP

Wire Full Stack and Strong only. Tier 1 and Tier 2 fire constantly on active days — push notifications for those will burn out your phone.

Common Mistakes

How traders misuse EdgePulse

EdgePulse is a filter, not a signal generator. The mistakes below all share one root: treating it as something it isn't.

Trading Tier 1 Early signals as entries

Tier 1 is a heads-up. Primary Edge just crossed zero and no companions have confirmed. Use it to begin observing; a higher tier still needs to satisfy the location, invalidation, and risk conditions in your plan.

Ignoring Counter Edge

When Primary pushes up but Counter also pushes up (failing to inverse-confirm), the broader complex isn't on the move you're seeing. Respect the counter.

Taking Full Stack signals against the rest of your stack

A Full Stack long when price is below FLB zones and Surge is red is EdgePulse disagreeing with everything else. The white diamond doesn't override the rest of the stack.

Forcing Pro mode on unsupported symbols

You can set Mode to Pro, but EdgePulse will still run Standard because companion data doesn't exist. Trust the badge, not your input.

Disabling companions to clean up the panel

Turning off a companion lowers the Full Stack threshold artificially. A 'Full Stack' with only Primary + one companion is much weaker than true four-way alignment.

Overriding Trade Shield for a Full Stack

The white diamond can look compelling, but it does not supersede Trade Shield. Treat an active warning as a configured rule condition rather than overriding it because one setup looks attractive.

Disabling Signal Confirmation to catch more signals

Confirmation filters pending states that do not maintain alignment for the configured window. It changes which signals qualify; it does not establish what the filtered signal would have earned or lost.

Treating EdgePulse as a standalone system

EdgePulse can remain noisy during chop and may not capture every fast directional move. Use it as one filter alongside Surge, Key Levels, FLB zones, and Trade Shield.

FAQ

Frequently asked

Check the badge text — it tells you which symbol Pro is tracking. If you've manually overridden to Force Standard, the system honors that override. Reset Mode to Auto.

Yes. Turning confirmation off exposes the raw event logic for study, but it changes product behavior and does not create a validated strategy test. Choose the live setting through a documented process and simulation; confirmation does not guarantee an outcome.

Standard mode does — it shows the Primary Edge line and zero-cross signals. Pro mode does not, because there's no curated companion data for stocks.

Frequency varies with market conditions and settings. Full Stack requires multiple alignment conditions, so some sessions may have few or no events; it is not a win probability or promised outcome.

Surge measures momentum confluence on your chart asset. EdgePulse measures cross-asset alignment between your chart and correlated instruments. Both filter — they answer different questions.

Default 1 waits for the documented confirmation step. Lowering the value to 0 disables that filter and can increase raw event frequency, but more events do not imply better quality or performance. Compare settings on the same replay or simulation window.

Ready?

When the whole stack moves together, you move with it.

Multi-asset alignment in one read. EdgePulse confirms when the whole correlated stack agrees with your chart — and stays quiet when it doesn't.
