The broader framework combines:
trend;
structure;
relative strength;
volatility;
price extension;
volume participation;
validation;
invalidation.
The components are interpreted in sequence:
Trend → Structure → Relative Strength → Volatility → Extension → Participation → Validation → Invalidation → Action
The main principle is:
An intact trend does not automatically mean a valid trade. Movement is not necessarily opportunity.
TradeSentinel is intended to distinguish between:
a healthy stock and an actionable setup;
genuine leadership and price movement without confirmation;
constructive volatility and destructive volatility;
an orderly pullback and structural deterioration;
evidence supporting engagement and evidence supporting patience.
The final result is decision-support analysis, not a prediction or instruction to trade.
