Why broad-based index research matters

Broad-based indexes (major national benchmarks, diversified sector proxies, and key macro assets) summarize the “center of gravity” of a market. Studying them helps you understand trend, risk, and regime changes without being distracted by noise from individual securities.

Our proprietary approach: Broad Market Pulse Trading Strategy

BroadCycle uses an original medium-to-long horizon method we call the Broad Market Pulse Trading Strategy. The core idea is to study the “pulse” of moving averages: how a medium-cycle moving average behaves relative to a long-cycle moving average across different market regimes.

We focus on two patterns: overbought ridge-top behavior (elevated downside risk) and oversold rapid declines (stress regimes with higher drawdown probability). This gives users a clear, structured view of the market’s current state for medium-to-long term decisions.

Not a real-time system

We work with end-of-day (close) data after each market session. The site is intended for post-close analysis and research, not intraday monitoring.
