Daye's Quarterly Theory Indicator
Description
The Daye's Quarterly Theory Indicator divides trading time into smaller units to help traders identify potential accumulation, manipulation, distribution, and reversal/continuation phases within a day. It applies these time divisions to your charts, offering visual guidance aligned with ICT's PO3 concept:
Accumulation (A): The phase where positions are accumulated.
Manipulation (M): The phase where the market moves against the prevailing trend to trap traders.
Distribution (D): The phase where accumulated positions are distributed.
Reversal/Continuation (X): The phase indicating either a reversal or continuation of the trend.
