ZigZagBid – User Guide for Traders
Turn complex markets into clear trading scenarios.
1. What ZigZagBid Is (and Why Traders Use It)
ZigZagBid is a trade-oriented analytical system that merges classical reversal techniques with state-of-the-art machine learning, statistics, and LLM (large language model) technology to help you stack probabilities in your favor.
Instead of juggling dozens of charts, indicators, and opinions, ZigZagBid gives you two powerful workspaces:
- Current View – fast, structured forecasts for the next trading sessions.
- Chart View – a visual “decision cockpit” where all predictions are combined into one clear picture.
Think of it as having several disciplined, data-driven analysts on your desk, all summarizing what they see so you can decide faster and with more confidence.
2. Getting Started: Your First 3 Minutes
-
Log in and choose a ticker.
After login you’ll see the Supported Tickers page. Use the search box and type filters (Stocks, ETFs, Indices, Crypto, etc.) to find the instrument you want to analyze. Then click on the ticker row. -
Review the Current View.
Once you click a ticker, ZigZagBid opens the Current View tab for that instrument. You’ll immediately see short-term and medium-term models, plus AI-driven swing suggestions and reversal levels. -
Switch to Chart View.
From Current View, switch to the Chart View tab. You’ll see projected prices as colored dots, support/resistance bands, and probability bars that tell you how strong a potential move might be.
Take 30 seconds to ask yourself:
“If I had to plan the next 12 trading sessions right now, what would I do with this information?”
That simple habit turns ZigZagBid from “interesting tool” into an everyday trading companion you’ll want access to before each session.
3. The Current View Tab – Your Daily Trading Radar
The Current View is where you check what may happen next in the market.
3.1 Short-Term Models – Next 12 Sessions at a Glance
These are time-series models forecasting the next 12 trading sessions, with options for weekly and monthly views as well.
For each model, you’ll see:
- Day-by-day forecast
- Summary for the range
- Predicted Min and Max points
How to use it mentally:
Look across the models and notice where they agree. When different models point in the same direction, it’s a signal worth your attention—even if you ultimately choose not to trade it.
This kind of structured “model consensus” is hard to replicate on your own, and it’s exactly the kind of edge traders pay for: a way to quickly separate noise from recurring patterns.
Subscriber habit: Many subscribers open Current View first thing in the morning, scan the 12-session forecast in under a minute, and then dig deeper only into the assets where several models point the same way.
3.2 Medium-Term Models – Catching the Bigger Reversals
ZigZagBid includes three medium-term models:
- XDFTP
- XDPCOMBI
- VSDPCOMBI
These models are built on dozens of parameters and aim to forecast:
- Where a trend is likely to reverse (min/max turning points)
- When that reversal is expected to happen (in trading sessions)
You’ll see a Distance value:
- Positive distance → price isn’t at the turning point yet.
- Negative distance → the model suggests a trend change has likely started, but isn’t fully confirmed.
How this helps you:
You don’t just see “up” or “down”; you see where and roughly when the bigger shift might occur.
That’s the kind of information that can shape your swing and position trades instead of reacting
candle by candle.
3.3 Cronos-Engine – AI-Driven Swing Suggestions
Cronos-Engine is a future-forecasting engine powered by LLM technology:
- It runs about 20 simulations on future price behavior.
- It then proposes a swing trade scenario expected to unfold over 12 trading sessions, with both buy and sell levels.
In the application you can see how Cronos-Engine provides:
- A suggested entry price range
- The anticipated target range
- An estimated time window (12 sessions)
Pro mindset to adopt:
Don’t treat this as a magic signal. Treat it as an expert scenario you can compare your own idea to. If your plan and Cronos-Engine point in the same direction, that alignment can boost your confidence—or warn you to investigate further if you disagree.
3.4 Active Reversal Levels – Daily, Weekly, Monthly
Within Current View you’ll also find active reversal levels across different timeframes:
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
These act as dynamic support/resistance zones where historical behavior suggests the price often changes direction.
Practical tip:
When a forecasted move lines up with an active reversal level, it’s a natural place to pause and ask:
“If the market respects this level again, how do I want to position myself?”
Subscribers who consistently check reversal levels often start to feel that they’re “seeing” the market’s structure more clearly than before—which is exactly the feeling you want before committing real capital.
3.5 Early-Stage AI Trade Ideas (Alpha)
ZigZagBid also includes AI-generated trade ideas in an early (alpha) stage.
These can:
- Spark new perspectives you might not have considered.
- Serve as starting points for your own research and strategy.
Why this matters:
Idea generation is one of the most time-consuming parts of trading. Having a machine constantly propose structured ideas helps you focus your time on validation and execution—not endless scanning.
4. The Chart View Tab – Your Visual Decision Center
If Current View is your radar, Chart View is your cockpit.
Here, ZigZagBid combines all predictions into one clear, visual layout to support your final decision.
On the projection chart you’ll find:
- Projected Prices (Dots)
Each dot represents a predicted future price level at a specific date. - Directional Change Bars
Below the chart, bars display the statistical probability and often the depth of the expected price change—higher bars mean stronger statistical conviction. - Support & Resistance Reversal Lines
Red lines – potential support zones
Green lines – potential resistance zones - Model Checkboxes
You can toggle different time-series models on and off to see how each one projects the future.
4.1 A Common Use Pattern
A commonly taught rule of thumb in the system is:
-
Consider buying when:
- The current price meets a predicted dot,
- That dot is close to a support (red) reversal level, and
- The directional change bar for that date is relatively high.
-
Consider selling / reducing exposure when:
- The current price meets a predicted dot near a resistance (green) reversal,
- Again, with a relatively high directional change bar.
Important: These are analytical guidelines built into ZigZagBid’s logic—not guaranteed outcomes. They are designed to focus your attention on key areas where probability and structure may align.
When you see the chart in action, it becomes much easier to imagine scenarios like:
“If price dips into this support zone where multiple models see a bounce, how do I want to react?”
That kind of pre-planning is what many traders are actually paying for: fewer surprises and more structured decision making.
5. A Simple Workflow You Can Repeat Every Session
Here is a repeatable flow that many traders find effective:
-
Scan Short-Term Models (1–2 minutes)
Look for clusters where multiple models suggest a similar direction over the next 12 sessions. -
Check Medium-Term Models (1 minute)
Note any upcoming turning points (distances approaching or crossing zero). -
Review Cronos-Engine (1 minute)
Compare its 12-session swing suggestion to your own market view. -
Confirm in Chart View (3–5 minutes)
See where projected dots, reversal lines, and probability bars align. Use checkboxes to compare different models visually. -
Document Your Plan
Before trading, write a short “if–then” plan, for example:- If price reaches X near support with strong probability bar, I’ll consider entering with size Y.
- If price hits resistance with high probability bar, I’ll consider taking profits or tightening risk.
Using this workflow consistently gives you a structured, subscription-worthy routine that can be reused in any market environment.
6. Why Keep a Subscription Active?
ZigZagBid is not about one “killer signal.” It’s about giving you a complete analytical environment that:
- Lets you see 12 sessions ahead instead of only reacting to the last candle.
- Highlights medium-term turns before they become obvious.
- Provides AI-driven scenarios (Cronos-Engine and alpha trade ideas) you can compare your own ideas to.
- Visualizes everything in Chart View, so potential setups stand out at a glance.
The true value appears over time:
- You develop consistent habits (daily scans, pre-planned reactions).
- You become more aware of where the probabilities may be shifting.
- You reduce the feeling of “I missed that move because I didn’t have a clear plan.”
If markets are part of your everyday life, it makes sense to keep the tool that structures your decisions available every day as well—that’s what your subscription is really buying.
7. Risk & Responsibility
It’s crucial to understand what ZigZagBid is not:
- It is not trading advice.
- It is not investment advice.
- All outputs are reports produced by AI and statistical models.
Always:
- Do your own research.
- Manage position sizing and risk according to your personal situation.
- Accept that no model, no matter how advanced, can eliminate risk.
ZigZagBid’s role is to give you a clearer map. Where you choose to walk on that map is your decision.
8. Next Step
If you find value in:
- Seeing structured forecasts instead of scattered indicators,
- Having AI-driven scenarios you can challenge or confirm,
- And using a visual dashboard to make more deliberate trading decisions,
then the logical next step is to activate or upgrade your ZigZagBid subscription and make this workflow part of your regular trading routine.
The markets will keep moving—with or without a plan. ZigZagBid is built to help you face each session with one.
