Quarter Sequence Chains

7 112
Quarter Sequence Chains visualises Daye's Quarterly Theory across seven nested
cycle levels in a single sub-pane ribbon — and highlights when adjacent levels
form a Quarter Sequence chain.

Implements the Quarter Sequence framework as published by LethalityTrader:
when two or more cycle levels share the same Q-phase (or bridge Q4↔Q1), they
form a chain — and chains tell you which side of the market the bigger
timeframes are weighted toward.

═══════════════════════════════════
WHAT THE RIBBON SHOWS
═══════════════════════════════════

Seven rows, top → bottom (smallest cycle on top):
• Nano (5.625-minute Q)
• Micro (22.5-minute Q)
• 90M (90-minute Q)
• Daily (6-hour Q)
• Weekly (1-day Q, Sun-start convention)
• Monthly (~1-week Q, Daye Nth-Sunday anchor)
• Yearly (3-month Q)

Each cell is coloured by its current Q-phase:
• Q1 — grey (Accumulation)
• Q2 — red (Manipulation)
• Q3 — green (Distribution)
• Q4 — blue (Reversal / Continuation)

When the "Only colour cells participating in a chain" filter is on (default),
ONLY cells whose adjacent rows form a same-phase (or Q4↔Q1) chain of at least
N rows are coloured. Everything else stays blank. This is what makes the
ribbon a chain-detection tool, not just a quarter-of-the-day indicator.

═══════════════════════════════════
HOW TO READ IT
═══════════════════════════════════

A vertical stack of coloured cells at the current bar = a live chain.
• A 3-row green stack across 90M / Daily / Weekly = three nested cycles
are all in Q3 (Distribution) right now — a same-phase chain.
• A 4-row blue/grey alternating stack on Q4↔Q1 = a bridge chain across
the AMDX boundary — the doctrinally strongest setup per Lethality.
• A coloured single cell with blank neighbours = a chain that involves
off-band cycles (auto-hidden by your current chart TF but still
contributing). Drop to a lower TF to see the full chain.

Cells extend right until the cycle's Q-phase changes, so live chains stay
visible at the right edge of the chart in real time.

═══════════════════════════════════
TWO CHAIN MODES
═══════════════════════════════════

SIMPLE (default): one chain-length floor applied across all seven rows. A
row colours when it's part of a chain of ≥ N adjacent rows.

TIERED: two independent walks with separate minimums —
• HTF tier: Weekly / Monthly / Yearly
• LTF tier: Nano / Micro / 90M / Daily
A row colours when (a) its own tier's chain meets that tier's minimum AND
(b) the OTHER tier also has an active chain. HTF Q and LTF Q can be
different — "HTF Q4 + LTF Q3" is a valid composite (and a doctrinally
canonical execution setup).

═══════════════════════════════════
SUGGESTED SETTINGS
═══════════════════════════════════

For day traders on the 1m – 15m chart:
Mode = Simple, min length = 3
The Lethality floor — three nested cycles must agree before a cell colours.

For multi-timeframe context:
Mode = Tiered, HTF = 2, LTF = 2
Surfaces composites where the bigger picture aligns with the execution
window. Tighten either tier if too noisy.

For permissive scanning / learning the framework:
Mode = Simple, min length = 2
Every two-row agreement colours. Use this to see how chains form and
die — not for live trading decisions.

═══════════════════════════════════
TIMEFRAME GATING
═══════════════════════════════════

Each row auto-hides on charts where its cycle isn't readable:
Nano 1s – 1m Micro 1m – 5m
90M 1m – 1h Daily 1m – 4h
Weekly 1m – 6h Monthly 1m – 1w Yearly 15m – 1w

A row that's auto-hidden on the current TF still participates in chain
detection (off-band cycles are masked to zero, which means they can't
satisfy the pair rule — they break the chain rather than fake one).

Notas de prensa

  • New: Row Labels section — master toggle (off by default) reveals 7 per-row labels (Nano → Yearly, on by default), anchored at leftmost visible bar; text size + colour pickers included.
  • Fix: first-bar na != trap was leaving the leftmost cell blank on every row (worst on Yearly/Monthly) until the next Q-transition.
  • Fix: labels no longer disappear on size change or input-driven rerun (guarded chart.left_visible_bar_time na case + force-recreate on size-input change).

Notas de prensa
• Fixed Nano chains not forming on sub-1m charts — chain math no longer drops higher-cycle Q values when chart TF is below the row's render band.
• Removed the Nano bypass toggle (was masking the above bug — now Nano colours only when in a real chain).

v1.3

- Fixed — Monthly cycle anchoring. Monthly quarters now anchor to the week of the month's first Monday, with each week starting at its session open (Sunday 18:00 NY — which can fall on the last day of the prior calendar month). The previous first-Sunday-in-month anchoring mis-assigned the first trading week to the prior month's Q4 whenever a month began on a Monday (e.g. June 2026: the week of June 8 is Monthly Q2, not Q1). Months with five weeks remain in Q4 until the next cycle's Q1 begins.

- New — Forward Projection. The ribbon now projects forward from the live bar to the end of the current session (the next 18:00 NY roll). Because the quarterly cycles are pure clock math, every upcoming quarter — and every upcoming chain window — is computable in advance: you can see when the next sequence alignment opens before it arrives. The projection honours your chain-filter settings exactly (Simple/Tiered, minimum lengths — the projected chain logic is verified identical to the live ribbon's), and each projected cell is coloured by its own quarter, just like the live cells.

- New settings group "5. Forward Projection":

  • Project rest of session — master toggle (on by default).
  • Projected cell opacity (%) — how strongly future cells are filled (default 25%, faint).
  • Max projected segments per row — caps how many future cells the fast rows (Nano/Micro) draw, protecting the drawing budget; slower rows always project the full session.
  • Style projection like the live ribbon — render the future identically to the past (your full phase colours, solid borders) instead of faint with dotted borders.
  • Known limitations: the projected region beyond the last bar maps future time linearly, so the daily 17:00–18:00 maintenance hour occupies visual width until real bars arrive (cosmetic; corrects as bars print). On 24/7 symbols (crypto), the two US DST-transition Sundays per year trade through the 02:00 clock change, and projected quarters can sit one hour off for the remainder of those two sessions; CME-hours symbols are unaffected.

v1.4

  • Forward Projection now joins the live ribbon seamlessly. Each row's live cell carries its current quarter through to the quarter's boundary, and the faint forecast begins at the next quarter — no gap or divider at the live edge.
  • Internals: ribbon cells are now time-anchored (no behaviour change to the historical ribbon).
