Signals to watch
What would indicate the market is becoming ready, watched by someone rather than noticed retrospectively.
The idea
How it works
Markets become ready gradually and the change is visible in advance to anyone watching a few specific things. Almost nobody is watching, because nobody was assigned.
The signals are usually ordinary: a competitor entering, a price falling below a threshold, a regulation confirmed, a search term rising.
Working with it
In practice
- 01
Choose two or three indicators
Specific and observable. More than that produces a report nobody reads.
- 02
Set the level that would matter
Not just the direction. A threshold agreed in advance prevents the reading being interpreted to suit.
- 03
Name someone to watch
And how often. Unassigned monitoring does not happen and its absence is silent.
- 04
Record the readings
So that a later question about when it changed has an answer.
One level in
The components of signals to watch
A component is something that exists afterwards which did not exist before — a deliverable or a mechanism, not an intention.
Markets become ready gradually and visibly. Almost nobody sees it because nobody was assigned to look.
The other modules in market timing
Market readiness
Whether the conditions for demand actually exist — awareness of the problem, willingness to pay, and whatever the solution depends on.
LearnThe window
How long the opening lasts and what closes it — because an opening with no estimated duration is treated as permanent.
LearnEarly and late
What each error costs — asymmetric, and usually assessed as though it were not.
