Software

Our software is used by professional traders around the world. Benefit from an expert analysis and advanced identification of trading opportunities.

Introduction

JM Hurst described the analysis process as “more of an art than a science” and suggested that a computer would never be able to analyze as well as a human! But Sentient Trader achieves an expert (and often better-than-human) analysis by using the exact analysis method proposed by Hurst, an advanced form of pattern recognition that mimics the human approach.

EOD and Intraday

Sentient Trader software is used by professional traders around the world and is available as a version that performs analysis on EOD (End Of Day) data, and as an intraday version, which extends the analysis down all the way down to the one-minute chart.

Analyst Edition

Analyst Edition

The Analyst Edition is the perfect tool for a trader who has an established trading methodology in place and would like to combine that with the insight of a Hurst cycle analysis. It performs a full cycle analysis of trough-synchronized, peak-synchronized or both (dual analysis) cycles. It displays the results of that analysis in several ways:

· Hurst’s Diamond and Circles-and-whiskers notation.
· Semi-circles.
· Cycle lines

The analysis can be based on a custom cycle model and influenced by the user, making the software a powerful tool in the hands of an experienced analyst, and a useful learning tool in the hands of a novice.

Hurst’s cycle tools, the FLD (Future Line of Demarcation) and VTL (Valid Trend Line) are calculated and plotted automatically, as well as more advanced tools, the CML (Composite Model Line),cycle-based Zig-Zags, multiple FLD pattern boxes, envelopes and displaced averages.
