ftd-detector

separate

Detects Follow-Through Day (FTD) signals for market bottom confirmation using William O'Neil's methodology. Dual-index tracking (S&P 500 + NASDAQ) with state machine for rally attempt, FTD qualification, and post-FTD health monitoring. Use when user asks about market bottom signals, follow-through days, rally attempts, re-entry timing after corrections, or whether it's safe to increase equity exposure. Complementary to market-top-detector (defensive) - this skill is offensive (bottom confirmation).

When to use

• Market Top Detector = defensive (detects distribution, rotation, deterioration)
• FTD Detector = offensive (detects rally attempts, bottom confirmation)
• User asks "Is the market bottoming?" or "Is it safe to buy again?"
• User observes a market correction (3%+ decline) and wants re-entry timing
• User asks about Follow-Through Days or rally attempts
• User wants to assess if a recent bounce is sustainable
• User asks about increasing equity exposure after a correction
• Market Top Detector shows elevated risk and user wants bottom signals

When not to use

• market top detection
• defensive signals
• uptrend analysis without correction
