The Sector Lab Analytical Method
How Flow Orbit Core trains chart analysts to map market cycles, measure relative strength, and anticipate industry rotation. A top-down systematic process engineered to eliminate subjective guesswork and isolate market leadership.
From Macro Liquidity to Precise Execution
Individual technical patterns frequently break down when traded in isolation. A bullish flag on a small-cap software stock is statistically far more prone to failure if the Technology sector is currently rotating from the Weakening to the Lagging quadrant.
Our Sector Lab Method teaches students to respect the hierarchy of market dynamics: First analyze the macro tide, then identify the leading sector currents, and only then select the constituent vessels with maximum relative strength.

The 5 Pillars of the Sector Lab
Top-Down Macro Diagnostics
Before opening a single equity chart, we establish the broad macroeconomic regime: interest rate expectations, commodity trends, and broad index market breadth.
We evaluate global liquidity indicators, credit spreads (HYG/LQD), and sovereign yield curves to identify whether the overarching environment favors risk expansion or defensive preservation.
Relative Rotation Graph (RRG) Mapping
Plotting industry groups on the JdK RS-Ratio and RS-Momentum coordinate plane to visualize rotational velocity.
By tracking the clockwise progression through Improving, Leading, Weakening, and Lagging quadrants, analysts detect the exact moment institutional capital begins accumulating in under-the-radar sectors.
Relative Strength (RS) Ratio Validation
Constructing pure price ratio charts (Sector / Benchmark) to isolate true alpha from broad market buoyancy.
A rising RS line confirms that a sector is attracting disproportionate capital inflows. We teach specific candlestick and trendline breakout techniques directly on the ratio chart itself.
Constituent Breadth & Volume Spread Confirmation
Confirming that sector outperformance is driven by broad constituent participation rather than a single mega-cap anomaly.
We examine the percentage of sector members trading above their 50-day and 200-day moving averages, combined with volume expansion on weekly breakout bars.
Asymmetric Risk Staging & Position Discipline
Establishing exact technical invalidation levels, sector allocation ceilings, and rebalancing milestones.
Training students to calculate position sizing based on chart invalidation points rather than arbitrary percentage targets, ensuring structural capital preservation during sudden rotational reversals.
