Hyperfork Matrix: Pitchfork Channels, Action Lines, and Time Lattices

Summary

The Hyperfork Matrix extends Andrews Pitchfork analysis from three swing pivots. It plots a median line and parallel tines, with Original, Schiff, and Modified Schiff variants that differ in how the anchor is positioned. Pivots can be detected automatically from alternating swing highs and lows or entered manually. Optional extra parallels expand the channel, while logarithmic calculations support charts displayed on a log scale.

Action and reaction lines project the slopes of the first and second pivot legs at regular intervals across the fork. A lattice feature adds horizontal and vertical references where a selected pivot’s price intersects the channel or those projected lines. The document presents possible uses such as pullbacks toward the median or tine, targets beyond a broken tine, and candidate timing windows at line crossings; the median and main parallels can also serve as alert levels. These are proposed chart-reading applications, not tested trading rules. No performance evidence is given, and the tool’s usefulness depends on pivot selection and interpretation of geometric levels.

Key ideas

• The indicator builds a price channel from three swing pivots and offers three anchor variants.
• Automatic pivots alternate between highs and lows, while manual mode accepts dated pivot bars.
• Action and reaction lines project the slopes of the two pivot legs across the channel.
• A lattice marks price and time intersections derived from a chosen pivot.
• The document suggests trading and alert uses but provides no performance validation.
