Understanding Our Stock Market Signal Framework: EGTI vs. EGTB EGTI defines the stock market’s structural trend. EGTB is our Stock Market Top & Bottom signal engine — it does not interpret causes, only whether a condition has been triggered. EGTB is time-based. When a signal activates, it points to a potential inflection window typically within 1–3 trading days. We identify timing — not price targets.
