About QQQ

QQQ tracks the Nasdaq 100: the hundred largest non-financial companies listed on Nasdaq. It is dominated by technology, so it swings harder than the broad US market.

How the cycles are found

A time series can be written as many waves added together. Next Turn measures which of those waves dominate the market today, how strong each one is, and where each stands in its cycle right now. The How it works page explains the idea with pictures and a little mathematics.
