Remember how the caterpillar turns into a butterfly? That is the analogy that comes to mind when we consider our trading process, from opportunity identification (the setup phase) all the way to the execution (upon the arrival of the trigger aka the signal).
And the analogy continues if you notice that just like the butterfly will never turn back into a caterpillar, our trigger, once it’s a trigger, will never turn back into a setup.
Long story short, spend a minute considering the images below, and dive deep into how we think about our trading process, and how elegantly our Remek! Market Scanner Pro quantifies (a key word in objective trading!) market opportunities, illuminates our thinking and measures and bounds our risk.
The transformation of a̶ ̶s̶e̶t̶u̶p̶ ̶i̶n̶t̶o̶ ̶a̶ ̶s̶i̶g̶n̶a̶l̶ a caterpillar into a butterfly.
Our current 6J short signal, the same signal as calculated quantitatively in our Market Scanner Pro and shown visually on our price chart. 6J 240min 2026 02 06
Let’s take our current 6J chart and our Market Scanner Pro to demonstrate a few points:
We have a signal on 6J (see circles below). Obviously that signal was first a setup, since every signal is preceeded by a setup (although not every setup will turn into a signal).
Note also the many setups on other instruments. Those opportunities are still in the setup phase (think “caterpillar”).
A subset of those setups will expectedly will turn into signals (think “butterflies”) as new candles are built.
Also note that there is no longer a setup message on 6J: once a setup has turned into a signal (just like a caterpillar turns into a butterfly), there’s no going back. And it’s either a setup or a signal (or none), but it’s never both at the same time.
A beautiful process, in biology, and also in trading, and a visualization which we have found useful over the years. But this all would only be useless game if we couldn’t pile up strong evidence for an edge in our methodology.
So we have done that too. Such is the beauty of our system, such is the beauty of our method, such is the beauty of how Remek! (remember: “remek” means excellent in the language of many a great trader) traders navigate the markets. Mindful trading to all, and remember to join us today, 2026 has started and there’s no reason to wait.
