Hilbert Transform - Phasor Components
Under the Hood
HT_PHASOR uses Hilbert Transform to decompose price into two orthogonal components: in-phase and quadrature (90° offset). These two outputs represent the current cycle as a rotating vector (phasor) in mathematical phase space. Developed by John Ehlers, this sophisticated indicator provides the raw components used to calculate other HT indicators like HT_DCPHASE and HT_SINE. The in-phase component aligns with the current cycle direction, while the quadrature component leads by 90°, together revealing cycle structure and turning points.
In Practice
Quantitative cryptocurrency traders use HT_PHASOR's dual outputs for advanced cycle analysis and custom indicator development. Crossovers between in-phase and quadrature components signal cycle turning points. When quadrature crosses above in-phase, the cycle is entering an upward phase; crosses below indicate downward phase. HT_PHASOR is primarily used by researchers and algorithm developers building custom cycle-based indicators, or combined with other HT indicators for comprehensive cycle strategies. It provides the foundational building blocks for cycle-adaptive trading systems.
