ImGeld is a market structure and portfolio context platform built for disciplined equity traders.
It exists to solve a specific problem:
most traders have access to more information than they can properly contextualize.
Indexes move, headlines change, and narratives rotate daily. What is often missing is a clear, repeatable framework for understanding participation, dispersion, and risk conditions before capital is deployed.
ImGeld focuses on that gap.
What ImGeld Is (and Is Not)
ImGeld is not a signal service, alert system, or prediction engine.
It does not tell subscribers what to buy or sell.
It does not optimize for excitement, engagement, or volume.
Instead, ImGeld provides structured market data and analysis designed to support judgment, selectivity, and risk awareness.
The goal is not to generate more trades, but to support better decisions around when to act, where to focus, and when restraint is warranted.
The Philosophy Behind ImGeld
Markets are complex systems. Price alone rarely tells the full story.
ImGeld is built on three core principles:
Participation matters more than direction
Broad participation supports sustainable trends. Narrow participation often signals fragility.
Dispersion creates opportunity
Relative strength and weakness across industries matter more than index-level moves.
Process outperforms prediction
Repeatable frameworks and risk discipline matter more than forecasts.
These principles guide every dataset, report, and analytical choice within ImGeld.
