Hilbert Transform - Dominant Cycle Phase (HT_DCPHASE)

Ehlers DSP cycle hilbert phase dsp

Calculates the phase angle (0 to 360 degrees) of the dominant cycle identified by the Hilbert Transform.

Usage

Use to identify the current position within a market cycle. It is the core component for generating the Hilbert Sine Wave indicator, which signals trend vs. cycle regimes.

Background

The Dominant Cycle Phase represents the instantaneous position within a detected cycle. By measuring the phase angle, traders can determine if the market is at a peak, trough, or mid-cycle, enabling more precise timing for entry and exit signals. — Rocket Science for Traders

Formula

\[ Phase = \arctan\left(\frac{\text{Quadrature}}{\text{InPhase}}\right) \]
