THE WAYPOINT MANUAL

Waypoint
User manual.

A practical guide to Waypoint: what the screen means, how to navigate it and what to check before relying on a reading.

Supported markets: NQ · ES · GC · RTY · YM · Updated September 19, 2026

01 / WAYPOINT

Choose market and destination

Waypoint supports NQ, ES, GC, RTY and YM. Choose a market and one of its destination presets. These represent distances to compare against the price map; they are not validated trade parameters or guaranteed targets.

Check the price timestamp, completed-bar coverage and map status. When the selected history has not produced usable zones, the route may be unknown even though current price is available.

02 / WAYPOINT

Understand the price zones

Waypoint uses completed price structure to identify potential buying and selling areas. Its zones are price-derived, not options walls or EMA lines. Read the zone’s role, location and reaction together; a zone can be challenged or crossed.

The map describes available recorded structure. It does not contain every possible obstacle. An absent zone cannot establish an unobstructed route or replace your own assessment of the market.

03 / WAYPOINT

Read the destination and first obstacle

Locate current price on the ladder, then inspect the first mapped obstacle above and below. Compare each with the selected destination. An obstacle inside that distance changes the route context; one beyond it can leave mapped room toward the objective.

Room is only assessable when usable zone context exists. Unknown is not equivalent to clear space. A destination remains a reference even when the map provides room; it is not evidence that price must reach it.

04 / WAYPOINT

Set chart and zone history

Use Last 105 bars or Last 210 bars to adjust the visible chart. Zone-history choices include automatic day/overnight selection and the available 18:00 or 9:30 Eastern starting points. Chart visibility and the zone-history scope answer different questions.

After changing history, recheck the map and coverage. A different observation window may supply different zones. Forming price updates can move the current-price marker while completed structure remains the basis of the map.

05 / WAYPOINT

Inspect reaction watch and history

Reaction watch brings the response, reference, destination and invalidation into one place. Where shown, the risk/reward comparison describes those references; it is not a forecast of trade profitability.

Recent confirmed reactions preserve their reference levels and subsequent recorded outcomes. Treat follow-through as simulated observation, not actual executed trades. A target touch in recorded data does not establish fill quality, costs or the result a trader would have received.

06 / WAYPOINT

Use voice for awareness

Enable voice and test playback for the selected market. When a qualifying clear-path destination is available, the page can repeat an update while you watch. Keep the tab open and the device awake; check browser audio and volume if the test is silent.

A voice message describes the current map. It does not submit an order or manage a stop. Check the chart and timestamps if you return after an interruption rather than relying on the last announcement alone.

07 / WAYPOINT

Use Waypoint alongside other evidence

Start with the first obstacle, then compare the destination and watch how price behaves at the nearby zone. Use Price Control for a closer view of recorded response or Kaleidoscope for the separate options-wall context. Range Pulse can help follow a local range before it leaves its boundaries.

If zones are unavailable, check the selected market, history and source status. Avoid turning missing coverage into a directional conclusion. Waypoint is an experimental price-zone map and does not place trades or manage positions.
