Workflow

1. Scan the annual calendar.Start with the top diversified setups for the month.
2. Check the live market.Confirm trend, moving averages, support/resistance, events, options and market regime.
3. Avoid duplicate exposure.Choose one strong setup when several names express the same sector move.
4. Plan the exit before entry.Use the historical hold as a maximum window, with price-based invalidation.

What the key statistics mean

Discovery win

Win rate in the older modern-history sample used to discover the setup.

Unseen win

Win rate in the recent years held out until after the setup was selected. This is the cleanest confirmation check.

Full win

Win rate across all completed historical windows, including discovery and unseen years.

Full average

Average directional return across the complete sample. Shorts are scored so a decline is favorable.

Regime pass rate

Share of tested eras that met minimum persistence rules.

Dates and holding periods

Entry

The first trading day on or after the listed month-day, within five calendar days. It is when to look for an entry—not an automatic buy signal.

Hold

The tested number of trading sessions from entry to planned exit.

Approx. weeks

Trading-day conversion using roughly five sessions per week. Calendar time can be longer because of weekends and holidays.

Tiers and risk

Elite

The strongest statistical tier after correction for multiple tests.

Verified

Passed the unseen-year test with sufficient discovery history.

Verified–Limited

Passed unseen testing but has a shorter discovery record; size and interpret cautiously.

Degraded

Looked strong in discovery but failed unseen-year confirmation. Not an active setup.
