Seven Orthogonal Edges

Each strategy exploits a distinct market inefficiency. When multiple engines fire on the same ticker, confluence scoring amplifies conviction and expected hit rate.

01 — Event Driven

Insider Activity (Form 4)

Parses SEC EDGAR Form 4 filings in real-time. Scores cluster buying, dollar conviction, role weighting, and exponential time decay. Net flow analysis captures both purchases and sales.

SEC EDGAR Cluster Detection Net Flow

02 — Momentum

Post-Earnings Drift (PEAD)

Captures the well-documented drift following earnings surprises. Filters by surprise magnitude, volume confirmation, and institutional ownership shift.

Earnings Calendar Surprise Factor Drift Window

03 — Event Driven

Activist 13D Accumulation

Monitors SEC 13D filings for activist accumulation above 5% ownership threshold. Scores by activist track record, position size, and stated intent.

SEC 13D Activist Tracking Catalyst

04 — Momentum

Sector Momentum Rotation

Identifies leading sectors via relative strength, then selects pullback entries in top-ranked sectors. Regime-aware position scaling.

Sector RS Dip Buy Rotation

05 — Technical

VCP Breakout

Volatility Contraction Pattern detection. Identifies bases with successive tightening ranges and volume dry-ups preceding breakout moves.

Pattern Scan Vol Contraction Breakout

06 — Flow

Short Squeeze Detection

High short-interest stocks with catalyst triggers. Scores by SI%, days-to-cover, cost-to-borrow, and identifies technical squeeze setups.

SI Data Days to Cover CTB

07 — Flow

Unusual Options Activity

Detects anomalous options volume and open interest spikes. Filters sweeps, blocks, and unusual call/put ratios for directional conviction.

Options Flow Sweep Detection OI Spike

08 — Macro

Credit-Equity Divergence

Exploits the lead-lag relationship between credit spreads and equities. When credit markets price risk before equity markets adjust, it signals opportunity.

HYG/LQD Spread Analysis Lead-Lag

09 — Composite

Confluence Engine

When 2+ independent strategies agree on a ticker, the confluence engine creates a super-signal with boosted conviction, consensus targets, and tiered scoring.

Single Strategy

One engine fires. Base-level conviction with standard scoring. Useful for watchlist building and idea generation.

TIER 2 ~67% hit rate

Confirmed Signal

Two independent strategies agree. +8 point score boost. Consensus targets averaged across engines. Position size scales up.

// Signal Pipeline

From Data to Sized Position

Every signal passes through a four-stage pipeline that transforms raw data into a risk-managed, sized trade recommendation.

STAGE 01

Discovery & Scan

SEC EDGAR feeds, earnings calendars, options flow, sector ETFs, and credit markets. 2,500+ securities scanned hourly across all strategy engines.

STAGE 02

Scoring & Confluence

Each signal scored 0-100 on conviction, technical overlay, and regime context. Cross-strategy confluence boosts tier and expected hit rate.

STAGE 03

Barrier & Targets

Volatility-anchored take-profit and stop-loss via kurtosis-corrected first-passage model. Regime-adaptive TP/SL ensemble with time stops.

STAGE 04

Kelly Sizing

Fractional Kelly (f=0.25) position sizing with cross-sectional z-score ranking. Macro regime scales exposure. Risk parity allocation across active signals.

// Platform Edge

Built for Serious Traders

Infrastructure-level advantages that compound over time.

MACRO REGIME FILTER

Regime-Aware Positioning

Continuous macro regime assessment via VIX term structure, yield curve, credit stress, market breadth, and SPY trend. Automatically scales position sizes from 100% (Risk On) to 40% (Defensive).

RISK MANAGEMENT

Institutional Risk Controls

Per-trade risk caps (1% of equity), volatility-scaled stops, trailing stop tightening, time-based position decay, and portfolio-level drawdown monitoring. No signal bypasses the risk layer.

REST API & Webhooks

Programmatic access to all signals, regime data, confluence scores, and portfolio state. Integrate with your broker, build custom dashboards, or pipe signals into your own models.

POSITION MONITORING

Automated Alerts & Tracking

// FAQ

Common Questions

What data sources do you use?

SEC EDGAR (Form 4 and 13D filings), earnings calendars, options flow data, sector ETF pricing, credit market spreads (HYG/LQD), VIX term structure, and 6-month OHLCV history via market data providers.

How often are signals updated?

Full scans run hourly during market hours. The position monitor checks TP/SL/time-stop triggers at 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, and 16:00 ET. Free tier receives signals with a 15-minute delay.

What is confluence scoring?

When two or more independent strategies identify the same ticker, the confluence engine creates a boosted signal. Tier 2 (2 strategies) gets +8 points; Tier 3 (3+) gets +15 points. Historical hit rates increase significantly with tier level.

How is position sizing calculated?

Fractional Kelly criterion (f=0.25) with cross-sectional z-score ranking. Position scale adjusts by macro regime (40-100%). Per-trade risk is capped at 1% of account equity.

Can I integrate with my broker?

Alpha Desk and Institutional tiers include full REST API access. You can poll for signals, subscribe to webhooks, and integrate with any broker that accepts API orders. We do not execute trades on your behalf.

Is there a backtest?

Yes. Institutional tier includes access to the walk-forward backtest engine with trade simulation, Sharpe ratio, max drawdown, profit factor, and parameter sweep capabilities.
