Independent quant research · Backtested over eight years
We show every signal. Even the losing ones.
Before the open, our models scan 7,000+ U.S. securities and flag the strongest buy setups. Every signal follows the same rules from entry to exit — win or lose, it counts.
The scorecard · Buy Signals
Signals get 90 days. Then we grade them.
We don't score fresh calls. Every buy signal is entered at the next open and held twelve months, then counted — win or lose. These are backtested results across roughly eight years of history.

Backtested results — not the performance of any live account or actual trades. One signal = one ticker on one entry day. Each signal is entered at the next session's opening price and held for 12 months; returns shown are realized (closed) results only. Signals are graded only after they are at least 90 days old — fresh calls are not scored. Coverage: 323 completed buy signals entered between January 2018 and June 2025 (each held 12 months, so results run through mid-2026) — an ~8-year period. “S&P 500, same period” is the return of SPY over each signal's own entry-to-exit holding window, averaged across all signals. Results are gross — no commissions, fees, slippage, or taxes are deducted — and reflect strategy rules developed using this same historical data (in-sample). Past performance is not indicative of future results, and hypothetical results have inherent limitations.
