AI Stock Market Predictions

The same six-stage pipeline that prices sports markets, retrained on equities. Every trading session the engine scores our US large-cap, megacap-tech and ETF universe across eight weighted factors, calibrates a probability that each call resolves correct, and compares it against the probability already priced into the tape. It publishes six conviction calls, four swing setups and three volatility reads — each with an expected move, an invalidation level and a fractional-Kelly position weight.

Rolling window anchored to a 1,000,000-idea Monte-Carlo validation. Blended accuracy 57.4% against a 38.5% break-even at the published invalidation distance. Directional equity models live in the mid-50s — anyone quoting you 80% is quoting a curve fit.

Measured accuracy

No settled ideas have been graded in the published ledger yet. This panel fills in from the settlement ledger as results land — nothing is shown before it is measured.

Two-timeframe confirmation is live. Every published idea must agree with both its 20-day and its 50-day trend before it posts — a long fighting either timeframe is discarded, a short against either is discarded. Non-equity assets (metals, energy, agriculture, bonds) are gated by their own benchmark trend, never the equity index.

How a session is built

Six stages, run in the same order every session. Nothing is published until the calibration stage agrees with the sizing stage.

1 · Universe screen

Liquidity, spread and borrow floors remove anything where the published entry and invalidation could not realistically be filled.

2 · Factor scoring

Eight weighted inputs — trend quality, earnings revision drift, flow, breadth, volatility term structure and more — collapse into one composite score.

3 · Calibration

The composite is mapped to a probability using out-of-sample sessions only, so the number quoted is the number that historically resolved.

4 · Edge test

That probability is compared against what the tape already prices. Ideas without a material gap are discarded, however good the score looked.

5 · Risk sizing

Survivors get a fractional-Kelly weight capped well below full Kelly, plus an explicit invalidation level so a loss is bounded.

6 · Publication

Thirteen ideas post before the open with the full reasoning attached. Nothing is edited after the fact — the record stands as published.

Frequently asked questions

What subscribers ask before they pay for the equity desk.

What exactly do I get each session?

Thirteen published ideas: six conviction calls, four swing setups and three volatility reads. Each carries a calibrated probability, an expected move, an invalidation level and a fractional-Kelly position weight, posted before the US open.

How is the AI stock model different from a stock screener?

A screener filters on static conditions. ASCEND-EQ scores the universe across eight weighted factors, converts the composite into a calibrated probability, then only publishes an idea when that probability is materially better than the one already priced into the tape.

What accuracy should I expect?

Blended validated accuracy sits in the mid-50s across a large Monte-Carlo sample, against a 38.5% break-even at the published invalidation distance. Directional equity models that claim 80% are curve fits — we publish the real number and the sample size behind it.

Which markets does it cover?

US large caps, megacap technology and liquid ETFs. Names must clear liquidity and spread floors so that published entries and invalidations are realistically fillable.

How does billing work?

Access is paid upfront: $50 for a month, $135 for a quarter or $480 for a year. There is no auto-renew trap — when a term ends, access ends unless you renew.
