The Trader’s Edge score, with every reason shown.

• Trend structure: half the trend score, so 0 to 50 points. The trend score is the share of fourteen daily chart checks that are true (every check).
• Relative volume: volume at two times its average or more adds 10, at 1.5 times adds 6, at its average adds 3.
• Insider buying: open-market purchases filed on Form 4 in 30 days add 10, or 15 when they total $1 million or more. Sales add nothing.
• Earnings proximity: a report within seven days takes off 10, because a scheduled event is close.
• Options: where the desk reads the chain, positive dealer gamma adds 5 and negative takes off 5. Calls at 60% of premium or more add 5, at 40% or less take off 5.
• Key levels: within 5% of the 52-week high adds 15. Otherwise, within 3% of the 50-day average while above the 200-day adds 10. Stretched more than 3 daily ranges above the 20-day takes off 5.

The sum is held between 0 and 100. Ties go to the higher trend score, then the higher relative volume. The formula was written down before it was run and changes only with a new published version.

What it is not: a forecast or a rating of what happens next. Nobody has measured it against later returns, so we publish no return or hit-rate figure for it. It ranks context, and it ranks only the names on this page.
