Live condition · historical base rate

Crowd long, leaders not

Global accounts sit at least 65% long while top traders run at least 10 points less long than the crowd.

What is a base rate?

Firing now (provisional, current bucket)

The live read is not yet enabled. This surface reports the historical base rates below; the firing-now list turns on when the live evaluator is connected.

What has happened when it held

Historically, when Crowd long, leaders not held (5,240 occurrences in the scanned window, 4,422 with a computable 24h horizon), the market reached +5% within 24h in 1,195 of 4,422 (27.0) and drew down 10%+ in 316 of 4,422 (7.1). Maximum favorable (MFE) and maximum adverse (MAE) excursions, both computed forward.

Pick a window and a move size: how often did a move at least that big follow?

WINDOWMOVE SIZE

🔒 Measured after every match, never by keeping winners. 4,566 of the matches have a complete 1 hour forward; the other 674 are too recent to know.

What are MFE and MAE?

Why 7 days can show fewer than 1 hour: a match too recent for a complete 7 days is left out of that count entirely, even if it already reached the level within 1 hour. The two counts cover different sets of matches.

How to read a distribution
Upside reached · 24hUpside reached (MFE, 24h)The most price moved up within 24h of each occurrence: a high-water mark, never a close. 4,422 with a complete 24h.
Drawdown · 24hDrawdown (MAE, 24h)The worst price moved against within 24h of each occurrence: the deepest point, never the close. 4,422 with a complete 24h.

Versus baseline

Historically, when any eligible minute in the window (baseline) held (24,138,277 occurrences in the scanned window, 21,155,069 with a computable 24h horizon), the market reached +5% within 24h in 6,138,981 of 21,155,069 (29.0) and drew down 10%+ in 1,322,100 of 21,155,069 (6.2). Maximum favorable (MFE) and maximum adverse (MAE) excursions, both computed forward.

Same key, same bytes. This receipt reruns; it does not retell. When the record grows, the dataset revision changes and says so.

Re-run this yourself, over the API or from an AI agent

This is the exact search definition behind the receipt. Send it to the key-authed research API (or the MCP research tool) and compare the bytes: a cached rerun is free.

How to read this

  • Counts ship with denominators: occurrences across the eligible symbol-buckets scanned. A rate is over the occurrences with a computable horizon (present), never the total.
  • Absent is absent. When a feature was not warm at a minute, that bucket leaves the denominator and is reported; it is never coerced to zero.
  • This selects a setup, never its outcome. The grammar forbids filtering on what followed (OUTCOME_IN_PREDICATE), so the distribution below is over every occurrence, not a survivorship-picked subset.

Occurrences are observed examples in a selected archive, not a guarantee. Outcomes are computed forward from each anchor and are descriptive, never a filter and never a prediction. Nothing here is trading advice.
