Weekly Research

A real case study based on our latest research run. Every week, we test thousands of symbols, develop strategy variations, validate them out-of-sample, and show what the results would have been using a single $100,000 account.

$100,000 Portfolio Case Study Result

The real Top-100 qualified symbols replayed chronologically through one shared $100,000 account — real cash lockup, a real trailing-21-day liquidity cap on every trade, no fabricated partial fills.

Top 100 Qualified Symbols

Every real symbol from this run that cleared the promotion bar (beats both the S&P 500 and buying and holding the symbol itself over the real out-of-sample window), ranked and selected for the replay above.

Historical Trade Record

Every real event the replay considered, executed AND skipped, in the order it actually happened. Skipped rows are shown by default with their real reason (insufficient cash, or the trailing-21-day liquidity cap). Sizing shows which real rule set the trade's size: a flat $2,000 whenever real cash on hand was below $100,000, or 5% of real cash on hand once at or above it — capital allocation switches automatically, trade by trade, based on real available cash, never total account value. Available Cash is the real cash on hand at the moment each trade was decided — the number a skipped-for-cash row is being compared against.

Out-of-Sample

The real, held-out last 2 calendar years of each symbol's history — never seen by development, used only to confirm.

How This $100,000 Portfolio Was Sized

The exact, fixed, disclosed sizing rule used for THIS specific replay — the Top 100 AND-qualified symbols above, replayed chronologically through one real, cash-constrained shared account. Never a hypothetical, unconstrained allocation.

$2,000

Below $100,000 Principal

Minimum trade size while the account is below its $100,000 starting principal.

5%

At Or Above $100,000

Trade size becomes 5% of real current cash on hand once the account reaches $100,000 — recalculated fresh for every trade, never a stale snapshot.

≤10%

Trailing 21-Day ADV

No single trade may exceed 10% of the symbol's own real trailing 21-trading-day average daily dollar volume — a real liquidity constraint so the strategy never needs a trade bigger than the stock could realistically absorb in a day.

Max hold: 60 calendar days per position, applied to every trade in this replay.

Historical results are based on backtesting and simulated trading against real, already-persisted market data and a real, cash-constrained single-account replay.
