What Makes Viride Different
- 35 independent studies — each finding is independently testable and falsifiable
- Rule traceability — every live rule maps back to at least one study
- Forward audit — v1.0 rules survived out-of-sample testing, no curve-fitting detected (Study 32)
- Quality gating — R²-based signal filter skips ~49% of days to preserve win rate
- Asymmetric payoff — TP+10% / Lim-5% with 1.8× payoff ratio at 43.5% WR remains EV-positive
- Pattern basis — D-streak chaining probability > 60% after 3 consecutive down-days (Study 3)

Research Foundation — Key Findings
Pattern Asymmetry
D-days (down-days) outnumber U-days ~57/43 in SPX across the 506-day study window. More importantly, D-patterns chain at a higher rate — after 3 consecutive D-days, the probability of a 4th is above 60%. This asymmetry is the core signal.
Signal Quality
Approximately 49% of trading days produce no clean signal (Study 24). The R²-based quality gate (Study 18/31) filters these out, concentrating capital on high-confidence days and preserving the win rate above 40%.
Entry Geometry
5-delta OTM SPXW contracts entered between 9:45–10:15 AM capture the majority of the intraday move with limited premium exposure. Fill rates above 73% at mid within 2 minutes reduce slippage to under 5% of premium (Studies 8–10).
Risk Controls
FOMC days and major earnings windows are excluded by rule (Studies 16–17). VIX above 25 triggers a skip rule — false signal rate doubles in high-volatility regimes. Hard stop at 5% of session capital per trade (Study 21).
