In the last few months, I have shipped several background upgrades to make the system faster and more transparent. Here is what is new:
Integrated Backtest Dashboard The new backtest dashboard pulls performance data directly to chartingcycles.com/backtester. Every signal setup includes full historical metrics:
Win rate
Average % move
Median % move
Scanner posts now link directly to the backtester. When you see a signal, click it to see the full performance history instantly. You no longer have to search or copy-paste.
Top Signals and Recent Winners Every scanner post now includes two new sections for immediate context:
Top Signals: The highest-probability setups from the scan based on win rate, median move, and data points. These are at the beginning of each post.
Recent Winners: The top performers from prior scans. These are listed at the end of each post.
Indicator Update If you have not updated lately, please grab the latest version on TradingView. It includes stability improvements and enhanced alerts.

Win Rate = the percentage of signals where price moves favorably within the next 5 bars. Tested on daily/weekly/monthly histories using up to 30/60/90 years of data (as available). The number in parentheses is the signal count (N).
Median % Move = the median of each signal’s best percent change within the 1–5 bar forward window. Each signal’s best outcome is identified independently, then the median is calculated across all signals. Median is shown because it’s more robust than an average when outliers exist. Note: this differs from the backtester dashboard, which shows the median at each individual candle offset (a fixed holding period).
An asterisk (*) indicates multi-timeframe continuity: the same-direction exhaustion signal appears on 2+ timeframes within the defined alignment window.
