Coil Why Not

Before any buy: why a name is not a candidate today. GET /api/board/whynot?sym=NVDA returns the plain reason on the live board: the gate for its book and sector, its entry window (READY, SETUP, WAIT, CHASE, FALLING, BASING) and earnings inside five trading days, or the state that makes it a candidate. One symbol per read; an unknown symbol fails free with a 400. ~5-min refresh. States and reasons

Before the order: your own trade against the desk's discipline. GET /api/board/checktrade?sym=NVDA&entry=54.20&stop=51.50 checks a long on the live board: the stop's distance, a chase or falling state, earnings inside five trading days, the gate, and the Coil Live rulebook's sizing (the position the stop buys at its risk, the one-name cap, entry guards). Verdict: consistent, wait or pass. Optional

What CHANGED on the board since your last check — change detection for polling agents. Pass ?since=<hash from the FREE /api/board/state> for the deltas: names entering or leaving the READY pool, per-name trend, light, leadership and hold-band flips, and any regime or permission-ladder move per book (S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, macro).

Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 14 US trading sessions, 5-minute bars (2026) — verdict: FAIL. FAIL means the idea did not pass the study's pre-registered bar.

On strong stocks with a prior 30% run-up and a tight base, does buying the break of the opening-range high make money after costs and the S&P 500, and does it beat buying the open at equal risk? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10.7 years of 30-minute and daily bars, 783 symbols (2016 to 2026-10-02) — verdict: FAIL. FAIL means the breakout did not pass the study's pre-registered bar: its trades

Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 9.4 years of daily bars, S&P 500 members, SPY, QQQ and credit ETFs (2017-01-03 to 2026-06-01) — verdict: THIN. Not enough evidence either way. Full te

After a liquid, neglected US stock gaps up 10% or more on at least 3 times its normal volume, does buying the next open and trailing a 10-day average beat the S&P 500 net of costs? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10.5 years of daily bars, liquid US stocks (2016-01-01 to 2026-06-30) — verdict: THIN. Not enough evidence either way. Full text of the study, one read.

When a sector group's ETF leads the S&P 500 at 10:00 ET, do the group's laggards by recent return beat the S&P 500 from 10:00 ET to the close, after costs? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10 years of 30-minute bars, 14 sector and industry ETF groups (2016-10 to 2026-10-09) — verdict: REFUTED. Full text of the study, one read.

After SPY or QQQ gaps down 0.75% or more with a red first 30-minute bar, does buying the matching -3x index fund at 10:00 ET and selling once the index recovers its open, or near the close, make money after costs? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10 years of 30-minute bars, SPY, QQQ, SOXX and three -3x index funds (2016-10-18 to 2026-10-09) — verdict: THIN. Not enough evidence either way. Full

When a liquid US stock closes a session with high volatility, a low daily RSI and a price well under its medium-term moving average, does buying it at 10:00 ET the next session and selling at the close beat the S&P 500 over the same hours, after costs? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10 years of 30-minute bars, 441 US stocks and SPY (2016 to 2026-10-02) — verdict: THIN. Not enough evidence eit

Does buying a US stock that passes a published trend template and then breaks out of a tightening base beat the S&P 500, net of costs, when the rule is read literally? Pre-registered Backtrader backtest, 10.7 years of daily bars, 640 US stocks (2016 to 2026-10-02) — verdict: FAIL. FAIL means the rule did not pass the study's pre-registered bar: its out-of-sample trades trailed the S&P 500. Full te
