Risk/Reward

The Group Risk/Reward category tracks the percentage of companies within each industry or theme that present favorable risk/reward setups based on identified structural levels. These group-level metrics are designed to surface sectors where long or short setups show strong upside or downside asymmetry—helping traders prioritize groups that offer the cleanest and most promising opportunities.

Each signal is derived from individual ticker-level risk/reward calculations and aggregated to show how much of the group meets or exceeds a defined quality threshold. For example, a high percentage of tickers with a risk/reward ratio above 2.0 or 3.0 signals widespread opportunity within that group and makes it a strong candidate for deeper screening.

Importantly, these metrics are independent of the AI-selected Alpha Strategy and instead reflect the full spectrum of structurally sound long or short setups, including those surfaced through custom strategies. This makes them highly flexible tools for discretionary and systematic workflows alike.

These metrics are especially useful when:

  • Filtering for industry or theme strength aligned with risk-managed trade setups
  • Identifying where the best asymmetric opportunities are clustered
  • Supporting rotation strategies or directional exposure models
  • Confirming setup quality when combined with group momentum or technical filters
  • Scanning for sectors with widespread long or short potential, even if not favored by AI bias

All values are calculated in real time, allowing you to act on intraday shifts in structural quality across sectors.

Risk/Reward 1st Long 2+ (%)

Percentage of companies within the group that have an initial (first-resistance-based) long setup with a risk/reward ratio of 2 or higher. This version focuses on conservative estimates based on the nearest structural resistance level.

Use this metric to identify groups where a high proportion of stocks offer early-stage long setups with favorable asymmetry and minimal friction. Particularly valuable for breakout or momentum traders looking for clean entry potential without deep resistance overhead.

Risk/Reward 1st Short 2+ (%)

Percentage of companies within the group that have an initial (first-support-based) short setup with a risk/reward ratio of 2 or higher. This metric highlights downside setups with nearby structural clarity.

Ideal for identifying sectors with short setups offering clear breakdown paths and limited early support. Use this to find groups that support near-term short ideas with disciplined risk control.

Risk/Reward Long 3+ (%)

Percentage of companies in the group with a long setup showing a risk/reward ratio of 3 or higher, based on the full path to the final target. This highlights the strongest asymmetric long opportunities.

Use this metric to spot groups with widespread high-upside potential among their constituents. This is especially helpful for traders seeking scalable long strategies with strong payoff profiles and clearly defined stop zones.

Risk/Reward Short 3+ (%)

Percentage of tickers in the group with a short setup exhibiting a risk/reward ratio of 3 or higher, calculated using the path to the final support-based target. Focuses on setups with strong downside asymmetry.

Helpful for surfacing bearish groups where the majority of tickers offer attractive short opportunities. This supports both individual trade discovery and broader sector-level short strategy deployment.
