THE EDGE · WHAT THE MODEL DOES
/ asymmetric band-breach + 4 conviction overlays
METHODOLOGYVR-MULTI-HOUR / §1
// THE BAND-BREACH

The breach is the signal.
The overlay is the conviction.

Multi Hour catches the same band breaches as Day Trade but holds them for hours instead of closing same-session. The engine uses an asymmetric EWMA bandKL=1.45σ down, KU=1.52σ up, because markets crash faster than they rally. Four conviction overlays — Peak, High, Scaled, Workhorse — score multi-timeframe agreement, volume profile, cross-asset confluence, and regime alignment. Best edge sits on dislocations driven by positioning, not news.

TREND ↗

Above: a stylised price action against the EWMA band. The dotted channel is the asymmetric band (KL=1.45σ, KU=1.52σ). The amber box is the breach event — first cross of upper or lower edge per side per session. The entry circle is the published entry; the green line is the exit target; the red line is the stop. Hold is 0.5-2 sessions, not same-session.

— PRINCIPLE 01 —

EWMA Band Engine

Per-instrument 21-day half-life EWMA band, recomputed every minute. Asymmetric KL=1.45σ, KU=1.52σ. First breach per side per session is a candidate signal.

— PRINCIPLE 02 —

4 Conviction Overlays

Each breach is scored by four overlays: Peak (multi-TF agreement), High (volume profile), Scaled (cross-asset confluence), Workhorse (regime alignment). Sum drives the grade.

— PRINCIPLE 03 —

Grade Permanent At Entry

Conviction grade A–E is set at the moment of entry and does not change in flight. Grade A requires ≥4.50% avg/trade with three or more overlays firing.

— PRINCIPLE 04 —

Returns Are Raw

Every figure is reported raw and unweighted — no portfolio sizing, no fees baked in. +404% YTD across 262 signals. Reconciled annually by AuditedTrader.

CONVICTION CALIBRATION · DECLARED vs ACTUAL
/ does the grade actually predict the outcome?
VERIFIED12M · n=7,920

The grade means what it says.

For each grade, the model declares an expected win-rate band at entry. Below: actual closed-rate vs band. All five grades land inside their declared bands over the rolling 12-month window — the model is well-calibrated.

METHODOLOGY · §2

Five inputs. One verdict.

The Multi Hour engine fires on a band breach — but every raw breach is scored by four conviction overlays before publication. The grade encodes how many overlays agree and how cleanly. The breach gets you to the trade. The overlays get you to the grade.

— INPUT 01 · MECHANICAL —
EWMA Breach

First cross of upper or lower edge per side per session. KL=1.45σ, KU=1.52σ asymmetric. Pure mechanics.

— INPUT 02 · OVERLAYS —
Peak · High · Scaled · Workhorse

Four conviction overlays score multi-TF, volume, cross-asset, regime. Each breach gets a score. Quant scoring.

— OUTPUT · GRADE —
Conviction A–E

Alignment determines grade. A is full agreement. E is marginal. Permanent at entry.

// What it does

Band-breach detection on the asymmetric EWMA band. The same edge as Day Trade, held for 0.5-2 sessions instead of closed same-session. Best edge on dislocations driven by positioning, not news.

// How it grades

Conviction A–E by overlay agreement. Grade A requires three+ overlays firing and ≥4.50% avg expectation; Grade E is speculative. Grade is permanent at entry.

// How returns are reported

Returns reported raw and unweighted, before any portfolio sizing rules. Audited annually by AuditedTrader.

Honest about the edge. Honest about the limits.

The Multi Hour Model has a defined operating envelope. Inside that envelope, it is the highest-volume engine in the VR family. Outside it, it is silent. Below: the explicit list of what the model claims and does not claim — written down, on the record.

Operating Envelope
  • Asymmetric EWMA band-breach detection on ~30 instruments per session
  • First cross per side per session · 0.5-2 session hold (~12h avg)
  • Grading A through E by 4-overlay conviction, set at entry
  • Long & short, 262 published signals 2026 YTD
  • Returns reported raw and unweighted, before fees and slippage
  • Cryptographically timestamped at the moment of publication
  • Audited annually by AuditedTrader · 2020 — 2025
Out of Scope
  • Calling tops or bottoms · the model does not predict reversals
  • Working on news-driven gap moves · best edge on positioning dislocations
  • Fee-adjusted or slippage-included returns · execution is yours
  • A guarantee against drawdowns · max DD has reached 34% historically
  • Performance during illiquid / halted markets · gap-risk excluded
  • Any specific position sizing · sizing is a portfolio-level decision
  • Investment advice · the model is a signal, not a recommendation
