Breakout Lab

How this works

Every weekend the lab scans the 2,000 largest US-listed stocks by market value — always including every S&P 500 member — for the playbook's leaders and builds a watchlist. Every night after the close it looks for bases forming on those names, logs breakout and pocket-pivot signals, and steps a paper portfolio: entries fill at the next open, every position carries a hard stop, stale trades are timed out, winners are sold into strength or switched to the eight-week hold, and total exposure follows the market regime.

The rules were written down before the first session and are frozen — that is what pre-registered means. The verdict stays at Accruing until the pre-registered sample is complete; nothing before then is evidence of anything.

Paper forward test of a published trading method — hypothetical fills, no real capital, not investment advice. Results before the pre-registered sample is complete are noise.
