Not investment advice. RETROGRADE is an educational backtesting/research tool — it does not recommend any security, options contract, or strategy. Backtest “edge” statistics are historical, survivorship-biased, and not a forecast of future returns. Options trading carries substantial risk of loss.

Signal factors

The composable, plug-and-play vocabulary shared across the live engine, ORB, ORBIT, and RETROGRADE — the same factors bots gate on and the backtest calibrates. Filter by category:

🔎 Look up a ticker

Enter a symbol for its current setup — price (flagged if not intraday-live), the strongest chart pattern + confluence — and the desk's recommendation. Then backtest that setup point-in-time. Informational, not advice.

Backtest a gate set

Build a gate set from the shared factor vocabulary, then replay it point-in-time over ~1 year of daily bars (no look-ahead). The result is the EDGE — the gate set’s forward return minus the unconditional base rate over the same names — at 5 / 10 / 20-day horizons. Price + chart-pattern factors reconstruct historically today; gamma / dark-pool / IV / theme / level / volume conditions are honestly dropped and reported (no as-of source yet). Past performance does not indicate future results — this is a historical signal-quality read, not a forecast.

Level chart + top-down banner SOON

Per selected trade/day: price with every level drawn on it — dark-pool zones, weekly/monthly/quarterly VAL/VAH/POC, HVN/LVN, GEX/DEX, EMAs, fib (color-coded support/resistance) — a top-down banner (multi-TF structure/sentiment alignment, EMA stack, regime) and a table of the highest-notional / most-reacted levels.
