SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill turns fragmented market context, trade logs, and journal snippets into falsifiable, ranked trade hypothesis cards so traders can run efficient experiments and reduce false-positive entries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hypothesis generation: Produce 1–5 structured hypothesis cards that include thesis, mechanism, evidence basis, proposed rule changes, kill criteria, and a minimum viable experiment.
  • Critique and ranking: Apply critique prompts and scoring components to surface feasibility, evidence strength, and priority, enabling rapid triage of candidate ideas.
  • Export & integration: Validate outputs against included JSON schemas, generate output bundles, and optionally export pursue recommendations as strategy.yaml and metadata.json compatible with edge-finder-candidate/v1.
  • Use case: A trader with an earnings-gap breakout strategy provides a normalized input bundle and receives ranked, testable hypotheses plus next actions for A/B backtesting.

Quick Start

Generate 1-3 falsifiable trade hypotheses from the provided normalized input bundle and export pursue recommendations as strategy.yaml and metadata.json.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate testable trade strategy hypotheses from trade logs?

Testable trade strategy hypotheses are generated by providing a normalized JSON input bundle with trade logs and market context. The system outputs 1-5 ranked, falsifiable hypothesis cards containing proposed rule changes, kill criteria, and minimum viable experiments for A/B backtesting.

What is a falsifiable trade hypothesis and why do I need one?

A falsifiable trade hypothesis is a structured thesis with a defined mechanism, evidence basis, and kill criteria that can be proven invalid through experimentation. You need one to run efficient minimum viable experiments, reduce false-positive entries, and rapidly triage candidate strategy ideas.

What is the best way to structure trade analytics data for hypothesis testing?

The best way to structure trade analytics data for hypothesis testing is using a normalized JSON input bundle. This bundle must contain specific keys: objective, strategy_context, constraints, market_context, trade_log_summary, and journal_snippets to successfully generate ranked hypothesis cards.

Does the generated trade hypothesis output work with backtesting platforms?

Yes, the generated trade hypothesis output works with backtesting setups by validating outputs against included JSON schemas and exporting pursue recommendations. It generates strategy.yaml and metadata.json files compatible with edge-finder-candidate/v1 for downstream A/B backtesting integration.

Can I use journal snippets and market context for strategy ideation?

Yes, you can use journal snippets and market context for strategy ideation by including them in your normalized JSON input bundle. The system processes these inputs alongside trade logs to apply critique prompts, score evidence strength, and surface ranked trade hypothesis cards.

When should I not use automated hypothesis generation for trade analytics?

You should not use automated hypothesis generation when you lack a normalized JSON input bundle containing structured trade logs and market context. The system requires objective, strategy_context, constraints, trade_log_summary, and journal_snippets to produce valid, falsifiable trade hypothesis cards.
