Method, and its limits

What the system does, stage by stage.

Two screens run on the same name in the same pass: an automated Shariah approximation, and a momentum read. This page describes what each stage produces, and where the account stops.

The pipeline

01

Universe

A working list of listed US equities the system tracks day to day. What is in it and what is not is a data decision, never a prediction — and it moves as our coverage moves.

02

Shariah screen

Each name gets an AAOIFI-style business and financial-ratio approximation, returning one of the states below. The screen runs before the ranking, so every name on the board carries a verdict — including “we could not tell”.

03

Relative strength

A percentile for how a name is trading against the rest of the tracked list, not against its own past. Because it is a ranking, it moves when the market moves and not only when the name does.

RS PERCENTILE
04

Setup detection

A letter grade for the shape of the setup, ordered A+ down to D. The grade is the whole of what we publish; what produces it is not described here, and is not described anywhere public.

A+ABCD
05

Entry and risk framing

The terminal frames an entry level and the risk beside it, so a plan exists before a decision does. No arithmetic is shown here, no worked example, and nothing is sized to your account.

Delivery

Today, delivery means you open the terminal and the day's work is already done. Per-account alerts are built but not switched on, so nobody outside the founders receives them — when that changes, this stage changes with it.

What we will not publish

What produces a grade stays on our servers, permanently and on purpose. We will tell you what a grade means and how to read it; we will not publish the recipe, and saying that plainly seems more honest than calling it proprietary and leaving it there.

☪ The Shariah screen

Every name carries a verdict, and we show you which. More names read Unverified than any other verdict — a statement about our data coverage, not about the company. We would rather tell you we don't know than guess in your favour.

  • COMPLIANT
  • REVIEW
  • UNVERIFIED
  • NON COMPLIANT
  • UNKNOWN

Automated advisory approximation — not a fatwa or certification; verify independently.

More names show ? than any other mark. It means we do not yet hold both ratio figures for that name: we gather those figures one name at a time, so ? reflects how far our evidence reaches, not a judgement about the company.

What it does not do

It places no orders and connects to no broker. There is no execution path in the product at all — not a live one, not a simulated one — so nothing you read here becomes a trade unless you place it yourself.

Educational market research — not advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Nothing here is tailored to your circumstances and no adviser-client relationship is created. We are not registered as an investment adviser, dealer or broker in any jurisdiction.

The Shariah screen is an automated approximation of an AAOIFI-style test, run against vendor fundamentals that are sometimes missing and sometimes stale. It issues no ruling and carries no endorsement from any scholar or certification body. Verify with a qualified scholar before you act on it.

The analysis runs on end-of-day data. The intraday prices on the board are last-trade prices from a single exchange, not the consolidated tape — they are supplied by third parties, they can differ from what your broker shows, and they are sometimes wrong. Full-tape and streaming quotes are not included and are not on the near-term roadmap. If you need to act on the tick, this is not your tool.

On a session where nothing meets the bar, the system produces nothing and sends nothing. That is deliberate and it will not be “fixed”: a tool that finds a setup every single day is a tool that has stopped discriminating.

A founder reads every message directly. If approved, we email you to say so, and a sign-in link whenever you ask to sign in — check junk and spam. We do not write otherwise.
