The method

We measure what already happened, and print the sample size next to it.

A headline carries a timestamp. A bar carries a timestamp. Line the two up and the story sits on the chart at the minute it landed, rather than beside it in a column you have to reconcile yourself.

For any event you can name, the terminal gathers the comparable ones already on record and reports what the price did afterwards: the size of the first move, the hour it peaked, and how many of them had reversed by the close.

Sample size is never left behind in a footnote. Where a pattern rests on n = 9 observations, the terminal prints the nine, and you get to decide whether nine is enough.

Each claim goes into the logbook with a timestamp, before its outcome is known, and it stays there once the outcome arrives. The misses are as easy to find as the hits.
