Note:
The examples and setups featured in this article are not presented as precise entry or exit points, nor are they intended to suggest that anyone could have captured the exact bottom or top. Rather, they are meant to highlight the potential of the move based on the data we provide. Our focus is on identifying asymmetrical opportunities—where even capturing a portion of the move can be highly meaningful. As with George Soros’s famous short of the British pound—where the full potential was $3 billion, but only $1 billion was realized—the value lies in recognizing the setup, not perfection. Our institutional clients understand this well: they use our signals as a foundation and apply their own strategies to extract what fits their model. Success often comes from capturing the meat of the move, not chasing extremes.

These examples are meant to demonstrate how the data helps surface potential opportunities—not to suggest specific trades or outcomes. It is up to each individual to decide how they want to use the information. Our institutional clients value this work because we do the homework—they take the data, run it through their own models and strategies, and determine what fits.
