Lab research — Tradour

What we tested

Within Consumer Discretionary RISE observations, how did BMO and AMC directional success rates compare?

The specification was frozen before this run. Neutral and unevaluated cases do not enter the directional success-rate denominator.

What we found

58.8% matched the frozen rule.

97 matched and 68 did not, from 165 directional cases.

Eligible observations: 220
Distinct tickers: 68
Evidence period: 22 Nov 2022 – 7 Aug 2026

How strong is the evidence?

Keep the range beside the headline.

The 95% Wilson interval is 51.2% to 66%. The archive was already exposed, so this is not a clean holdout result.

What this does not prove

A useful historical result is not a trading instruction.

The outcome is the frozen rule-aligned legacy directional result, not a canonical market return.
This archive was available before the Lab test was registered, so the result is exploratory rather than clean out-of-sample evidence.
Repeated tickers and shared market events may reduce the effective sample size.

What could we test next?

Fork the question; never rewrite this result.

A variation becomes a new frozen research object linked back to this study.
