Everything Soar does, explained

A trade card is a single setup published by the Soar engine. Every card has eight parts:

• Asset — ticker + category (crypto / stock / ETF / commodity).
• Direction — LONG (expecting price up) or SHORT (expecting price down).
• Timeframe — today / week / month / quarter / year / multi-year. Affects the size of the price moves the setup expects.
• Conviction — 0-95 score. Higher = stronger setup. See conviction tiers below.
• Entry zone — the price range where entering offers the best risk/reward.
• Stop loss — where the setup is wrong. Exit here to limit the loss.
• Target 1 / Target 2 — profit goals. T1 is the first take-profit; T2 is the extended target if momentum continues.
• Thesis — the plain-English reasoning. Why this asset, why now, what would invalidate it.

Conviction is a 0-95 score the engine computes across 13 independent signals — technical indicators, multi-timeframe alignment, volatility, market breadth, recent outcome history, news / sentiment, and macro fit. The specific weighting is proprietary, but it's deterministic within a session: re-running the analysis on the same inputs produces the same score.

Every candidate setup runs through a final quality gate before it can publish. If any of these checks fail, the card is dropped:

• Risk-reward floor. R:R must be ≥ 1.5 : 1 (typically ≥ 2.5 : 1 for gold). A bad-RR setup gets rejected even if conviction is high.
• Stop-distance floor. The stop must sit at least N ATRs from entry — too tight and the setup gets stopped on noise.
• Stop-distance ceiling. Stop too wide for the timeframe also rejects — a "today" card can't have a 10% stop.
• Target side check. T1 must be above entry for longs (below for shorts); same for T2 relative to T1.
• Stamped vs computed R:R. The R:R the engine cites must match the R:R the levels actually imply — within 0.1.
• Signal coherence. Direction must agree with the underlying indicator stack — no bullish cards in a clearly bearish regime.
• Stale-T2 reject. If the live price has already passed T2 at publish time, the card is rejected (the trade is over).

A signal is "multi-timeframe aligned" when bullish or bearish signals appear consistently across multiple chart horizons (daily, 4-hour, 1-hour). Alignment is a strong filter against false breakouts and choppy ranges.

Example: a card on BTC with conviction 84 and "aligned" status means the daily, 4h, and 1h charts all show bullish signals at publish time — daily and 4h showing an uptrend while 1h is consolidating is NOT alignment.

A card earns the gold marker when it passes every tightening filter the engine has:

• Conviction ≥ 80.
• Multi-timeframe aligned.
• R:R ≥ 2.5 : 1.
• Recent win rate on similar setups ≥ 60%.
• Setup quality score ≥ 75 (internal composite).
• Macro fit ≥ 40 (i.e. the broader regime isn't hostile to the direction).

Capped at 2 gold cards per session, so quality stays high. A typical session publishes 6-10 total cards; at most 2 are gold.

Tokens are Soar's in-product currency. They unlock on-demand reports, regenerations, and extended targets. You earn tokens by using the platform (daily streaks, sharing wins, signup bonuses, milestones) or buy them in packs from the Stripe-backed wallet.

• Light report — 1 token.
• Medium report — 3 tokens.
• Full / Institutional report — 10 tokens.
• Regenerate an existing report — 30% discount on the underlying tier price.
• Extend target (after T2 hit) — 1 token.
• Auto-reload — opt-in. Top up automatically when balance drops below your threshold (monthly USD cap enforced).

When you opt in, Soar deploys a Cloudflare Worker to YOUR Cloudflare account. The Worker runs on a 1-minute cron tick — every minute, it:

• Polls Soar for any new signals that match your risk profile + broker capabilities.
• Checks your broker directly for cash + current positions.
• Computes a position size against your tier's max % and per-trade dollar cap.
• Places bracketed orders (entry + stop + take-profit) at the broker — natively where supported, simulated where not.
• Reports a heartbeat back to Soar so the dashboard can show live equity / open positions / 24h trade log.

You can pause / resume / disconnect from the dashboard at any time. Disconnect rotates the Worker's auth secret and instructs you to destroy the Worker from your Cloudflare dashboard.

Watch any ticker (registered or unregistered) and get notified the next time Soar publishes a setup on it. Track a specific trade card to follow its target / stop progression in your hub.

• Watchlist — assets you're monitoring. Soar fires a push when a new signal lands on a watched asset.
• Tracked cards — specific live cards you've pinned. Push fires on target hit, stop, or retirement.
• Holdings — assets you actually own (Pro+). Soar recommends BUY MORE / SELL / HOLD per position.

Soar can push real-time alerts to your phone or desktop browser. 14 alert kinds total, each independently toggleable. On iOS you'll be walked through Add-to-Home-Screen; on Android, macOS, and Windows it's a single permission prompt.

• T1 hit / T2 hit / stop triggered / card retired
• Session published (new cards)
• Asset on your watchlist matched a session signal
• MIDAS daily / weekly digest, MIDAS open / close trade, MIDAS journal entry
• Macro critical event (FOMC, breaking macro — bypasses Pro gate)
• Quiet hours, per-device toggles, dedup / rate-limiting baked in
