Introducing v3 Signal Scoring: Smarter Signals, Higher Win Rates
What's New in v3
We've completely rebuilt our signal scoring engine. The new v3 system features 13 scoring factors across four categories, totaling 100 points. Every signal that flows through USStockRadar now receives a more precise quality assessment.
Key Upgrades
-
Polymarket Alignment (7pts) — We now cross-reference signal direction against prediction market consensus from Polymarket via the Gamma API. When institutional flow aligns with market-wide expectations, the conviction score increases.
-
Recalibrated Weights — Since incoming signals are already pre-filtered (premium > $250K, Vol/OI > 1.5, bid/ask skew > 70%), factors that are already enforced by the source receive reduced weight. This allows quant factors and flow factors to be the primary discriminators.
-
Enhanced Greeks Analysis (8pts) — Delta sweet spot detection (0.25-0.55), theta decay assessment, and vega/IV correlation are now baked into the scoring model.
-
IV Environment (8pts) — Low implied volatility environments (under 20%) receive maximum points, as options in these conditions offer better risk/reward. Extreme IV above 85% scores zero.
