How to Read TraderStat Market Scores
Understand the 0-100 directional scale, missing data and the difference between a research score and a probability of profit.
What does a score mean?
Higher TraderStat directional scores indicate a stronger buy bias; lower scores indicate a stronger sell bias in the evaluated inputs. Display bands: below 20, Strong Sell; 20 to below 40, Sell; 40 to below 60, Neutral; 60 to below 80, Buy; 80 to 100, Strong Buy.
Is 80 a probability of profit?
No. A score of 80 is a directional research signal. It does not mean an 80% chance of profit, an 80% return or a recommendation to invest. A hypothetical score of 85 belongs to the Strong Buy display band without providing a calibrated probability of a profitable trade.
Why can components disagree?
Technical, pattern, on-chain and social inputs describe different evidence and timeframes. Inspect components and source dates alongside the overall score. A current quote does not mean every analytical input was updated at the same time.
How should missing data be read?
No data means an input is unavailable. It differs from a measured zero or a neutral reading. Compare instruments with similar coverage and timeframes. Check the source analysis date and open the original chart or evidence before interpreting a score.
