QL Showdown — Engine vs Wall Street

Every time the QL signal engine materially disagrees with Wall Street consensus, the wager goes on the record: both sides, the date, the price at open. Then the tape grades it — engine right, Street right, or push. Forward-only. Never backfilled. Never rewritten.

The ledger opened . Wagers are on the tape below; grades post as price action settles them. Nothing here is backfilled — the record you see is the record as it happened.

🎯 The battlefront — where the open wagers stand

Live from the open ledger — running edges only, nothing settled. Every wager rides between the two settle lines; the tape decides which one it hits.

The private-market twin: QL Showdown grades the engine against Wall Street on listed names. QL IPO Ledger does the same before a company is listed at all — a dated valuation range on every pre-IPO name, graded when it lists.

📐 The rules — stated up front, applied without exception

A showdown opens when… the engine composite is ≥62 (bull) or ≤38 (bear) while the average latest-per-firm analyst rating from ≥2 firms leans the other way. A lukewarm rating plus a median target ≥10% below price also reads as a Street bear lean.

It settles outright when… price moves ±10% from the open, signed in engine terms: +10% and the engine takes the win, −10% and the Street does.

Convergence & expiry… if the disagreement disappears after 5+ days, or 90 days pass, the wager grades where it stands: beyond ±2% picks a winner, inside it is a push.

Forward-only… no wager is backfilled, no grade is rewritten. Day one showed an empty scoreboard; everything since is the record as it happened.

FAQ — QL Showdown

What is QL Showdown?

A forward-only, publicly graded ledger of every material disagreement between the QuantLogix 5-factor engine and Wall Street analyst consensus. Each disagreement is logged as a wager when it appears and graded later by the tape.

Why does it only count forward?

So the record cannot be curated after the fact: a wager is recorded when the disagreement exists, before the outcome is known, and every wager is graded on the same rules. Nothing is added or removed retroactively.

Is this investment advice?

No. It is an accountability record for a quantitative model versus consensus — educational, with past performance not guaranteeing future results.
