How this page is selected
Two measurements have to agree for a window to be shown. Per-bar direction asks, for each interval, whether the projection and the market moved the same way from the previous bar — here 63.3%. Net direction asks whether both were on the same side of the starting price — here 63.3%. A third measurement checks the SIZE of the move: the projected distance travelled against the actual, here 0.61×. A window has to satisfy all three to appear — agreeing on direction while badly missing the size is not a match.
What it does and does not say
This is one recorded window, selected because the paths agreed. It is not a typical result, not an average, and not a claim about future accuracy. Aggregate measurements across all recorded forecasts are the honest place to judge accuracy overall.
The forecast shown here has fully matured and was compared against recorded market data after the fact. Live projections are part of the LiveCharts.AI platform and are not published here.
