↳ In detail
How to read the odds
This is a historical rate, and an experimental one: across 25 years, stocks in the same state — same segment, same price phase, same volatility, same momentum — pulled back this often. The record is built from today's list of companies, so names that delisted along the way are missing and each stock's current segment is projected backward; the rates lean toward survivors until that rebuild lands. Compare the multiple against the segment rather than the bare percentage — recent years run higher than the full 25-year record. None of it predicts timing.

The simple version

Every charting site detects the pattern. We publish what happened next — the forward win-rate and sample size at each horizon, including the famous patterns that historically meant nothing.
The readForward win-rates, with sample sizewhere it sits
How often each chart pattern was actually followed by a gain, and how many past cases that's based on — including famous ones that didn't work.
Each bar is the win-rate — how often the price was higher that many days after the pattern appeared. The line marks 50%, a coin flip: green beats it, red is worse than chance.

Why we show you the losers
Famous reversal signals like a bullish engulfing have historically closed higher less than half the time at short horizons — below a coin flip. We publish the win-rate and the sample size on every cohort, so a 42-case base rate never masquerades as an 8,500-case one. Objective base rates, not forecasts.

↳ In detail
Reading risk
A beta of 0.63 means that, historically, a 1% move in the S&P has come with a ~0.63% move here. Realized vol ran 26% and the largest drawdown observed in the trailing year was 13% — both are what happened, not a bound on what can. The drawdown band above is observational — a risk sort against names of the same segment, blind to balance-sheet failures that never showed in the price.

Failure modes · Bank
Different businesses break in different ways. This section reshapes by company type — these are the specific failure modes for a name like this one.
The readBankwhere it sitsrouted by company type
Different company types fail in different ways — a bank runs on deposits, a hyper-growth name on its valuation. These are the specific ways a stock like this tends to break.
Deposit flight-0.9%
Quarter-over-quarter change in deposits. A bank fails on the liability side — outflows force fire-sales of assets, so a shrinking deposit base is the leading run signal.
Uninsured deposits9.1%
Share of deposits above the insurance cap. Uninsured money leaves first and fastest in a panic — a large tranche makes a run more likely to feed on itself.
Market-implied default risk2.5%
A 1-year default probability backed out of the equity market (bank-tuned Merton, with deposits + debt as the liability face). The market's own read on solvency stress.

Among funds that held the name through both quarters, more trimmed than added. Separately, the registered-holder count moved -14 quarter-over-quarter (21 new, 35 exited).

Net gamma of — is the dollar hedging effect per 1% move — the consequence a raw chain never tells you.
CLBK is +2.1% ahead of the peer average (-0.11%). Divergence from the group is where the stock-specific signal lives.

Why we show the rear-view mirror
Every number on this page gets graded by what happens next. The time machine is the same idea pointed backwards: the state of this name at each past date and the move that followed, for any symbol — not a curated highlight reel.

The case against
What can break: how hard this name has fallen before, a sensible position cap, whether it behaves like a lottery ticket, how much cash it has left, how it drifts after earnings, whether the dividend holds, and what changed in the filings — plus a crowding read when its three inputs agree.

Reading the fate ledger
Each row is what happened to every tracked name in this size cohort over that window — delisted for cause, acquired, or still listed — with the band around each rate. These are the cohort's historical frequencies, not probabilities for this name, and the acquisition arm is never an acquisition forecast.
Deep-drawdown recovery record

Names this size that fell 30% took a median 245 trading days to reclaim their prior high — and only 56.3% did within 3 years once the delisted are counted (a survivor-only screen would claim 65.7%).

How post-earnings drift works
After an earnings reaction, how far price keeps drifting over the next 63 trading days depends on how big the first move was. A jump more than four times the stock's normal daily move usually spends the effect — the market has already repriced it. Milder reactions historically kept drifting, by about 3.2 percentage points in our sample.
