SniperMachine works by scanning 8 independent intelligence sources, scoring each one, and combining them into a single AI convergence score. A trade is published only when several unrelated sources agree at the same moment and the combined score clears a set threshold. Every published signal carries a defined entry, a take profit, and a stop loss, so the plan is fixed before the trade opens rather than adjusted after. This article explains each source, the convergence rule, the scoring threshold, and how entry and exit levels are assigned.
The Core Idea: Convergence, Not Prediction
Most signal tools rely on one input, usually a chart indicator. A single input is easy to fool. Volume can be faked, a chart pattern can fail, and one news headline can be misleading. SniperMachine takes a different approach. Instead of trusting any single reading, it asks a simpler question: do several unrelated forms of evidence point the same direction at the same time?
That is convergence. When an insider files a purchase, options traders position for upside, retail chatter accelerates, and price is holding a technical level, those four observations come from four separate behaviors. Agreement between them is far more informative than any one of them alone. Convergence is the filter that keeps only these lined up setups and rejects everything else.
The 8 Intelligence Sources
Each source measures a distinct behavior. They are deliberately chosen so that they do not repeat the same signal in different clothing.
SEC EDGAR Insider Filings
Form 4 filings show when company officers and directors buy or sell their own stock. Insider purchases are a rare, hard to fake signal drawn straight from public regulatory data.
Unusual Options Flow
Large or unusual call and put activity relative to normal volume. It shows where positioned traders are placing directional bets ahead of a move.
Reddit Velocity
The rate of change in mentions across active trading communities. Acceleration matters more than raw volume, since it captures attention shifting in real time.
News Sentiment
Natural language scoring of headlines and articles across many financial feeds. Direction and intensity are both measured, not just headline count.
Technical Levels
Support, resistance, and volatility bands from recent price history. These define where a move is structurally likely to react.
Fear and Greed Index
A market wide sentiment gauge used to read regime. Extreme fear and extreme greed change how the other seven sources should be weighted.
Funding Rates
Perpetual futures funding shows whether leverage is crowded long or short. Overcrowded positioning often precedes sharp reversals.
Social Momentum
Broader social signal beyond a single platform, tracking whether attention is building or fading across networks over time.
How the AI Convergence Score Is Built
Each source outputs a normalized reading. A raw number from EDGAR, a percentage from funding rates, and a sentiment value from news cannot be compared directly, so every source is converted to a common scale first. The AI layer then weights each reading by how reliable that source has been in the current market regime, and by how strong the individual reading is.
Weighting is not fixed. In a fearful regime, contrarian sources carry more influence. In a trending regime, momentum sources carry more. The Fear and Greed input helps set that context. The weighted readings are summed into one convergence score on a 0 to 100 scale.
The Threshold Rule
A high score from a single loud source is not enough. Two conditions must both be met before a signal is published:
- Multiple source agreement. Several independent sources, not one, must point the same direction. One source spiking alone is treated as noise.
- Score above threshold. The combined convergence score must clear a set floor. Setups below it are logged internally but never sent as a signal.
The effect is that most candidate setups are rejected. The tool is built to stay quiet far more often than it speaks, because a smaller number of well supported signals is more useful than a constant stream of weak ones.
How Entry and Exit Levels Are Assigned
Once a setup clears convergence and threshold, it is turned into a concrete plan. Entry is placed near the current structural level identified by the technical source. Take profit and stop loss are derived from recent volatility, so a calm asset gets tighter targets and a volatile asset gets wider ones. This keeps the reward to risk ratio consistent across very different assets.
Because the plan is fixed at publication, the outcome can be judged honestly later. Every signal resolves as a defined win or loss against its own stated levels, which is what makes a transparent track record possible in the first place.
Honesty About Results
SniperMachine does not advertise accuracy percentages that sound impressive. The historical closed signal win rate sits near 28 percent, and that number is shown on a public track record rather than hidden. A win rate under half is normal for a system that aims for larger winners than losers, but only if risk is managed on every trade. No convergence score removes the risk of loss. The value comes from a repeatable process, transparent reporting, and a free entry point, not from promises of guaranteed profit.
