CG1 CHASING GIANTS

Wave-4 Swing Radar · US Small & Mid Caps

Chasing Giants

One setup, tracked across a ~3,400-name universe every market day: the wave-4 correction, the pause in a strong young uptrend before its next leg. When a setup qualifies, CG1 prints the exact order for the next open, sized to your bankroll, then monitors the two exit rules daily until the position closes. You execute at your own broker. We never touch your money.

How it works

CG1 runs a fixed process. Every decision is made by a rule set in advance, and the same three steps repeat for every trade.

I

Scan

The radar finds the setup.

Every market day, CG1 scans roughly 3,400 US small and mid caps for one setup: a confirmed uptrend pulling back into its wave-4 correction. Most names never qualify, and on most days nothing does. That is the normal output of the filter.

II

Order

You place it at the open.

When a setup qualifies, CG1 prints the order before the bell: ticker, exact share count, and estimated cost, sized to the bankroll you set once. You place it at your own broker at the open. There are no intraday alerts.

III

Exit

Two exit rules close every trade.

From your fill on, CG1 checks the position against the two exit rules every market day and tells you when one of them closes the trade. Until then, the position is held.

What you get

CG1 produces the signals and monitors the positions. You place every order yourself, at your own broker.

Daily Radar

The full ~3,400-name universe scanned every market day for one setup. The results are ready before the market opens.

Exact Open Orders

Ticker, share count, and estimated cost, computed from the last close and sized to your bankroll, ready before the bell.

Exit Monitoring GFV

Every position you log is checked daily against both exit rules, with a settlement badge for cash accounts to help you avoid good-faith violations.

Flat Days

Most days the radar finds no qualifying setup and reports FLAT in large letters. The system does not generate trades to look active.

The Frozen Backtest

All 85 trades the strategy was selected on are open to subscribers, trade by trade and month by month. The record is frozen and will not be re-cut.

No Broker Connection

You execute every order yourself, at your own broker. CG1 has no account integration and never holds your credentials or your money.

The doctrine

Subscribers read the full mechanics behind the paywall. The principles below are public. They were written once and they do not change.

Ratified · June 2026 Amendments · None

Article I. One setup.

CG1 trades the wave-4 correction in US small & mid caps. It will not add a second setup, a regime mode, a sentiment feed, or a discretionary override. The scope stays narrow so the strategy can be tested and reported honestly.

Article II. Entries only at the next open, pre-sized.

Signals are computed on the last close. Orders are placed at the next open, with share counts fixed in advance against your stated bankroll. There are no intraday entries, no alerts to chase, and no adding to open positions.

Article III. Two exit rules.

Every position closes by exactly one of two rules, monitored daily. There are no breakeven stops, no time stops, and no rotating into other names. Each of those variants was tested and each reduced returns. Winners are held until one of the two rules closes the trade.

Article IV. Most days are flat.

The system does not manufacture trades. A day with no qualifying setup is reported as FLAT, and that is a correct output.

Article V. The mechanics are sealed.

Subscribers see every rule, every threshold, and every line of the doctrine. Nothing is a black box once you subscribe. Publicly, the parameters stay sealed, because an edge described in full stops being one. Sealed also means fixed: the rules are not re-tuned when a month goes badly.

Footnotes, permanent

  1. One window. The backtest is a single 10-month in-sample run: Aug 2025 to Jun 2026, $8K start. Parameters were iterated on this window. The out-of-sample haircut is unknown until the strategy is walked forward. Treat +76.3% as a ceiling, not a forecast.
  2. Survivor-biased universe. Delisted names are absent from the data, which biases results UP. This bias applies to the live scanner too, not just the backtest.
  3. Concentrated P&L. The top 5 trades account for roughly 68% of total profit. That is the normal shape of trend-following, and it means missing the best fills matters.
  4. Research tool, not investment advice. CG1 publishes signals and monitors rules. It does not know your situation, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
  5. Paper-trade first. Run the signals on paper before risking money you care about. If the paper results disappoint, you have lost nothing.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to connect my broker?

No. CG1 has no broker integration. You place every order yourself at whatever broker you already use, then log the fill so the exit monitor can track the position. We never hold your money, your credentials, or your positions.

Why won't you show the exact rules before I pay?

A quantified edge published in full stops being an edge. What we publish instead, permanently, is everything that constrains us: the doctrine articles, the frozen backtest, and the footnotes, including the ones that make the results look worse. Once you subscribe, every rule and every threshold is open to you. Nothing inside is a black box.

What happens most days?

FLAT. Most days the radar finds no qualifying setup and says so in large letters. That is the expected output, not a malfunction. If you want trades every day, this is the wrong tool.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly is $29; yearly is $290, which works out to two months free. Both cancel from the billing portal, and you keep access through the period you paid for.

Is this investment advice?

No. CG1 is a research tool: it scans, sizes, and monitors by fixed rules. It knows nothing about your finances, taxes, or risk tolerance. The backtest is one in-sample window on a survivor-biased universe. Paper-trade the signals before risking money you care about.
