Focused
Each tool begins with a clearly defined market question.
MARKET DATA HUNTER
MARKET IDEAS. TESTED.
MARKET DATA TOOLS
Test the claim.Measure the evidence.
Focused tools for examining returns, benchmarks, drawdowns, and market behavior without turning every question into a trading signal.
Each tool is designed to make the calculation and its assumptions understandable rather than hiding them behind a score.
Tool library in development
Calculations before conclusions.
THE TOOLKIT
Useful questions.
Transparent answers.
Market Data Hunter tools are built around specific research questions. The goal is not to predict what happens next, but to make historical evidence easier to examine and understand.
Comparable
Benchmarks provide context for results that can otherwise look impressive in isolation.
Transparent
Important assumptions and calculation rules stay visible.
FIRST TOOL
Historical Return Calculator
Start with a simple question: what actually happened to an investment over a chosen period, and how did that compare with the broader market?
Historical Return Calculator
Examine a security across a selected historical period and put its return into context with a consistent market benchmark.
THE QUESTIONHow did this investment actually perform during this period?
PLANNED OUTPUT
Total return
Annualized return
SPY benchmark return
Excess return vs. SPY
Maximum drawdown
$10,000 growth
01
Calculation rules will be explicit.
Before this tool is released, its treatment of adjusted prices, non-trading dates, benchmark alignment, annualization, and drawdown calculation will be documented alongside the results.
TOOL ROADMAP
Built around questions, not dashboards.
Additional tools can reuse the same historical-data foundation while answering distinct questions about performance and market behavior.
TOOL 002PLANNED
Stock vs. SPY
THE QUESTIONDid this stock actually outperform the market?
Compare a security with SPY over the same historical window using consistent return conventions.
TOOL 003PLANNED
Drawdown Analysis
THE QUESTIONHow painful were the declines along the way?
Examine peak-to-trough losses, recovery behavior, and the difference between final return and the path taken to get there.
TOOL 004PLANNED
Trend Quality Explorer
THE QUESTIONWhat does persistent strength above trend look like?
Explore trend measurements related to the published Trend Quality investigation without presenting the research signal as investment advice.
TOOLS AND RESEARCH
Measurement is nota recommendation.
A calculator can describe historical behavior. It cannot tell us that the same behavior will repeat or that a security is a good investment.
When a tool connects to a Market Data Hunter investigation, the underlying research record remains separate and visible.
DATA STANDARD
The source matters.
Historical calculations are only as defensible as the data underneath them. Market Data Hunter will document the data source and relevant conventions used by each released tool.
Tools that require market data will not be presented as production-ready until an appropriate data source and usage arrangement are in place.
