We spent years experimenting TA trading before accepting it doesn’t hold up. Our quant model has been profitable from the start — the TA experiments never were.
TA had an edge decades ago, before quant trading existed. That edge is mostly gone now, competed away. It’s why only ~1% of day traders are profitable today.
This is gonna upset a lot of people:
But TA is astrology for traders.
It's confirmation bias + trading human psychology about entries.
Kinda like how people frontran $SPCE from $SPCX IPO expecting retail to mess up tickers by trading psychology.
$SIVE didn't go up 1900% because of the golden cross space comet firebreathing dragon candle that someone is trying to sell for $499.
It's because markets are pricing in future revenue from $JBL, $GFS that got announced.
$AXTI didn't go up 8000% because the golden waterfall candle alert sounded back at $8.
it's because of InP substrate, game theory on ASP hikes, export controls, photonics demand, and others.
If you want to figure out psychologically what other regards are believing, you use TA.
But for determining the actual upside... nah
People have been drawing $120+ TAs on $IREN for the past idk how many months none of that crap matters when there's a $6B ATM that needs to be bought through first.
It's by theme (eg. $LITE to $AAOI relations), any news catalysts that affect forward revenue, projections, macro news, earnings, float dynamics, and so on.
Then you can just derive what MC that company should be at.
So for entry points, sure you can use TA.
For determining where the stock heads, just throw the tyrannosaurs rex omega-green candle indicator out the window.
SpaceX ($SPCX) debuts at a $1.77T valuation. The $75B IPO is the largest on record. Shares popped 25%+ on the Nasdaq, making SpaceX the #6 most-valuable U.S. company and Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire. Starlink: $11.4B in 2025 revenue at a 39% margin.

Gasoline up 40.5% YoY. Energy up 23.5%, driving over 60% of the monthly gain.
Core held at 2.9% — but the energy shock owns this print.
Seagate (#STX) is up 563.6% in a year. The stock went from $127.70 to $847.47, with a market cap now near $190B. AI data-center storage demand is doing the heavy lifting.
Chip stocks ripped back Monday. #SOXX +7% after Friday's 10% selloff, its worst since March 2020. #MU +10%, #INTC +12%, #MRVL +9%. SOXX is still up 91% in 2026 — the AI chip bull run holds despite the swings.
What an amazing year SO FAR. While the $SPX is up 3.85% in 2026, QuantGT has delivered 94.9% YTD.
Based on our model’s performance over the past 8 years, we believe this may only be the beginning of a strong year ahead.
