​
Overview

The terminal implements eight independent pattern detectors. Each detector runs in parallel every 30 seconds. A maximum of 2 signals per pattern per cycle are surfaced to avoid notification flooding.
All detectors only surface markets where acceptingOrders=true — live order-book activity is confirmed before any signal fires.

​
Pattern 1 — 🔀 Intersection

Strongest Signal Monitors all followed wallets for trades made within the last 2 hours. When 2 or more wallets appear in the same market, an intersection is recorded. The most commonly chosen outcome is surfaced as the signal direction. Why it works: Multiple independent informed traders simultaneously entering the same market signals shared conviction or non-public information.
Requires at least 2 followed wallets. Add 5–10 known whale addresses from apeindex.trade for best results.

​
Pattern 2 — 📰 Pre-News Trading

Detects markets with abnormally high short-term volume relative to lifetime volume — a reliable indicator of information asymmetry before a news event. Enriched with Google News RSS — fetches related articles published in the last 8 hours and adds context to whether the volume spike is news-driven or potential insider trading.
Why it works: A sudden spike in 24h volume as a fraction of total lifetime volume suggests informed traders positioning ahead of an expected announcement.

​
Pattern 3 — ⚡ Quick Flip

Targets markets where the price is in the 30–70% range with $5k+ daily volume — maximum uncertainty and high volatility opportunity.
Why it works: Binary outcomes near 50% are highly sensitive to new information. A small directional edge produces outsized risk/reward.

​
Pattern 4 — 🎲 Contrarian Plays

Identifies low-probability outcomes (5–22%) that remain open and liquid with $10k+ lifetime volume.
Why it works: Thinly-covered markets with real liquidity sometimes misprice tail events. The $10k floor ensures meaningful two-sided activity.
Contrarian plays carry higher risk by design. Use Low risk level for this pattern.

​
Pattern 5 — 📈 Position Growth

Scans current open positions of all followed wallets. Any position worth ≥$500 in an actively tradeable market generates a signal.
Why it works: Captures steady accumulation that doesn’t produce short-term volume spikes. Large quietly-held positions often precede significant moves.

​
Pattern 6 — 🔁 Position Add-On

Detects when a tracked wallet adds more than 10% to an existing position. Notification includes: first entry time (UTC), amount added (+$X), average entry price, and total position size.
Why it works: Adding to a position is the strongest possible signal of conviction — the trader already has skin in the game and is doubling down.

​
Pattern 7 — 🦑 Big Entry

Detects large single entries from tracked wallets in the last hour, classified by size:
Why it works: Large, decisive entries from wallets you follow are among the most actionable signals on the platform.

​
Pattern 8 — 👛 Wallet Follow

Fires immediately when any tracked wallet makes a trade within the last 30 minutes — before any other pattern runs its analysis.
This is the real-time notification layer — you see the trade as it happens, not after a 30-second analysis cycle.

​
Exit Alert

A separate system (not a pattern) that monitors your open positions. When a tracked whale reduces or closes a position in a market you are also long, an immediate exit notification fires with an “Exit” button. Exit alerts cannot be disabled while monitoring is running — they are always active.

​
Signal Deduplication

Signals will not re-fire for the same market/pattern combination within 24 hours, managed via a per-user deduplication dictionary with a 24-hour TTL.
