Signal level
HIGH CONVICTION — stocks today
Score range 85-100. All six factors — trend, relative strength, fundamentals, smart money, macro, and momentum — aligned positive at high sub-score values. The strongest tier in the Tapeline scoring system; usually only a handful of names hold this label at any given time.
How HIGH CONVICTION is determined
Every US ticker in the active scanner universe is scored with the public six-factor composite: Trend, Relative Strength, Fundamentals, Smart Money, Macro, and Momentum — weighted most toward Trend and Relative Strength, least toward Momentum. Names whose composite score falls in the 85-100 band get the HIGH CONVICTION label automatically. No human curation — the label transitions when the data does.

How often does the HIGH CONVICTION list update?
+
The public list is a saved snapshot: it is cached for an hour, and the first visit after that still gets the old copy while a new one is built, so it can be an hour old or more. Prices are delayed about 15 minutes, and scores usually change about once a day because most of their inputs are daily readings. The in-app scanner shows the latest data when you open it.
Where can I see the HIGH CONVICTION historical track record?
+
The /scorecard page back-checks each recorded daily top-10 pick against the next-day return vs SPY. Many of those picks come from the STRONG SETUP and HIGH CONVICTION tiers; the scorecard preserves every individual call for accountability.
