What is a Confidence Score?
How TradeMind AI scores signal conviction on a 0–100 scale and what the thresholds mean.
The simple version
The confidence score is a number from 50 to 100 that reflects how certain the AI is about a signal. Higher = more conviction. Only signals scoring 50 or above are published.
What goes into it
The score is derived from three underlying factors:
- Technical score — price action, momentum indicators (RSI, MACD), volume, moving averages
- Fundamental score — P/E ratio, earnings growth, revenue trend, analyst coverage
- Sentiment score — recent news sentiment, social signal, sector momentum
The AI (Claude) weighs these factors and produces a final confidence score along with the signal direction and price levels.
Thresholds
- 50–59 — Low confidence. Signal meets minimum threshold but has notable uncertainty.
- 60–74 — Medium confidence. Reasonable conviction with some conflicting factors.
- 75–89 — High confidence. Strong alignment across multiple factors.
- 90–100 — Very high confidence. Rare. Strong consensus across technical, fundamental, and sentiment.
Does higher confidence mean a guaranteed win?
No. High confidence signals still lose — the market is unpredictable. Confidence reflects the strength of the evidence at the time the signal was generated, not a prediction of the future. The stop loss exists precisely because no signal is certain.
