LAB now ships a free Idea Feed: rule-shaped trading ideas, deliberately untested
A small release, not a launch. The LAB tab on gex.live has a new rightmost rail called IDEA FEED . It is a stream of short, rule-shaped trading ideas about SPX dealer positioning — "fade the first touch of the call wall after a gap up", that kind of thing — collected daily by a scanner from what people actually discuss, rewritten into something the Lab compiler can parse, and published untested . That last word is the point. Why untested is the feature Every feed of trading ideas on the internet comes with a verdict attached: "this works", "78% win rate", a screenshot of a good month. The feed here refuses to do that. Each card says exactly two things about its idea: compiles clean (our compiler turned the text into a runnable rule without complaint) and untested (nobody has run it against the archive yet). The honest test is yours to run. One click drops the idea into the Lab conveyor. The compiler has already done the translation, so the first message in your session is the rule itself, stamped ↳ from IDEA FEED · compiles, untested . Running the backtest costs one Lab credit; a failed job refunds itself. If your balance is zero the button does not go dead — it turns into 0 CREDITS · BUY → , remembers the idea you picked, and comes back to it after. What you will not find No source attribution on the cards. The idea is the unit, not the poster. No win rates, no "rated", no thumbs. The archive is 1,000+ finished SPX sessions; the Lab tests against all of it with an out-of-sample split and tells you what survived, which so far is: very little. That verdict is worth more than a badge on a card. No approval gate. The scanner's finds ship directly every day, so the feed stays fresh by itself. "NEW" is personal — it means new since you last opened the rail, not new for everyone. Why build a feed that mostly produces "no" Because the alternative is pretending. The whole site is built on measuring dealer positioning from the tape instead of assuming it from yesterday's ope
