Minervini's VCP breakouts. O'Neil's growth screen. Darvas boxes, Livermore's pivotal points, the Turtles' channels, academic momentum, Piotroski's F-Score — and your own strategy. Twelve methodologies, one honest arena.

Every legend generates signals with its own rules — but they all compete under identical conditions: the full US stock universe including delisted companies, the same starting capital, the same commissions and slippage, and the same selection when there are more candidates than slots.
The result is something no trading book will show you: what each mythology actually delivers when the survivorship bias is removed and the costs are real. Some legends shine. Some legends bleed. Both results are the product.
Each strategy gets a Monte Carlo selection band — did its stock picking beat 100 random selections, or was it luck? — plus in-sample / out-of-sample validation, a year-by-year race table, and point-in-time candidate lists: what would each method buy today?
And with one click, the AI referee writes an extensive, chart-illustrated report on the whole duel: who won, at what risk, and what that teaches about each philosophy.

The monthly screen AAII tracked in real time since 1998 — quarterly EPS +20% accelerating, point-in-time, near 52-week highs.
O'Neil-style technical half: 7+ week bases, pivot + volume, the +20% sell rule and the famous 8-week exception.
Stacked boxes at 52-week highs — the original trailing stop, from a dancer who made $2,000,000 by telegram.
Yearly highs pierced after a ≥10% shakeout, volume expanding, and his 10% rule as the exit.
Dennis & Eckhardt's System 2: 55-day Donchian breakouts, 2N stops. Spoiler: stocks are not futures — and that lesson is the point.
The Stage 1→2 transition over the 30-week moving average, with volume confirmation.
Momentum 12-1, 52-Week High and Dual Momentum with its risk-on/off switch — measured against each other.
