Changelog — Legend AI

2026-07-23 Improved Simple view is now a real calm workspace across the app

Overview, Scans, symbols, Market, Alerts, Ask, Legends, Account, and trade import now lead with concise Simple summaries; Advanced restores the full research workspace.
Mobile Search, Feedback, account links, and install controls now live in one More sheet instead of floating over charts and journal forms.
Research alerts use typed condition fields in Simple view, while Advanced keeps the validated JSON editor for power users.
Alpaca connections clearly disclose encrypted credential storage and automatic 15-minute fill checks; additional connected brokers remain approval-gated.

2026-07-23 Fixed Manual trade entry is fast and forgiving on phones

Only ticker and entry price are required; stop, target, shares, setup, and journal context can all be added later.
Simple view now puts a compact trade ticket near the top of the journal, while Advanced keeps the full research and review workflow.
Trade saves now confirm success before the journal refreshes, and mobile Search and Feedback live in the bottom-nav More sheet.

2026-07-18 New The morning briefing can now reach an enrolled browser

Pro members can explicitly opt into a weekday pre-open browser reminder from the account page; enabling saved-alert Web Push alone does not opt anyone in.
The email and first browser reminder follow New York time at 8:30 AM, with one push-only retry at 8:45 that never repeats a successful per-browser delivery.
The operating-system notification contains no ticker, position, or account data, opens the signed-in Playbook, and remains educational research rather than advice.

2026-07-14 Improved Simple and Advanced views now follow the account

The existing Simple or Advanced watchlist choice now drives one shared display mode across the signed-in app and is mirrored safely in the current browser.
The account page and user menu can switch views; Simple remains the calm default, while Advanced enables compact keyboard navigation with j, k, b, and Enter.
This foundation does not change scanner facts, grades, entitlements, trades, alerts, or orders; richer mode-specific research layouts will build on the same owner setting.

2026-07-14 Improved The five core destinations now stay one action away

Signed-in phones now keep Scan, Legends, Journal, Ask, and Me in one consistent bottom bar; wider screens use the same five destinations in a left rail.
A persistent phone button and the existing slash shortcut now search both symbols and a finite catalog of app commands, including phrases such as show me Minervini VCPs.
The command catalog only opens server-declared same-site destinations, and an automated navigation graph keeps every declared app destination within two actions.

2026-07-14 Improved Journal capture and portfolio heat now share the saved setup facts

A valid scan link now reloads its canonical ticker, pattern, Legend, and readiness plan instead of trusting editable URL values.
Open Positions now shows measured aggregate open R, and the position calculator shows current heat plus projected heat after the actual sized shares.
The heat comparison is descriptive risk math, not financial advice, and it does not create, change, or place a trade or order.

2026-07-14 New Coaching now replays A-grade setups against the full journal

Each unlocked Legend card compares realized R from recorded A/A+ entry-snapshot setups with realized R across every measured trade in that card.
The replay prefers the saved trade Legend, excludes post-entry grade evidence, and shows measured, graded, and ungraded sample counts.
This is a descriptive subset of recorded outcomes, not a forecast, causal promise, recommendation, regrade, or change to any journal row or broker order.

2026-07-14 Improved Open positions now use the saved Legend plan on every screen

The Book now computes current R, unrealized return, stop state, and target progress for both long and short journal positions from immutable saved-plan risk.
Each position carries its recorded Legend lens, factual earnings context, and a published-method checkpoint on both desktop and phone layouts.
The review never changes a trade, stop, target, or broker order and replaces directive trading language with attributed educational evidence.

2026-07-14 New Saved alerts can now reach an enabled browser

Web Push is an explicit per-browser choice on the Alerts page and uses the installed Legend AI service worker, encrypted browser subscription keys, and VAPID delivery.
Multiple owned browsers receive each event at most once per device; expired endpoints are retired while quiet hours, cooldown, and the existing event dedup remain in force.
Each notification opens the same private alert or journal action and is educational research, not a recommendation or an automatic order, trade, plan, or debrief change.

2026-07-14 New Alerts now continue into the trade review loop

Breakout, pattern-completion, and Minervini-pivot alerts can open the existing trade ticket with ticker, setup, Legend lens, and plan levels reloaded from the stored scan.
A saved-stop event can open the matching account-owned trade to record the actual exit and continue into the existing post-trade review.
Alert links remain educational and never place an order, close a trade, choose an outcome or mistake tag, change the saved plan, or generate a debrief automatically.

2026-07-14 New The watchlist now adapts to the trader and the setup

Simple and Advanced views, sorting, and legend/stage/sector grouping now persist per account, while every row keeps the same server-owned setup facts.
Each setup shows its exact distance from the detector-owned pivot and a transparent Buyable, Watch, Avoid, or Insufficient status from the canonical six-Legend evaluator.
A one-tap pivot alert on watchlist, scanner, and symbol surfaces reuses the server-derived setup level, creates no order, and leaves the saved trade plan unchanged.

2026-07-14 Trust Every AI mentor surface now shares one fail-closed safety boundary

Ask, market context, market recap, market open, coaching, and trade debriefs now reject impersonation, endorsement, guarantees, direct trade instructions, and attempts to override deterministic scanner rules.
A trade debrief's entry verdict is owned by the same-ticker canonical Legend evaluator, so optional wording cannot upgrade an Avoid setup to Buyable or downgrade a rule-backed verdict.
Every generated surface carries a local identity and advice disclosure. Missing, failed, malformed, or unsafe provider output falls back to a deterministic educational result instead of a server error.

2026-07-14 New A grounded market-open brief now starts the signed-in day

Market Open with the Legends summarizes the latest saved regime, distribution pressure, Stage-2 breadth, setup inventory, and highest-ranked setups on the dashboard.
Optional AI wording is accepted only when every ticker and number already exists in the strict fact digest; missing, unsafe, or invented output falls back to deterministic facts.
A private saved-plan check lists real open positions at or within 2% of their immutable stop using the latest cached close. Position facts never go to the AI provider, and no order or stop is changed.

2026-07-14 New One setup explanation now follows the full trade journal loop

Symbol pages, scanner rows, and linked journal entries now reuse one deterministic explanation of the setup facts and the relevant published method.
The explanation requires no language-model call, so it remains available when an AI provider is missing or unavailable.
Public and compact views keep the pattern, stage, volume, and relative-strength context while exact entry and stop levels remain protected.

2026-07-14 New Ask now sees each open trade's trend and stop state

Grounded Ask responses now include each real open position's dated cached close and exact live R alongside its 21-day and 50-day EMA distance.
The saved immutable plan stop is labeled intact or breached with direction-aware distance; missing stop evidence stays explicitly unavailable.
Trailing-stop guidance remains advisory-only and the canonical long-only engine is never applied to short positions or written back to an order.

2026-07-14 New Trade one setup through any Legend's published method

Each symbol setup now has a deterministic five-step playbook for pivot, entry, initial stop, trailing protection, and exit/invalidation.
Switch among Minervini, O'Neil, Livermore, Weinstein, Darvas, and Wyckoff without changing the scanner's canonical setup geometry or verdict evidence.
The published-method workflow and sources are public; exact setup prices remain Pro-only. The plan is educational and never changes an order or stop automatically.

2026-07-14 New Legend screens now use the actual rules — with a new Consensus view

Each mentor tab now keeps only setups that pass that mentor's deterministic methodology check as Buyable or Watch; owning a pattern name alone is not enough.
The new Consensus tab requires at least two independent Legend checks to rate the same setup Buyable and names every agreeing methodology on the row.
Mentor-hub totals and scanner-tab totals now share the same rule evaluation and unique-symbol contract, so the displayed counts match the setups users can open.

2026-07-14 Trust Scanner ranking now uses full-universe RS and calibrated setup quality

RS Rank now applies O'Neil's quarterly weighting (40% latest quarter, 20% each for the 6-, 9-, and 12-month horizons) and ranks every eligible symbol from 1 to 99 across the complete scan universe.
The default scanner order is now a fitted Setup Quality probability based only on signal-time volume, weekly-confirmation, and market-regime evidence.
In a 1,522-outcome no-lookahead replay, the later 128-outcome holdout's top quintile reached the target before the stop 30.8% of the time versus 21.9% overall. Historical, not predictive.

2026-07-14 Trust VCP detection now has a frozen real-market acceptance set

Ten hand-reviewed VCP windows and ten real non-VCP windows now form an offline regression set with immutable source hashes.
The current detector recognizes 10/10 labeled positives and rejects 10/10 negatives, exceeding the required 8/10 positive threshold.
The cases test pattern classification, not future returns; they do not make a setup predictive.

2026-07-14 Trust Weekly confirmation and market-risk discipline now share one verdict

Every qualified daily pattern now records whether its weekly chart was evaluated and confirmed, so multi-timeframe evidence is auditable.
When the market has more than five distribution days and no current Follow-Through Day, an otherwise actionable setup is shown as Watch.
A 509-symbol no-lookahead replay measured 1,522 resolved setups: target-before-stop precision was 21.7% at baseline, 22.7% after weekly confirmation, and 26.0% after the market-risk gate. Historical, not predictive.

2026-07-14 Trust Replay percentages now wait for 30 observations

Pattern and Legend proof rates are now hidden until at least 30 eligible, executable, non-overlapping observations exist.
Thin samples still show that evidence is building, but no longer turn a small sample into a percentage claim.
The target-before-stop calculation, source dates, and historical-not-predictive framing are unchanged.

2026-07-14 New Pivot Watch: see high-quality bases before the breakout

Forming VCP and Cup & Handle bases within 5% of their pivot now show the exact remaining distance, price-tightness trend, and volume dry-up evidence.
A recent-pace trading-day band gives planning context without pretending to forecast when a breakout will happen.
Pivot Watch is visible inline on desktop and tap-to-expand on phones. It remains an educational watch level, never a buy signal.
Opted-in Pro users can now receive a watchlist alert when a forming base is within 2% of its pivot, volume is drying up, and its 30-week moving average is rising. The note is an early watch condition, not a breakout or entry signal.

2026-07-04 New Proof everywhere: live outcomes, pattern aftermath, and a sharper funnel

Every pattern page now shows "What Happened Next" — real forward returns 5/10/20/40 sessions after the scanner flagged that pattern, plus median best move and worst drawdown. Point-in-time, deduped, no lookahead.
Hall of Fame entries show their actual price change since the signal date.
The Proof Center classifies live breakout attempts by pattern, legend, and market regime, with an honest guide to reading target-before-stop observations and average R.
New pages: the ten-minute daily routine (/how-to-use) and an honest comparison vs other scanners (/vs).
Academy redesigned with per-legend identity; pricing CTAs clarified (free needs no card, the Pro trial does).

2026-07-01 New Public tool previews, changelog, and security.txt

Gated tools (Market Internals, RS Leaders, Sectors, Industry Groups, Earnings, Compare, Calculator, Pattern Performance, Premarket, Ask the Legends) now show public preview pages instead of a login wall.
This changelog page, so you can see what's shipping.
Published security.txt for responsible vulnerability disclosure.

2026-07-01 Security Platform hardening pass

Broker API keys are now encrypted at rest.
Dependency security audits are blocking in CI, with all framework advisories resolved via the FastAPI/Starlette upgrade.
Feedback endpoint hardened; production API docs disabled.
Company snapshot fallback on symbol pages when the third-party profile widget fails.

2026-06-13 Fix Weekend-aware freshness and data resilience

Scan staleness warnings are now market-calendar aware — no more false 'stale data' alarms over weekends.
Added Cboe as a free quote provider in the fallback chain (Yahoo → Stooq → Cboe → Polygon → TwelveData).
Fixed post-login errors on the Overview and Playbook pages.

2026-06-03 New Historical replay context + candlestick signals

Added pattern and legend replay context with target, stop, horizon, sample-size gates, and historical-use caveats.
Candlestick confirmation signals (engulfing, hammer, shooting star, doji) on symbol pages.
Legend Council consensus verdict on symbol scorecards.
Dedicated SEO bio pages for all six legends.

2026-06-02 New SEC EDGAR fundamentals and market heatmap

Market cap, revenue growth, and EPS now sourced from SEC EDGAR filings — verified against reality, not free-tier approximations.
S&P 500 sector heatmap on the Market page.
Company profile widget and time-bounded BASE zone box on symbol charts.

2026-06-01 Improved legendscanner.com launch + detector accuracy pass

Launched on legendscanner.com with HTTPS.
Seven pattern-detector formula fixes (Darvas Box recency, Wyckoff Spring volume gate, Cup & Handle handle length, VCP pivot placement, and more).
