ftd-detector

ftd-detector is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BaggaT236/AI-Trading-Skills. It costs 110 tokens per session (1,413 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of ftd-detector, MIT.

A market-analysis tool that looks for Follow-Through Day signals, which are strong upward sessions that William O’Neil’s method uses to help confirm a possible market bottom. It follows both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq through rally and post-signal stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine rally attempts, bottom confirmation, Follow-Through Day quality, post-signal health, and possible timing for returning to stocks after a correction.
Why use it?
It helps evaluate whether a rebound after a decline has enough evidence to be treated as a potential recovery rather than a temporary bounce.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ftd-detector scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 10 executable files (scripts/fmp_client.py, scripts/ftd_detector.py, scripts/post_ftd_monitor.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

FTD Detector Skill

Purpose

Detect Follow-Through Day (FTD) signals that confirm a market bottom, using William O'Neil's proven methodology. Generates a quality score (0-100) with exposure guidance for re-entering the market after corrections.

Complementary to Market Top Detector:

  • Market Top Detector = defensive (detects distribution, rotation, deterioration)
  • FTD Detector = offensive (detects rally attempts, bottom confirmation)

When to Use This Skill

English:

  • User asks "Is the market bottoming?" or "Is it safe to buy again?"
  • User observes a market correction (3%+ decline) and wants re-entry timing
  • User asks about Follow-Through Days or rally attempts
  • User wants to assess if a recent bounce is sustainable
  • User asks about increasing equity exposure after a correction
  • Market Top Detector shows elevated risk and user wants bottom signals

Japanese:

  • 「底打ちした?」「買い戻して良い?」
  • 調整局面(3%以上の下落)からのエントリータイミング
  • フォロースルーデーやラリーアテンプトについて
  • 直近の反発が持続可能か評価したい
  • 調整後のエクスポージャー拡大の判断
  • Market Top Detectorが高リスク表示の後の底打ちシグナル確認

Difference from Market Top Detector

Aspect FTD Detector Market Top Detector
Focus Bottom confirmation (offensive) Top detection (defensive)
Trigger Market correction (3%+ decline) Market at/near highs
Signal Rally attempt → FTD → Re-entry Distribution → Deterioration → Exit
Score 0-100 FTD quality 0-100 top probability
Action When to increase exposure When to reduce exposure

Execution Workflow

Phase 1: Execute Python Script

Run the FTD detector script:

python3 skills/ftd-detector/scripts/ftd_detector.py --api-key $FMP_API_KEY

The script will:

  1. Fetch S&P 500 and QQQ historical data (60+ trading days) from FMP API
  2. Fetch current quotes for both indices
  3. Run dual-index state machine (correction → rally → FTD detection)
  4. Assess post-FTD health (distribution days, invalidation, power trend)
  5. Calculate quality score (0-100)
  6. Generate JSON and Markdown reports
