Market State
The current aggregate description of the monitored U.S. securities universe. Use it as context for what you see in individual symbols.
SEEDSTREAM
Understanding SeedStream
WHAT THE INFORMATION GIVES YOU
A structured view of what the market is doing now.
SeedStream organizes live market evidence into a consistent language of current condition, participation, persistence, change and freshness. It gives you another layer of awareness to use inside your own process. It does not tell you what trade to make.
MARKET AWARENESS
Start with the condition around everything else.
Participation
How much of the eligible universe currently contributes sufficient live evidence. Participation tells you about observation coverage—not confidence or expected return.
Quality & Freshness
LIVE, WARMING UP, STALE, UNAVAILABLE and MARKET CLOSED tell you whether a current observation can responsibly be presented as current.
SYMBOL AWARENESS
Know the current condition—and how it arrived there.
Current State
A consistent description of the symbol’s present condition.
State Age
How long the current published condition has persisted.
Transition Timeline
The sequence of user-visible state changes during the session. It lets you see more than the latest label.
FAST LIFECYCLE
Standard is the state. FAST is the lifecycle inside the state.
Standard reports the accepted one-minute developmental state. FAST adds a native 15-second lifecycle observation inside that Standard state. The user can view the same FAST observations at 15-second, 30-second, or 1-minute presentation lenses. The 30-second and 1-minute lenses group observations; they do not calculate, vote, average, or manufacture a new FAST state.
RESEARCH
Science turns observation into published evidence.
SeedStream Science publishes versioned research with a stated population, period, measurement, result, validation class, limitations and source authority. The point is not to ask you to trust an unexplained label. The product shows what it found and the boundaries of what that finding can support.
USING THE AWARENESS
Different users can choose the SeedStream surface that fits their work.
Use the live Market view for context, Symbols Standard for the accepted one-minute symbol state, and FAST when the 15-second lifecycle is useful to your process.
Symbols Standard keeps the current one-minute state, state age, freshness and transition history in one place.
Symbols Standard can sit beside an existing rules-based process as a separate reported market-state layer.
SeedStream Science publishes versioned evidence, while Symbols Standard provides the current elected-symbol state surface.
The free Market view reports the current aggregate state and participation. Science adds the research archive behind the broader observation program.
PUBLIC INTERPRETATION BOUNDARY
SeedStream explains what an output means, its freshness, context and published evidence. Alcoden’s internal derivation and proprietary research machinery are not required to use the information and are not published on user surfaces.
ALCODEN RESEARCH STANDARDS
Truth state is part of the product.
Freshness before appearance
When current evidence is insufficient, SeedStream can publish WARMING UP, STALE, UNAVAILABLE or MARKET CLOSED rather than preserve a stale answer for visual continuity.
Source-bound publication
Empirical Science releases require a stated population, period, observation unit, measurement, result, validation class, limitations and source authority before publication.
Versioned correction
Definitions and research should be versioned so a correction does not silently rewrite the historical record.
INTERPRETATION INDEX
The language on the screen.
STRONG CONTINUE
The current condition remains firmly established. Treat it as context about persistence, not a guarantee of what happens next.
LEAN CONTINUE
The current condition continues, but with less strength or agreement than a Strong Continue state.
BALANCED HOLD
Current evidence supports a more balanced or holding condition rather than a strong continuation or return.
LEAN RETURN
The observed condition is shifting back toward a prior or opposing condition, but not with the strength of Strong Return.
STRONG RETURN
The observed condition shows a firmly established return relative to the prior condition.
PARTICIPATION
The share of the eligible monitored universe currently contributing sufficient live evidence. Participation is coverage—not confidence or return probability.
STATE AGE
How long the currently published symbol condition has persisted.
QUALITY
Whether the displayed information is current and publishable. Examples include LIVE, WARMING UP, STALE, UNAVAILABLE and MARKET CLOSED.
FAST CONDITION
The current SeedStream FAST lifecycle phase observed inside the symbol’s Standard one-minute state.
