Understanding Seasonality

What is seasonality?

Recurring patterns by month, quarter, weekday, or calendar day. Not guarantees, but helpful context when framing trades.

How to interpret the charts

Heatmaps: Average returns for each bucket — intensity shows magnitude.
Summary stats: Win rate, average gain/loss, and dispersion metrics.
Annual paths: Compare the current year vs. past analogs.

Practical applications

Time entries around historical tailwinds/headwinds.
Spot when current action deviates from “normal.”
Layer seasonal context onto technical or fundamental setups.
