§ 07 · a section of the read

Methodology & receipts

Every figure names its source.

What it is

The appendix that is the product: how every number was derived, what we tested, and what failed.

How it's built

Every figure traces to a named public source and date. Methods are pre-registered; backtests are published, including the failures.

What you get

  • A source and date behind every figure in the read.
  • The pre-registrations and the code.
  • The four published predictive tests, all of which failed, and why we sell a read and not a forecast.

From the data

We pre-registered whether the music signal predicts demand and tested it four times. Every test failed, and we published each one. So Cadence is a descriptive read, not a forecast.

This is one section of a full Cadence read.
