Cascade active count

What it is

Cascade active count — registry key cascade_active_count.

Transmission-cascade tracker diagnostic (see app/signals/cascade.py); state value, not a classifier band.

Source

Source module: capture
Data source: computed

Derived metric — produced inside the platform (app/signals/capture.py or equivalent) rather than fetched as a raw upstream value. See the How it's computed section below for the formula.

How it’s computed

Count of cascade triggers currently firing (0–4). Companion to cascade_stage.

Where it surfaces

• API field: signals.cascade_active_count on GET /api/v1/signals/latest
• Surface: daily_signals row (daily-cadence persistence)
• Surface: /signals/history time series
• Surface: /signals/sparklines (UI sparklines)

Health-score / alignment role

Data carrier — no implication, no health-score contribution.

Persisted for downstream consumers (sparklines, base-rate matcher, calibration substrate) but does not classify into BULLISH / NEUTRAL / BEARISH and does not contribute to the 0-100 health score.
