Inside day flag

What it is

Inside day flag — registry key screener_inside_day.

Per-ticker inside-day pattern flag (0 or 1). An inside day occurs when today’s high <= prior day’s high AND today’s low >= prior day’s low — a range contraction signal often preceding a directional breakout. Stored in screener_features_daily. Feeds archetype scorers (A4 coiling).

Source

Source module: screener
Data source: computed

Derived metric — produced inside the platform (app/sources/screener.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

1 if today_high <= prev_high AND today_low >= prev_low, else 0. NULL when fewer than 2 rows or high/low data is missing.

Where it surfaces

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.
