## 2. Data Harvesting Component (Drill-Down Architecture)

### 2.1 Hierarchical Data Collection Strategy

The system implements a **5-Level Drill-Down Model** allowing users to progressively narrow information scope:

#### Level 1: Macro Environment Harvester
- **Economic Calendar Data**: Central bank decisions, GDP releases, employment reports
- **Market Sentiment Indices**: VIX, put/call ratios, margin debt levels
- **Cross-Asset Correlations**: Inter-market analysis (equities vs. bonds vs. commodities)
- **Geopolitical Risk Scanners**: News sentiment analysis, event detection

#### Level 2: Sector/Asset Class Intelligence
- **Industry Rotation Metrics**: Sector momentum, relative strength vs. benchmarks
- **Commodity Chain Analysis**: For forex (e.g., AUD/USD vs. commodity prices)
- **ETF Flow Analysis**: Capital movement into sector ETFs as leading indicators

#### Level 3: Instrument-Specific Fundamental Harvester
- **Corporate Financials**: P/E, P/B, ROE, debt/equity, cash flow (quarterly/annual)
- **Earnings Calendar & Surprises**: Whisper numbers, guidance revisions
- **Insider Activity**: Form 4 filings, institutional ownership changes
- **Analyst Sentiment**: Rating changes, price target revisions, consensus trends

#### Level 4: Technical Microstructure Harvester
- **Price Action Data**: OHLCV at multiple timeframes (1min to monthly)
- **Market Depth**: Level 2 order book (60 levels for US stocks, 40 for futures)
- **Tick Data**: Time & sales, bid-ask spread dynamics
- **Volume Profile**: Point of Control (POC), Value Area High/Low

#### Level 5: Alternative Data Sources (Optional Expansion)
- **Social Media Sentiment**: Reddit, Twitter sentiment scoring
- **Satellite/IoT Data**: Parking lot counts, shipping traffic (for relevant equities)

### 2.2 Data Collection Schema

```json
{
  "harvest_config": {
    "instrument": {
      "symbol": "AAPL",
      "asset_class": "equity",
      "market": "US",
      "currency": "USD"
    },
    "drill_down_levels": [1, 3, 4],
    "timeframes": {
      "trading": "intraday",

      "fundamental": "daily",
      "technical": "real_time",
      "macro": "event_driven"
    }
  }
}
```

## 3. Analysis Engine Design

### 3.1 Fundamental Analysis Module (FAM)

**Components:**
- **Valuation Engine**: Calculates fair value using DCF, relative valuation (comparable multiples)
- **Quality Scoring**: Piotroski F-Score, Altman Z-Score, Beneish M-Score
- **Growth Trajectory**: Revenue/EPS CAGR, momentum acceleration detection
- **Macro Sensitivity**: Beta calculation, factor exposure (value, growth, momentum factors)

**Output Schema:**
```json
{
  "fundamental_score": {
    "composite_value": 0.72,
    "confidence": 0.85,
    "sub_scores": {
      "valuation": 0.65,
      "quality": 0.88,
      "growth": 0.70,
      "financial_health": 0.75
    },
    "key_metrics": {
      "pe_percentile": 25,
      "pb_percentile": 30,
      "roe_trend": "improving",
      "debt_trend": "stable"
    }
  }
}
```

### 3.2 Technical Analysis Module (TAM)

**Indicator Library Categories:**

**Trend Indicators:**
- Moving Average systems (SMA, EMA, WMA with adaptive periods)
- ADX (Average Directional Index) for trend strength
- Parabolic SAR, Ichimoku Cloud

**Momentum Indicators:**
- RSI (Relative Strength Index) with divergence detection
- MACD with histogram analysis
- Stochastic Oscillator (fast/slow)
- Rate of Change (ROC), Momentum

**Volatility Indicators:**
- Bollinger Bands (with %B indicator)
- ATR (Average True Range) for stop-loss calculation
- Keltner Channels, Donchian Channels

**Volume Indicators:**
- OBV (On-Balance Volume)
- Volume Profile (fixed range, session-based)
- VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) with standard deviations
- Money Flow Index (MFI)

**Pattern Recognition:**
- Candlestick patterns (Engulfing, Doji, Morning Star, etc.)
- Chart patterns (Head & Shoulders, Triangles, Flags)
- Harmonic patterns (Gartley, Butterfly)

### 3.3 Probabilistic Inference Engine

**Bayesian Scoring System:**
Combines multiple indicators into probability distributions:

```
P(Trend Up | Data) = P(Data | Trend Up) * P(Trend Up) / P(Data)
```

Where:
- Prior probabilities derived from historical backtests
- Likelihood functions updated based on real-time indicator confluence
- Posterior probabilities drive trading signals

**Confluence Scoring:**
- **Signal Agreement**: Weighted average of confirming indicators
- **Timeframe Alignment**: Higher weight when daily, hourly, and 15m trends align
- **Divergence Detection**: Reduce probability when price/indicator divergence occurs

- Pre-computed indicator values for common timeframes

This architecture provides a robust, flexible foundation for systematic trading while maintaining the agility to adapt to changing market conditions and new information sources. The JSON-based strategy configuration ensures transparency and auditability, while the drill-down approach makes complex quantitative analysis accessible to users with varying levels of expertise.
