Beginner 7 min read Updated 2026-04-29

What You Will Learn

  • Create an account and find the main workspace.
  • Build a Context Analysis from exact trading filters.
  • Read how many matching historical examples FILTRIX found.
  • Save useful contexts and test execution rules.

Before You Start

  • A ticker or setup idea you want to validate.
  • A FILTRIX account. Free accounts can learn the workflow with basic limits.
  • A clear question, such as whether similar alerts historically closed green.
01

Create an account or log in

Open FILTRIX and sign in. If this is your first visit, create a free account first. You do not need to configure anything advanced before running your first analysis.

Action: Register with email/password or use Google sign-in.

Open Context Analysis

After login, start from the Home page or the left navigation. Context Analysis is where you describe the setup you want to validate against historical Trade-Ideas data.

Action: Choose New Context or select Context from the app navigation.

Build the exact setup

Start with a specific question, then turn it into filters. Good filters describe the actual setup: ticker or sector, gap size, relative volume, float, price, or other conditions that were present when the alert fired.

Action: Add filters, choose the outcome, set the threshold, and optionally set a date range.

04

Run your first analysis

Click Run Analysis and let FILTRIX compare your setup against historical records. When the run finishes, you will see whether similar setups tended to close green or red.

Action: Click Run Analysis and wait until the result summary appears.

Read the result before you trust the setup

Start with how many matching historical examples FILTRIX found. Then look at where those days closed: above your target range, below it, or inside it. A useful result has enough examples to study further, but it is still not a guarantee for the next alert.

Action: Check the matching example count, the above/below/in-range split, and the preview rows.

06

Save the context

Save the context when the filters are clear and the result is worth revisiting. Saved contexts let you return to the same setup later and use it inside Execution Analysis.

Action: Give the analysis a clear name and click Save Analysis.

Test execution on the saved context

Context Analysis tells you whether the setup has historical support. Execution Analysis tests how a specific entry and exit rule would have behaved on the matching trades.

Action: Open Execution Analysis, choose the saved context, select a strategy, and run the simulation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Do not treat a tiny sample as proof of edge.
  • Do not replace exact filters with a loose story about the setup.
  • Do not skip execution testing when the context result looks promising.
  • Do not save every experiment. Save only setups you can explain and reuse.
