Reading Hunt and Cash Hunt results

Who this is for

You already opened Hunt or Cash Hunt and want a plain-language map of what you are looking at—not a promise of outcomes, not tax or suitability advice.

What these screens are — and are not

• Are: ranked ideas and sizing hints that respect portfolio risk settings and TRINITY’s analysis pipeline at run time.
• Are not: guaranteed fills, personalized recommendations, or a substitute for your broker’s order screen.

Fields you often see on a card

Exact labels vary by build, but these recur:

Element	Plain meaning	What it is not
Reasoning / rationale	Short text tying the idea to stage, signals, diversification, or weak-line context.	A full investment thesis or research note.
Stage / confidence	The same ATHENA-style language as symbol pages, as of the snapshot Hunt used.	Proof the trade will work; confidence is model consistency, not profit odds.
Entry / stop / target (when shown)	Planning anchors from technical context.	Promises that price will respect those levels.
Suggested shares (whole shares)	Often truncated to whole shares for broker realism; can be zero after rounding and caps.	A fractional or “exact optimal” size from a continuous model.
Portfolio % or fraction of equity	Rough weight if you took the line at suggested size—subject to rounding and your edits.	A mandate to hold exactly that weight.
Risk fields (e.g. amount or % at risk)	Summaries when the product shows them—aligned to how the run computed line risk.	Your firm’s or regulator’s official risk disclosure.
Pagination / “more results”	There may be additional ranked names on the next page.	“Only these tickers exist.”

Cash Hunt specifics

• Deployable cash is not always the same as “cash shown on my brokerage app.” TRINITY applies a cash buffer (on the order of ~10% of total capital in the portfolio model) before sizing new buys—see Hunt, Cash Hunt, and optimization.
• Ideas are new positions (not 1-for-1 swaps). If you expected a replace workflow, switch to Hunt in replace mode.

Why a symbol never appears

• Already in your book or still listed in allocation history (including some closed lines) → often excluded from “new” ideas by design.
• Filtered out by risk settings, concentration, or automation policy (when applicable).
• Outside the analyzed universe for that run—not every listed stock is eligible on every pass.

When results disagree with the symbol page

Timestamps and modes differ; walk When your symbol page and Hunt disagree.
