Signal runs & scheduling

Signals refresh two ways: a scheduled daily run, and the Run now button on the Signals page.

The daily run

Every morning before the US market opens (12:00 UTC, 7 or 8 a.m. in New York, depending on daylight saving), SleeveFolio automatically starts a signal run for every active account. Each run reads your universe (the list of symbols you’ve chosen to trade) and active strategy, computes the four-factor ranking, scoring each symbol on price strength (momentum), steadiness (low volatility), cheapness (value), and profitability (quality), and replaces your previous signal set with the fresh one. Crypto pairs are scored on this same run: crypto markets trade around the clock, but coins get one fresh score a day, right alongside your stocks.

Run now

Available to every tier, any time. It only ever re-ranks. A manual run never places trades, so refreshing your signals is always safe. Two guards keep it sensible: an empty universe is refused outright (nothing to rank), and a short cooldown follows each completed run so back-to-back presses don’t recompute an already-fresh set. Press it again too soon and SleeveFolio tells you the set was just refreshed and to try again shortly.

What a run produces

A ranked signal set on the Signals page: symbol, composite score, factor breakdown, and the buy / hold / sell action. A run only ever produces this ranking. It does not trade. Whether anything trades on it is governed separately by the auto-execute switch; with it off, the set is advisory. With it on, SleeveFolio acts on the day’s ranking once, after the US market opens, deliberately decoupled from these signal refreshes so an order is never placed off-hours against a signal that could move by the next open.
