Help & FAQ
The most important questions explained briefly. Learn more about the people behind them under About the lenses.
What is the Burry or EU Score?
Two metrics from 0 (calm) to 100 (crisis). The Burry Score measures crisis pressure in the US markets, the EU Score in Europe/Germany. The higher it is, the greater the risk of a downturn — and the more attractive short positions become.
What do I see on "Burry vs. EU lens"?
Both scores side by side with their individual components (e.g. banks, real estate, sovereign bonds) and what each lens would currently short or long. At a glance you can see where the two approaches see danger.
How does the sandbox portfolio work?
You start with virtual money ($100,000) and can "follow" a lens's suggestions with one click, or open long/short positions yourself at live prices. It's a pure simulation — no real money, no real broker. Ideal for practicing risk-free.
What is the ML forecast?
A machine-learning model estimates from historical patterns where crisis pressure could head in the short term and detects the current market regime (calm/tense/crisis). It is a probability estimate, not a guarantee.
What are short signals?
Concrete short candidates that the calculation rates as particularly weak — including entry, stop and catalyst. This level of detail is part of the PRO plans.
What do the paid plans offer?
Free shows the current scores and the sandbox. PRO unlocks history, component details and short signals; ELITE adds ML forecasts, options flow and portfolio tracking. Details under "Pricing".
Is this investment advice?
No. SHORT RADAR provides model-based assessments from two crisis lenses — not personalized recommendations. Every investment decision is yours to make; all markets carry risk.
The tiles are too brief / too detailed for me.
In the top right you can switch the explanation mode: "Beginner" shows a full write-up for each tile, "Standard" only info tooltips, "Pro" hides explanations.
