merge the reports into events as they form. You get an alert with our call, and we check every call against the
price.

We check the most-watched sources about once a minute and the rest every few minutes.
From a report to a call, in five steps.
Every article is read in its original language, as soon as we find it.
We note which commodities it touches, whether it brings a new fact or repeats an old one, which way it pushes the price, how hard and how soon. When the effect is indirect, we write out the chain from cause to price.
Reports about the same story merge into one event. It is forming on the first report, corroborated when a second source agrees, and confirmed when one of the most-watched sources carries it.
Once a second source backs the event, you get an alert with our call on each commodity it moves: the direction, the horizon and the move it needs.
The call is written once and never edited. We check it at the close after one day, after three days and at the end of its horizon, and record it as right, wrong or flat.
