Analyst’s summary
Jake Wujastyk is a trader who posts chart-based setups. His record is built from those posts. Most of what he says names an asset without committing to a direction; a smaller share of his claims carry a directional view, and only a few of those name a price level. None of his directional calls are about business outcomes. His directional calls are mostly single equities, with a small number of equity index and commodity calls. Across the whole record the names he calls most often are CL=F, GOOGL and USO.
How accurate is he?
He is accurate 36.9% of the time against a base rate of 44.4% for the stocks he calls, so he scores 7.5 points below it. Accurate means he hits or partially hits the hurdle in the direction his signal implies, inside the window he named or the calculated window determined from our algorithm; for a price target it means the target was reached inside the window, or half the stated move was. Of his 22 resolved price-target calls, 8 reached the target and 10 never got halfway.
How does he compare to just holding Bitcoin, and to the S&P 500?
If you had put $1 into Bitcoin on the day of his first crypto call in June 2026 and left it there until his last crypto call was settled, you would have $1.27. If you had put $1 into every one of his 4 crypto calls instead, buying when he posted and selling when each call was due, you would have $1.23; Bitcoin held on those same days made $1.27.
If you had put $1 into the S&P 500 on the day of his first equity call in May 2026 and left it there until his last equity call was settled, you would have $1.05. If you had put $1 into every one of his 94 equity calls instead, buying when he posted and selling when each call was due, you would have $1.00; the S&P 500 held on those same days made $1.05.
Taking profit early, at twice the hurdle (at the target, on a price-target call) with no stop-loss, turned $1 into $0.97. The base rate on the stocks he picks is $0.95: the same stocks, bought on random dates in the same period, held for the same lengths of time, with the same long and short sides.
Explainer on his accuracy against his return
Accuracy counts how often he was right; return counts how far the price went. He was right less often than chance, and a dollar compounds the path, not the average: his hits averaged +25.7% and his misses -21.3%. (* see the footnote below for a fuller explanation)
How does following his timing compare to the base rate of the stocks he chose?
A dollar following every one of his calls to the end of its window became $1.02 against a base rate of $0.95; with a stop at the hurdle and a take-profit at twice it (at the target, on a price-target call), $0.98. Over the last six months he scored 36.9% against a base rate of 44.4% on 104 calls.
What is the best holding period if we follow Jake?
7 days: a dollar following every call for 7 days became $1.25 against a base rate of $0.95, and no other plain hold does better. On tracking, his edge over the stocks is largest at 1 days, +0.8% against +0.1%, and at ninety days he is 11.7 points behind them.
Does he have any names where he has a particular edge?
On MSFT, USO, NOW his calls beat the stock's own 30-day move; on CL=F, the name he calls most, they beat it by 11.8 points; they trailed it on F and OKLO.
In our opinion, a follower should treat Jake Wujastyk as a source of chart-based ideas rather than as a timing signal. His calls on CL=F, USO and MSFT beat those stocks' own thirty-day moves, and his record is spread across many names, so those ideas are worth screening. But his accuracy sits below the stocks' own base rate, and because no peer universe was available his timing cannot be separated from the stocks he chose. A follower should not pay for his entry dates.
Notes
1 Right means the hurdle test. Every stock carries a hurdle, T, that depends on its class and on how long the call was given (the table on page 2): 5 percent for a single equity at ninety days, under half a percent at next close, eleven at a year; 13 percent for crypto at ninety days. A full hit is a move of at least twice T in the direction he called by the end of the window and counts 1.0; a partial hit is at least T and counts 0.8; a miss, and a flat outcome that moved less than T either way, count zero. A price-target call is a full hit when the target is reached inside the window, a partial at half the stated move and a miss otherwise; it has one reading, the touch, so a later fall does not change it and the hit rate is not a holding return. Every resolved call is scored and every one is in the denominator. At expiry reads the price once at the window's end; one-touch counts the same move if it happened at any point inside the window.
2 Base rate: for each call, over every window of the same length on the same stock across the record, from two years before his first call to the last price and leaving out the call's own window, the share that cleared the same hurdle in his direction, with a partial at 0.8 and everything else zero; built exactly as the hit rate is, then averaged over his calls. Lift is his rate minus it. The percentiles and the drift in Parts 2 and 3 use a narrower set, the 730 days before each call.
3 The percentile is where a call's return ranks among all windows of the same length in that stock's own past two years; the 50th is chance. The placebo band is what random posting dates on the same stocks produce; a reading inside it is indistinguishable from chance.
4 The dollar base rate: the same stocks, the same number of calls, the same long and short sides, bought on random dates; the median of 150 such runs. Each call is held to its own window, and a price-target call is sold at its target if that comes first, on his dates and on the random ones alike.
5 Win rate and return per call: a follower buying at the first close after each post and selling thirty days later, costs deducted; the share of calls that made money, and the average result.
6 Drawdown: the deepest fall of that follower's account from its peak.
7 A bracket is a take-profit and a stop-loss set in advance; here both are set in units of the call's own hurdle, and a price-target call takes its target as the take-profit, so a take-profit fill is a hit banked and a stop fill is a miss taken. It is a rule of ours, not part of his record, and it never feeds the alpha gate.
* Accuracy counts calls. Every call counts once, whatever the size of the move: a full hit is one, a partial is 0.8, a miss or a flat is zero. Twenty-eight of his 104 calls were full hits, thirteen partial, sixty-three were misses or flats. Random windows on the same stocks clear the hurdle more often than that, because stocks of this kind move the hurdle's distance inside the window about 36.9% of the time on their own. So by count he is right less often than chance. Return weighs calls by how far they moved. His twenty-eight hits averaged +25.7%, one of them, ETH, +53.9%. His forty-eight misses averaged -21.3%, and his fifteen flats were small. Add them up and the winners are worth +868 points against -1126 for the losers. He was right less often than random but by much more when he was right, and wrong by less when he was wrong, so a dollar that followed every call came out ahead even though most of the calls did not.
Summary of metrics
Integrity: 1220 posts were read, yielding 1188 claims, 206 directional calls and 104 resolved. (see section: the worked claim, Part 5, annex)
Information: scoring for accuracy by our rules, he is accurate 36.9% of the time, against a base rate of 44.4% for the same stocks, so he scores 7.5 points below it. On tracking his calls, his best horizon is one day, where his calls return +0.8% against +0.1%, an edge of 0.6 points. At the ninety-day horizon his calls return -4.8% on average, 11.7 points behind the stocks' own return of +7.0% over the same days. (see section: 1.3, 1.18, 2.19)
Robustness: the record spans 4 months, so there is no full year to compare; over the last six months he scored 36.9% against a base rate of 44.4% on 104 calls; the record holds 104 resolved calls on 56 stocks. (see section: 1.6, 1.9, 5.3, 5.4)
Concentration: his calls beat the stock's own 30-day move on MSFT, USO, NOW; on CL=F, the name he calls most, they beat it by 11.8 points; they trailed it on F and OKLO. (see section: 2.8)
Response profile: if we follow all of Jake's calls, the holding period most profitable is 7 days. One dollar following every call for 7 days became $1.25 against a base rate of $0.95. There is no benefit to holding his calls for one day, 30 days or each call's own window. (see section: 1.3, 2.13, 2.14b)
Distribution: one call is worth -3.3% on average, after costs; the middle half of his calls end between -18.2% and +8.1%, and 50.0% of them end positive. Following every call to the end of its window turned one dollar into $1.02 against a base rate of $0.95, and the account fell 23.0% from its peak along the way. (see section: 2.13 to 2.16)

selling each call as soon as it is up twice its hurdle, no stop-loss: 56.7% of calls win against 50.0% on a plain hold to the window, but one dollar ends at $0.97 against $1.02: capping the winners costs more than it saves
his average return against the stocks' own, at the horizons he uses most (ten or more calls); the difference is his edge in points
Following Jake Wujastyk's calls from the first close at or after each post and holding each call to the end of its own window, one dollar became $1.02 over 139 days in market, against just holding the S&P 500 for his equity calls ($1.00 following those calls against $1.05 held) and Bitcoin for his crypto calls ($1.23 following those calls against $1.27 held), and against holding the same stocks Jake chooses on random dates, which would have produced $0.95.
