What is Foreshadow AI?
Foreshadow AI is an advanced stock signal and analysis platform, enhanced by artificial intelligence. We scan 520+ U.S. equities across the Dow 30, Nasdaq-100, and S&P 500 to provide real-time trading signals, AI analyst insights, and confidence scores to help traders make more informed decisions.
How does Foreshadow AI generate signals?
Our system uses proprietary algorithms that combine technical indicators, momentum analysis, crossovers (golden/death/etc), and AI-driven pattern recognition. Each signal is assigned a confidence score (≥60%) to highlight higher-probability opportunities.
Who is Foreshadow AI designed for?
We serve a wide range of traders — from beginners who want clear daily insights to active retail traders who need intraday data, up to professional and institutional-level traders requiring real-time scans every 5 minutes.
What makes Foreshadow AI different from other signal services?
Unlike many signal providers, Foreshadow AI combines breadth (520+ stocks), frequency (daily, hourly, 5-min scans), in-depth trend reversal methodology, and AI analyst commentary. Our goal isn’t to “tell you what to buy” but to equip you with institutional-grade intelligence you can use in your strategy.
Do you cover cryptocurrencies or just stocks?
Currently, Foreshadow AI focuses exclusively on U.S. equities — Dow 30, Nasdaq-100, and S&P 500 stocks. Crypto coverage may be added later.
What makes Foreshadow AI “institutional-grade”?
We ingest market bars every 5 minutes, compute technical signals deterministically, and deliver them in real-time at the same frequency hedge-fund tools use.
Do I need trading experience to use this?
Our signals are designed to be clear and actionable for both beginners and advanced traders, but the final trading decision involves your own personal risk assessment and analysis.
What plans do you offer?
We offer three tiers:
Basic (from $20/mo): Daily signals after market close.
Pro (from $60/mo): Intraday hourly scans + community access.
Elite (from $89/mo): Institutional-grade, 5-minute real-time scans, 24/7 AI Analyst support, and premium community access.
Do you offer a free trial?
Currently, we do not offer a free trial, but we provide sample signals and insights in our public community channels. This gives potential members a clear idea of the quality and depth of our analysis before subscribing.
Do you offer discounts for annual subscriptions?
Yes. Annual subscribers can save up to 35% compared to monthly pricing.
Why is the Elite plan more expensive?
The Elite plan provides institutional-grade coverage, with over 40,000 scans per day, real-time AI analyst assistance, and priority Discord access. This level of depth and frequency is built for active traders and professionals who need fast, reliable intelligence.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time.
Do you offer refunds?
We do not typically issue refunds after a subscription starts, but if you encounter any issues, our support team will work with you to resolve them.
Why would I choose Pro over Elite?
Pro is ideal if hourly intraday scans are enough. Elite is built for serious traders who need real-time precision.
Can I pause my subscription?
Subscriptions can be canceled at any time, and you can resubscribe at a later date.
How often are signals updated?
Basic: Once daily after market close.
Pro: Hourly, 10AM–4PM ET.
Elite: Every 5 minutes, 9:35AM–4PM ET.
How many signals will I get each day?
It varies with market conditions. Some days may trigger more alerts; quieter days may produce fewer signals. Elite subscribers will receive the most signals due to the frequency of scans. We value quality over quantity.
What stocks do you cover?
We cover the Dow 30, Nasdaq-100, and S&P 500, representing 520+ of the most traded U.S. equities.
Do you provide buy/sell recommendations?
No. We provide signals based on a proprietary confidence score algorithm and AI analyst insights. It’s up to each trader to decide how to use this information in their strategy.
What is a confidence score?
Each signal includes a probability rating (≥60%) based on our proprietary algorithm. The higher the score, the stronger the probability of that signal’s reliability.
Do all signals come with a confidence score?
Yes. Every BUY/SELL signal is delivered with a confidence percentage (≥60%).
What does NEUTRAL mean in the signals?
NEUTRAL indicates the system sees no strong bias in price action at that moment. It helps you avoid over-trading.
Are signals ever wrong?
Yes. No system can predict markets perfectly. Confidence scores highlight the probability, not a guarantee.
How are the signals calculated?
We use EMAs, SMAs, volume spikes, golden/death crosses, and a proprietary weighted fusion model — no guessing.
Do you support options trading?
Our signals are stock-based, but many traders use them to inform options strategies (calls, puts, spreads). We do not provide options-specific alerts.
Can I request analysis of a stock not covered?
Currently, our focus is on 520+ major U.S. equities. Additional coverage may be introduced in future updates.
Do you provide backtesting results?
Yes. We showcase historical signal accuracy and backtested performance data to ensure transparency and credibility.

Subscribers receive alerts in real-time via Discord and Telegram, ensuring minimal lag between market movement and notification.

Do I need to pay for Telegram?
No. Telegram is free to use.

Pro and Elite members can toggle daily, hourly, or 5-minute signals to reduce noise.
What happens if I miss a Telegram alert?

Why should I join the free Discord?

Do I need to be a subscriber to use Discord?
No. Anyone can join the free community. Subscribers get private channels with premium discussions.
What’s the benefit of Elite Discord access?
Elite members gain access to private rooms where you can discuss trading practices in relation to signals received, and also have first look at upcoming features.
Do you moderate the Discord?
Yes. Moderators ensure respectful, spam-free discussions.
Can the website chat bot tell me about individual stocks?
No. The website bot is not the AI Analyst. Subscribers gain access to the AI Analyst bot that can answer stock-specific questions.
What does the AI Analyst actually do?
It explains signals, provides real-time context, and answers ticker-specific queries for subscribed users. All of our covered stocks have a confidence score and BUY/SELL/NEUTRAL rating that you can inquire about 24/7 on any plan, but the higher plans provide AI analysis based on more recent data to provide the highest level of accuracy. Though if a Basic subscriber makes an inquiry immediately after a scan timeframe of their tier it will be equally real-time but in reference to the daily chart, meaning that their trade entry timing is more suited for long term or swing trading than intraday trading.
Will the AI Analyst place trades for me?
No. It only provides analysis. You must place trades through your broker.
Does the AI Analyst predict prices?
It does not make predictions. It interprets technical signals and explains likely scenarios based on data.
Do all subscribers get AI Analyst access?
Yes. All tiers include 24/7 AI Analyst Q&A
What platforms do you support?
Signals are delivered through Telegram, with some also occasionally being delivered for free on Discord.
Do I need to install software?
Not if you already have Telegram. Foreshadow AI is fully cloud-based. You just need internet access on phone or desktop.
Can I use Foreshadow AI on mobile?
Yes. Our signals and alerts are optimized for mobile via Discord and Telegram, making them easy to follow on the go. Both can also be used on desktop PC.
What time zone are signals based on?
All scans and signals follow Eastern Time (ET), aligned with U.S. market hours.
Do you offer 24/7 support?
Yes. Our website AI assistant chatbot can handle the majority of your inquiries, or you can reach out to us through email. Our AI Analyst is also available 24/7.
Is Foreshadow AI financial advice?
