Reading the signal

Seven patterns, reconstructed on synthetic data: how an analyst tells a manipulated market from a clean one.

Every dataset on this page is generated, not observed. Nothing here reads a live market, and nothing here is a surveillance tool. It exists to trace, step by step, what a compliance analyst actually looks at when a pattern is flagged for review: the order-book mechanics of behavior-based manipulation, and the disclosure mechanics of information-based manipulation.

On method: every series below is synthetic, seeded, and labeled in advance. It shows how the analysis is done, not whether a real case is proven. Not advice.
