Signals

A signal is a published trade call on one prediction market, held for up to seven days from publish or until the market resolves. The entry fields freeze at publish; everything else — marks, P/L, status — updates live.

Two signal products

• WTI-OIL — the daily WTI crude-oil signal with live venue marks and episode context. The perpetuals route returns the WTI signal in standard signal-list format without live marks. Use Asset search for other underlyings.
• Prediction markets — the published feed, plus one featured pick.

Timestamps

A signal has a publication time; the forecast under it has its own update time. The window parameter filters on forecast updates. The CLI's quotient signals --today --timezone America/New_York filters on publication time and prints the timezone it used.

Publication status

On market-search rows, has_published_signal reports whether Q has ever published a signal on that market. Use it for publication status; signal_count is a legacy field.

Signal responses can carry the shared relationships envelope described in How Q works. Fields, parameters, and error codes are in the endpoint reference.
