FAQs · How the platform works

Macro context at a glance. Use it to frame the day: risk-on vs risk-off, regional strength/weakness, and “what’s driving flows”.

• Best used as context before execution, not as a trigger.
• If markets are closed, treat it as a snapshot.

Price + key levels overlay. Designed to reduce “chart clutter” while keeping the levels that matter most: prior RTH range (pRTH), IB levels, and value area when available.

• Intraday (1m) is for session execution and level interaction.
• Daily is for context and regime checks.

The Order Flow tab shows session CVD (cumulative volume delta), key-level delta touches, and automated pattern hints for the symbol you are viewing (default follows the terminal).

• CVD is built by summing each bar’s delta from the open of the session through the latest RTH minute bar.
• Bar delta (estimated): each 1-minute bar splits total volume into buy vs sell using where the close sits inside that bar’s high–low range (not true bid/ask tape). That keeps the math internally consistent but it is not exchange order flow.
• Buy / sell % is the session share of estimated buy volume vs sell volume (same model as above).
• Res 1m / 5m buckets the chart: 1m for timing; 5m for a smoother line.
• Patterns can flag exhaustion, climax-like spikes, stop sweeps near levels you pass in (pRTH, IB, VA), and swing-style divergences between price pivots and CVD pivots.
• Level watch highlights the nearest structural level (pH, pL, IB, VA, POC) and short-window delta vs price when you are close to it.
• CVD audit (when shown) checks that the sum of bar deltas in the current chart window matches the last plotted CVD — a sanity check for the series you are looking at.

A fast options view for liquidity and strike areas of interest. Use it as confirmation/context.

Headlines are ranked by a relevance score (recency + keyword impact + sentiment magnitude). “Session sentiment” summarizes the NY session window (16:00 → 16:00 ET).

• High score = “relevant now”, not “tradable”.
• Sentiment is a lightweight model; treat it as a filter.

A calendar view to help you avoid surprise scheduled volatility (CPI, FOMC, jobs, etc.). Use it to plan reduced-risk windows and to anticipate volatility expansion into key levels.

A reference library of definitions and historical frequencies (not forecasts). Use it to set a baseline expectation for the day type.

Upcoming catalysts scanner. Useful for avoiding sudden volatility on holdings or correlated names/sectors.

Simple historical “how often did X happen?” queries over a chosen symbol and date range. Percentages are sample-dependent and not predictive.

Execution tracking and accountability. Helps you measure process quality over time (not just P&L).

pRTH is the prior regular trading hours range. Its High/Low (and midpoint) are used as structural reference levels for today.

IB (Initial Balance) is the first-hour range of the NY session (commonly 09:30–10:30 ET). It often acts as a “day map” for later expansion or rotation.

It’s a weighted confluence view: scenario context (gap/inside) + IB behavior + optional factors like VWAP position and Asia direction. “NO EDGE” means factors conflict enough that forcing direction is not warranted.

Session logic is aligned to America/New_York (ET).

No. It’s a decision support tool: structure + context + historical reference. Always use risk management and confirm with price behavior.

No. The terminal does not receive every trade tagged as buyer or seller at the exchange. It uses RTH 1-minute OHLCV and an estimated split of volume per bar, then cumulates that into CVD.

• Use divergences and pattern flags as context alongside price, levels, and your plan.
• If the CVD audit shows OK, the series is internally consistent for that window — not proof of true order flow.

First refresh the terminal. If the issue persists: check your connection, try again after a minute, and verify you’re logged in.

Most panels refresh automatically during the NY session, but cadence varies by module and can slow down outside RTH. Some endpoints (especially news) may be cached briefly to avoid rate limits and keep the UI responsive.

This usually happens when your session token is missing, expired, or invalid. The terminal redirects to Access to protect your account.

• If you just changed your password, log in again.
• If you keep getting redirected, clear site data for the domain and re-authenticate.

The Journal stores the trade details you enter (outcomes, tags, notes, risk labels, and account grouping) so you can review your process over time. Access is restricted to authenticated sessions. If you share a device or browser profile, always log out after use.
