A WRITTEN READ, EVERY SESSION

Know what moved, why it reaches you, and what would prove the read wrong.

Uncertainty is what makes volatility expensive, not the volatility. Every session opens with a written read: what moved across assets and how it reaches equities, the levels where dealer hedging changes the market's behaviour, and the named triggers that would invalidate the whole thing. Computed from live option chains and fifteen years of walk-forward measurement, with the tests that went against us published alongside.

TODAY'S READ

This is the product, not a screenshot of it.

Composed minutes ago from the same option chains and cross-asset feed the dashboard reads. Deliberately partial: one instrument of 1, one mechanism note of 2, and none of the 3 named triggers.

The read

Start with the tape: Crude down 1.50%, Bitcoin up 1.21% and 10-year yield down 6 basis points to 5.24%. Only 2 instruments outside equities is carrying a clear risk signal right now, 10-year yield, Bitcoin. That is not enough to call the configuration one way or the other, so this is a note about one instrument rather than a read on the tape. The levels below are doing more work today.

Crude down 1.50%. Energy is the one input that prices in two directions at once (as a growth signal and as a cost) which is why a move this size turns up in places that have nothing to do with oil. Which of the two the market is reading is usually visible in whether yields move with it or against it.

The nearest level
QQQ
QQQ at 742.03 is 1.59% below the gamma flip at 754, 12 points.

Below the flip, hedging leans WITH the move, dealers sell into weakness and buy into strength, which extends the range. Moves travel further than they look like they should.

Kills it That read dies on an accepted reclaim of 754.

The rest of this read (every instrument, the mechanism notes, the week's calendar, the exhaustion state with its measured record, and the triggers that would change it) is on the dashboard. Read the whole thing →

LIVE PREVIEW

6 inputs, and whether they agree.

The panel counts agreement. It does not issue a verdict, because the confluence score underneath it was walked forward over 34,297 bars and established no directional edge, six of its ten components carry fifteen years of history, and the option-derived remainder is unmeasured rather than disproven. Knowing the reads line up, or that they do not, is the useful part.

FAQ

Common questions.

They are two different things. The free tier needs no credit card and does not expire. It gives you the market overview, live Fibonacci levels, the Succession grid, Quantitative Exhaustion and the alert feed, for as long as you want them. The 7-day Pro trial unlocks everything else (dealer gamma, the signal engine, the pre-market brief, setups and the journal), and it does take a card, because it becomes a paid subscription on day 8 unless you cancel. Nothing is charged during the seven days, and cancelling takes one click from the account page.
Professional-grade financial data providers for real-time options chain data (Tradier), intraday price data, and historical OHLCV data going back 10+ years. VIX comes directly from CBOE via market data feeds. All data refreshed every 60 seconds during market hours.
The conviction score (0-10) fuses 6 independent signals (confluence score, GEX environment, dark flow bias, volatility regime, HMM state and market breadth) and counts how many of them currently agree. It measures agreement, not accuracy. We measured the confluence score it is built on walk-forward over 34,297 bars and established no directional edge; we publish that result, and the eight others we ran on our own signals, on the measurements page rather than around it.
Every weekday morning at 5:30 AM ET, our system generates a full intelligence brief and emails it to all Pro subscribers. Covers: market regime & setup, key GEX levels, dark flow bias, VIX playbook, macro calendar events, and a multi-factor setup checklist. Also available live at /premarket.
