Answers for using Shared Flow day to day

Start on the dashboard. It gives you the live trade desk, grouped workspaces, market bias, alerts, event context, and quick links to the deeper pages.

Decision Support is the pre-trade review area. It ranks markets, builds trade tickets, compares strategies, checks news timing, checks portfolio overlap, and reviews execution readiness.

Run Analysis is the guided agent workbench. Use it when you want to run a specific task like Market Snapshot, Risk Evaluation, Strategy Proposal, Strategy Sweep, or Event Study Analysis.

It takes a current macro, earnings, or crypto event, compares it with similar historical event templates, scores the closest matches, and returns likely forex, stock, and crypto impact with risk controls.

No. The current agents are advisory or gated. They can propose, analyze, compare, veto, and review, but execution remains deterministic and must stay behind safety checks.

Specialized agents are easier to verify. Market data, event analysis, risk, strategy research, execution readiness, and post-trade review each have a different job and can be checked independently.

Read the summary first, then check the closest comparable event, cross-asset impact, preferred action, and risk controls. Treat weak similarity or high event risk as a reason to wait or reduce size.

Use Dashboard to find the setup, Decision Support to compare and check timing, Run Analysis for a deeper agent task, then review risk controls before doing anything outside the app.

Buy readiness cards use green and sell readiness cards use red. The readiness status still matters, but the main visual direction now follows the trade side.

Avoid or wait when event risk is high, spreads are wide, liquidity is thin, strategies disagree, correlation exposure is duplicated, or the readiness checklist says Wait.

A trade ticket summarizes the proposed side, entry zone, stop, targets, risk/reward, position risk note, and invalidation condition so the setup can be reviewed quickly.

Forex prices come from OANDA — the mid of the broker's own bid and ask on a practice account, which is a price you could deal on rather than a reference estimate. Crypto comes from Coinbase. Stocks, gold, oil, and the dollar index come from Yahoo Finance. If a broker quote is missing or fails a sanity check (a crossed book or an absurd spread), the price falls back to a daily reference feed and is labelled Delayed rather than Live.

Every market row carries its own label. Live means the quote arrived within its feed's normal window; Delayed means it is older but still within what that feed's schedule can explain; Illustrative means it is placeholder data and nothing was measured. The data receipt at the bottom of this page counts the whole set at once, so you can see how much of the desk is actually reporting right now.

Some decision-support panels use the current dashboard feed and deterministic estimates rather than broker-grade live execution data. They are useful for review, not final order routing.

Credits price agent tasks in the catalog. Lightweight tasks cost fewer credits, while heavier analysis like strategy sweeps or event studies costs more.

Yes. Run Analysis keeps advanced JSON available for custom inputs, but the guided controls should cover the common workflow first.

No. The application is a decision-support and research tool. It does not replace your own judgment, risk controls, or broker-side execution checks.
