Trace - AI Analysis

Trace provides AI-powered explanations for why signals are bullish or bearish.

Overview​

While Volt tells you what the signal is, Trace explains why. Powered by advanced AI, Trace analyzes multiple factors and presents insights in plain language.

How Trace Works​

When you click a signal in Volt, Trace:

  1. Gathers context - Price history, volume, market conditions
  2. Analyzes factors - Technical, fundamental, and sentiment data

  4. Identifies risks - Potential downside scenarios

Reading Trace Analysis​

Confidence Context​

Trace explains why confidence is high or low:

"85% confidence driven by strong momentum across multiple timeframes, confirmed by rising volume and institutional accumulation patterns."

SMC Integration​

When SMC indicators are present:

"Price is approaching a bullish order block at $175.50, coinciding with an unfilled fair value gap. Institutional buyers likely to defend this zone."

Timeframe Alignment​

Multi-timeframe analysis:

"Bullish signals align across 1h, 4h, and daily timeframes, suggesting strong trend continuation rather than a short-term bounce."

Asking Follow-Up Questions​

Trace supports conversational follow-ups:

Example Questions​

  • "What's the strongest bullish factor?"
  • "What could invalidate this signal?"
  • "How does this compare to similar setups?"
  • "What's the risk/reward ratio?"

Getting Better Answers​

Be specific:

  • ❌ "Is this good?"
  • ✅ "What price level would invalidate the bullish thesis?"

Best Practices​

1. Read the Full Analysis​

Don't just skim - understand the reasoning.

2. Check Risk Factors​

Always review potential downsides, not just bullish points.

3. Ask Follow-Ups​

Use the conversational feature to dig deeper on unclear points.

4. Compare Multiple Signals​

Analyze several signals to understand patterns in the model's reasoning.

5. Use for Learning​

Even if you don't trade, use Trace to improve your market understanding.

Trace + SMC​

For Pro users, Trace integrates SMC concepts:

Order Block Analysis​

"The daily order block at $145.20-$146.80 represents the last institutional buying zone before the recent rally. Expect support if price retraces."

Fair Value Gap Analysis​

"An unfilled FVG exists between $152.30-$154.10. Price often returns to fill these inefficiencies before continuing the trend."

Liquidity Analysis​

"Significant stop losses clustered below $140. A sweep of this liquidity could trigger a reversal - watch for rejection candles."

Common Questions​

Why does analysis sometimes conflict with the signal?​

Analysis presents multiple perspectives. A BUY signal might mention bearish risks - that's balanced analysis, not contradiction.

Can I save analyses?​

Currently, analyses are generated on-demand. Add stocks to your watchlist to easily re-analyze them.

How current is the analysis?​

Analysis uses real-time data (Pro) or 15-minute delayed data (Free).
