How AX-4 actually works.

No. AX-4 is a multi-stage vision pipeline. When you upload a chart, we first run an OCR pass to extract the price and time axes, then a candlestick primitive detector that isolates each OHLC bar with sub-pixel accuracy. Those primitives feed a market-structure classifier (HH/HL/LL/LH), a pattern head trained on 480,000 labeled setups (flags, wedges, triangles, head-and-shoulders, cup-and-handle, and 47 more), and a volume-profile estimator. Only after those stages do we synthesize a trade plan.

Sizing is deterministic: shares = floor((account_size × risk_pct) / (entry − stop)). Notional exposure is capped at 5× that number by default so you never over-leverage on a tight stop. For options, we back out contract counts from delta-adjusted risk, not premium.

Two reasons. First, the AI gateway has finite throughput and a public sign-up would degrade quality of service for serious members. Second, we hand-review every application to keep the community focused on traders who take the craft seriously — not people looking for lottery tickets. The founder personally approves or declines each request.

Charts are sent to the AI gateway for a single inference call and are not persisted to long-term storage. The trade plan itself is saved to your private analysis history so you can review past setups. Nothing you upload is shared with other members or used to train external models.
