FX decision support · invite-only

Lodestone is a quiet instrument for reading the forex tape.

Six data streams in, plain-English trade ideas out — or honest silence when there's nothing worth saying. Personal use. Invite-only. Not a service, not a product, not a thing being sold.

If there's nothing worth surfacing, the engine says nothing. That's the design, not a bug.

Every other tool manufactures noise to fill the screen. When the cockpit is quiet it means exactly that — the market is quiet. The empty state is a designed surface, not an absence.

constraints

What it doesn't do.

  • Place trades — you do that yourself in your broker
  • Connect to a broker or execute anything automatically
  • Claim a win rate, accuracy score, or track record
  • Size positions — that's your risk policy, not ours
  • Fill silence with noise to look busy
  • Become a commercial product or regulated signals service

how it works

What it does.

  • Reads six data streams every 30 minutes
  • Runs ideas through a 10-stage signal gate before anything surfaces
  • Surfaces 0–4 plain-English trade ideas per cycle — or says nothing
  • Grades each idea's freshness against live price through the day
  • Shows when a thesis is decaying — before you enter
  • Stays silent when the market is quiet

six streams · one pass · every 30 minutes

What's feeding the engine.

Each stream runs on its own cadence. The live dots show what's active.

US macro tape — DXY, UST 2y/10y, VIX. Daily snapshot, structured for the LLM.

Speculator positioning, z-scored. Crowded trade on the long side? The engine knows.

the cockpit

What the feed looks like.

Three ideas in three freshness states. Each is graded continuously against live price — amber when the thesis drifts, closed when it invalidates.
