AI desk
One press runs four analysts, a bull and a bear who argue, and a trader who decides BUY, SELL or HOLD for the selected market — what each role reads, what a verdict is and is not, the daily runs, and the history.
The AI desk module gives a view on direction for the selected market — the one place in TapeHawk that does. It is in the Portfolio layout and needs a confirmed account, because a run uses a paid language model several times. Anyone else sees a link to sign in, or a note to confirm their email.
The desk is not investment advice. It is a language model's reading of the data on this page, and its BUY, SELL or HOLD can be wrong. The module keeps a note saying so at the top, and it cannot be dismissed. Decide for yourself, and trade only what you can afford to lose. See the risk disclaimer.
A run
Press Run the desk on the selected market. The desk works through nine steps, one after another, and the module shows step N of 9 while it does. A run takes about a minute.
| Step | Role | What it reads |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4 | Order-flow analyst, Macro analyst, News analyst, Risk analyst | The market's recorded order flow over the last day; the US rates and spreads of the Macro module; the day's headlines about the coin; and the risk of your own portfolio — its value at risk and Sharpe ratio, this market's weight in it, and how closely the market moves with the rest |
| 5–6 | Bull and Bear | The four analysts' notes. Each argues one side |
| 7–8 | Bull — rebuttal and Bear — rebuttal | The other side's argument. Each answers it |
| 9 | Trader | The whole debate, then the decision |
A role that has nothing to read says so and is skipped rather than made up: no data, no headlines today, no portfolio, or portfolio history too short. The other roles carry on. The news analyst's card shows how many of the day's headlines for the coin were good, bad and neutral.
The verdict
When the trader decides, the top of the run shows one of BUY, SELL or HOLD, with a confidence of low confidence, medium confidence or high confidence — a buy in green, a sell in red, a hold in plain.
A verdict is a direction and nothing else. The desk gives no entry price, no stop and no target, and it is built not to: the bull, the bear and the trader may argue in words what a trader could do and where price may go, but an answer that names a stop or a level to buy at fails the fact check, and a run that keeps failing it stops. As in the assistant, the model writes no numbers; every figure in a card was filled in by TapeHawk from recorded data.
Under the verdict is a card for each role, in the order the desk worked. A card shows its first lines until you click it to open or close it; the trader's card starts open.
Runs per day
A confirmed account has a small number of runs a day — the module shows N of M runs left today beside the button. When none are left it says when they come back, which is 00:00 UTC. Only one run goes at a time.
A run that stops before a verdict is not counted, and the module says so (this run was not counted). A run stops when:
- a role's answer did not pass the fact check — Stopped: a role's answer did not pass the fact check;
- the AI service did not answer;
- the server restarted during the run;
- the market has no complete order-flow record for the last day, so the desk cannot read it. The module says this at once and nothing is counted.
The desk can also be refused for the same reasons as the assistant: too many AI requests this hour, today's AI allowance used up, or the shared daily ceiling reached.
If you reload the page or come back to the Terminal while a run is going, the module picks the run up again.
History
The History tab lists your earlier runs, newest first: the time in UTC, the market, and the verdict with its confidence — or stopped for a run that did not finish. Click a row to read that run's cards, read-only, under the Run tab. Older runs loads more. Every run you start is kept.
