How Kudbee reads a trade — an illustrated walkthrough

Reading the animation

The card runs on its own, but it's yours to drive — switch setups, pause to read, or step through one candle at a time.

Chips Switch setup The labelled chips along the top jump between the five patterns. Left on its own, the card cycles through them.

❚❚ ▶ Play / pause Freezes the animation and the reasoning stream so you can read; resumes from the same spot.

◀ ▶ Step Advance (or rewind) one candle at a time — the reasoning log adds a line per beat. Arrow keys work too.

Log The reasoning rail The side panel is the "why": one tagged line per important candle, with the session time it printed.

The concepts, in plain English

Every tag in the reasoning log maps to something the engine actually computes. Definitions below; the full method lives in the methodology.

Daily open open: The day's opening price — a fair-value pivot. Trading above it is "premium," below it "discount"; many setups aim to break or reclaim it.
Session session: The Asian / London / New-York windows. The market-maker cycle makes certain hours far likelier to sweep liquidity and reverse — time-of-day is context, not noise.
Reference level level: A price the market reacts to: prior-day high/low (PDH/PDL), round "psych" numbers, VWAP, or the overnight Asian range. Levels are where stops cluster.
Liquidity sweep sweep: Price spikes just past a level to trigger resting stops, then snaps back. The stop-run is the trap that sets up the reversal the agents look for.
PVSRA vector vector: A candle with outsized volume — climax (≥2× average) or vector (≥1.5×) — marking where large participants stepped in. The reclaim candle after a sweep is the tell.
Market structure structure: The sequence of swing highs and lows — higher-low, lower-high, double-bottom (W). Structure is how the system decides "reversal" versus "just a wick."
Confluence gate confluence: A score of how many independent factors agree (level + sweep + vector + structure + session…). The system only acts when the score clears its ≥50% gate.
Backtest lens backtest: Every pattern is treated as a hypothesis measured on history — "a measured hypothesis, not a promise." A read is never "this is a buy."
Risk / R risk: Every plan is framed in R — risk units. A defined stop is 1R; the target is a multiple (e.g. 3R means three times the risk). Sizing follows from the stop, not a hunch.
Result result: The outcome tag at the target. Always labelled illustrative — it shows where the plan would have aimed, never a claimed or real fill.

The five setups

All grounded in the engine — nothing invented. Click a chip on the card to watch any of them.

W · liquidity sweep long Sweep below support → bull-vector reclaim → higher-low → break the neckline of a double-bottom.

Fade · psych-high → daily open short Climax spike above a round number → bear-vector rejection → lower high → break the daily open.

Asian sweep · London reversal long London opens and sweeps the overnight Asian-range low, reclaims, and runs — time-of-day is the star.

PDH sweep · reclaim short Prior-day-high stop-run → bear-vector reclaim under it → lower high → break down to the prior-day low.

Confluence stack · gate long Daily-open, prior-day-low and a round number stack up → sweep of the stack → bull vector → the gate clears 75% → breakout.
