PredictDesk docs

Understand how monitoring, signals, and external handoff fit around your broker without confusing PredictDesk for an execution platform.

Monitoring, signals, routing, and broker boundaries

Monitoring in PredictDesk means workflow continuity, not broker execution. Routing here means external handoff and control context. It does not mean PredictDesk executes trades. Execution remains with your broker or external execution stack.

What monitoring means in PredictDesk

Monitoring in PredictDesk should be read as workflow continuity, not as a promise that PredictDesk is your broker, your execution venue, or your order-management system. The product can carry research context forward so you can keep watching the setup, the relevant signals, and the changing conditions without losing the reasoning that got the idea on your desk in the first place. That is valuable. It is also different from trade execution.

What signals mean here

Signals are decision-support events or monitoring outputs that help you see when a setup deserves attention, reevaluation, or follow-through. They are not personalized trade recommendations, not guaranteed entries, and not a substitute for judgment. If you use them well, they save context-switching and reduce the chance that a researched idea disappears into a disconnected workflow. They do not remove the need to decide what to do next.

What routing means here

Routing should be described as external handoff and control context, not as brokerage execution. PredictDesk can be part of the chain that carries your research and monitoring intent forward, but the actual order, fill, custody, and broker controls remain outside PredictDesk. If a user hears "routing" and imagines exchange-grade execution or broker-native order handling, the copy has failed.

Where the broker boundary starts

The broker boundary starts where actual execution responsibility starts. Your broker or your external execution stack owns order placement, order status, fills, cancellations at the broker layer, custody, and any broker-specific compliance or operational controls. PredictDesk's role is upstream of that boundary: research, diagnostics, monitoring context, and handoff. It is deliberately broker-agnostic, and that boundary is a trust strength, not a weakness.

What to expect from this part of the workflow

You should expect PredictDesk to help you keep continuity between setup discovery, diagnostics, pressure testing, and monitoring. You should not assume that PredictDesk is promising broker-native execution. Judge it on whether it preserves reasoning and decision quality as the trade moves from idea to monitored opportunity.
