public guideSENTINEL
Public guide for reading scanner observations, regime context, and dashboard fields. SENTINEL is an information service. It does not prescribe entries, exits, or position size.
Quick Read
Start with the regime band, then read the table. The table ranks contracts by scanner observations, but the score is not a trade instruction.
| Step | What To Read | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | BTC regime and breadth | Shows whether the market backdrop supports broad risk or caution |
| 2 | Mode and timeframe | Sets the window used by scanner readouts |
| 3 | Alpha, Win%, E[R] | Shows composite strength and matching historical bucket context |
| 4 | Pump, vs BTC, Mom | Shows whether the move has confirmation or is mostly noise |
Dashboard Overview
The scanner is organized from market context to coin-level detail.

Connection Status
The dot beside the SENTINEL mark shows whether the live scanner is connected.
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Connected | The scanner is receiving live updates |
| Reconnecting | The live stream dropped and is trying to reconnect |
| Polling | The page is using a slower fallback update path |
Modes
Modes change how the scanner weighs observations and which historical window the readouts use.
| Mode | Read |
|---|---|
| Scalp 1H | Shorter-window read. Momentum and outperformance carry more weight. |
| Hold 4H | Longer-window read. Momentum, correlation, and structure carry more weight. |
Regime Band
The regime band appears above the controls so the first read is market context, not table density. It renders a neutral loading state first, then swaps to live values when data arrives.
| Element | Meaning |
|---|---|
| BTC change | BTC move for the selected timeframe |
| Regime | BTC state derived from price action |
| Funding | BTC perpetual funding context |
| Breadth | Share of tracked contracts advancing |
| ML EDGE | Historical bucket readout for the active mode when live data is available |
Scanner Table
The table ranks tracked USDT perpetual contracts. Cold visitors start with a quiet column set; returning users keep their saved dense views.

Sorting and Views
Click a desktop column header to sort. The column picker can move from the quiet default to a denser desktop view. Mobile uses cards instead of the desktop table.
Alpha Score
Alpha Score is a composite observation from momentum, outperformance, volume, funding, open interest, correlation, and RSI context. It is a ranking signal, not a prediction.
| Range | Reading |
|---|---|
| 80-100 | Rare high-strength observation. Check context carefully. |
| 60-79 | Strong observation. Confirm breadth, pump score, and regime. |
| 40-59 | Moderate observation. Often still developing. |
| 20-39 | Weak observation. Usually background noise. |
| 0-19 | No meaningful scanner strength. |
Pump Score
Pump Score is a compact checklist. It is simpler than Alpha Score: each condition is either present or absent.
| Condition | Read |
|---|---|
| Momentum | Multiple timeframes agree |
| Volume | Participation is elevated |
| Open interest | Positioning is expanding |
| Independence | Move is not only BTC beta |
| RSI zone | Momentum is not excessively stretched |
| Freshness | Observation is recent |
| Score | Reading |
|---|---|
| 5-6 | High checklist agreement |
| 3-4 | Developing setup to monitor |
| 0-2 | Weak checklist agreement |
Filtering
Filters help reduce table noise without changing the underlying scanner data.
| Control | Use |
|---|---|
| Search | Filter by one or more symbols |
| Sector | Focus the table on one market sector |
| Min Alpha | Hide low-strength rows |
| Min Volume | Hide thinly traded rows |
| Min Pump | Show only rows with stronger checklist agreement |
| Outperf only | Show only contracts currently beating BTC |
| Watchlist | Show only starred contracts |
Mobile
On mobile, the scanner uses cards instead of the dense desktop table. Tap a card to expand it.
- The compact row shows rank, symbol, main score, and current context.
- Expanded cards expose overview, technical, and trade-planning tabs.
- The trade tab shows risk math from current price and volatility. It is an informational worksheet.
- Cards keep touch targets at a comfortable mobile size.
Exports
The scanner can export the current view for your own research notes. Exports are local browser actions.
| Action | Use |
|---|---|
| CSV | Download visible rows for offline review |
| Snapshot copy | Copy a structured text summary for personal research notes |
| Watchlist | Keep a browser-local list of contracts to revisit |
Boundaries
This public guide is limited to reading the web scanner. Operational runbooks and implementation details are not part of this page.
| SENTINEL Is | SENTINEL Is Not |
|---|---|
| A live scanner and public research desk | A broker, exchange, or investment adviser |
| A way to inspect observations and context | A source of personalized instructions |
| A source of weekly receipts and live readouts | A promise of future performance |
FAQ
Do I need to connect an exchange account?
No. The public scanner page does not ask you for exchange credentials.
How often does data update?
The scanner updates progressively. Some fields appear before deeper enrichment fields are ready, and the page keeps working while live services warm up.
Why do some fields show a dot?
A dot means the value is unavailable for that contract or the enrichment source did not return it. Missing values are not treated as bullish or bearish by themselves.
Is Alpha Score predictive?
It is a historical, forward-return-calibrated ranking readout. It can help organize research, but it does not predict the next move and does not replace risk management.
Why is the mobile view different?
Mobile cards prioritize legibility and touch targets. The desktop table remains the dense view.
