Helios reads dealer gamma on SPY and QQQ, turns it into timed trades with a hold rule, and grades every one in public. The structure read is right 72% of the time at 60 minutes, on 107 graded entries.
One instruction at a time: BUY CALLS or BUY PUTS, the start time, the hold, the sell-by time. Red or green when it closes. No options expertise required.
Free forever. No card.
The day is a sequence of reads, each with a time stamp and a record. You never have to guess what the machine thinks right now.
The same market-structure machinery a gamma desk runs, dealer positioning, hedging pressure, liquidity, read live and explained in plain words. Nothing black-boxed.
The now box tells you the trade on the tape and how long it has left. When there is no graded read, it says so, in amber, and names the lean of the structure. Nothing to interpret.

It is the structure read's own record object, read live from the feed: the bot's real fills with the zero-gamma line since July 20, graded 60 minutes after each entry. Inside 30 basis points of the line the read refuses both sides, and those minutes are not counted. The basis sentence travels with the number everywhere it is shown.
An instruction with a clock: BUY CALLS or BUY PUTS, the start time, the hold rule and the sell-by time. The hold comes from that hour's record, not from a guess. When the card closes you see the move in green or red, and the next window is named. A card only fires in hours whose reads have passed their bar.
Every read is stamped when it is made and graded forward, never backfilled. The 10:00 call is graded against the close; an hour read against the price 60 minutes later. Each organ has a pre-registered pass and fail bar. What fails is retired and the retirement is published. The ledger is public.
OPRA-derived options chains, dealer positioning models calibrated against open interest and observed hedging behavior, real-time price and volume, and order-book data for imbalance. Volatility surfaces are smoothed with a no-arbitrage model.
Each payload is filtered on the server before delivery. Free sees the daily call, the machine side with its record, the regime and the key levels. Day Trader adds the timed cards, the hour reads, the live structure and Telegram alerts. Pro adds the positioning ladders, the volatility surface and API access. Your key encodes your tier.
No. Helios is signals only. The paper book you see is a simulated account that trades the morning call under fixed published rules, shown so the rules can be checked. There is no order routing, no managed capital, and no individualized investment advice.
SPY and QQQ, the two most liquid index options in the world, both live. Pro customers can request additional liquid US equity options coverage per desk.
