User Guide

CerebroMacro is a macro and trend terminal built on real data — the Federal Reserve (FRED), the US Treasury, the CFTC's Commitments of Traders, and your live IQFeed. It helps you read market structure: liquidity, positioning, the yield curve, breadth, and trend. It doesn't predict prices and won't pretend to — the job is to show the real picture clearly so you can make the call.

How to read it

Don't try to read every tick — look for extremes and divergences across independent signals. When net liquidity is draining while market breadth narrows, conditions are getting fragile. When COT positioning reaches a multi-year extreme, the crowd is one-sided. When the 2s10s curve dis-inverts after a long inversion, history suggests paying attention. The edge is in the confluence, not any single reading.

In practice: wait for two or three independent, real indicators to line up before you act. One signal is noise; agreement across liquidity, positioning, and trend is a setup.

Live data vs. simulated tools

Most of the terminal runs on live data, and every widget shows its source (FRED, US Treasury, CFTC, IQFeed, Yahoo). Two areas — the AI Agents and Scenario Sandbox tabs — hold model and what-if tools that are clearly marked "Simulated — not live data." Use those to explore hypotheticals, never as live readings.

Rule: if a panel carries a SIMULATED label, treat its numbers as illustrative only. Everything else is the real thing, sourced and dated.
