The live view
The current 15-minute window as the system reads it: the target, the live price, the strength of the read — and the lock, the moment every gate passes and it freezes.

How to read this page
- Target: the 60-second average of the official index set when the window opened. The closing average at or above it settles "up"; below it, "down".
- Cushion: how far the live price sits from the target, scaled by volatility — the core measurement behind the model read.
- The lock: when the read is strong enough for the time left and the price is inside the cap, the call freezes — one per window, at most. It is graded on the record either way.
- Sitting out is the default. Most windows never lock. A quiet page is the system working as designed.
