PROFESSIONAL USER MANUAL
Plazo Sullivan Roche Capital
1. Core Philosophy
Prometheus AI is not a signal generator. It is a probabilistic regime detection engine.
Instead of reacting to lagging indicators (like MAs), it:
Learns from historical price behavior (KNN memory. Pro version uses Neural Networks analysis)
Identifies statistical similarity in current conditions
Confirms with institutional footprint (SMC + ICT + Volume + Liquidity)
👉 Translation:You are only trading when both the machine AND smart money agree
2. Core Logic (Signal Stack)
Layer 1 — Feature Extraction (Market State Encoding)
Prometheus converts the market into a multidimensional state:
Momentum (ret1, ret3, ret5)
VWAP deviation (mean reversion vs expansion)
CVD slope (order flow pressure)
Range expansion (volatility regime)
Candle position (close location efficiency)
HTF bias encoding
Layer 2 — KNN Probabilistic Engine (Pro version uses Neural Network Probabilistic Engine)
Stores N past market states (memory)
Finds K nearest historical analogs
Weighs them by similarity
Outputs:
Output | Meaning |
Bull Probability | Likelihood of upward continuation |
Bear Probability | Likelihood of downward continuation |
Chop Probability | Likelihood of noise / inefficiency |
Layer 3 — Institutional Backdrop Filter
The AI is NOT allowed to trade alone
It must align with:
Liquidity sweep (Asian / PDH / PDL)
Displacement candle (real participation)
Fair Value Gap (inefficiency)
BOS / structure shift
VWAP positioning
CVD confirmation
HTF bias
Session timing
Layer 4 — Signal Trigger
A trade only prints when:
ML Confidence + Institutional Backdrop + Session Alignment = TRUE3. Trade Logic (Execution Framework)
BUY Conditions
Bull probability ≥ threshold (default 0.68)
Chop probability ≤ threshold
Liquidity sweep LOW → reversal
Displacement bullish candle
FVG present
BOS confirmation
Price above VWAP
CVD bullish
HTF aligned
Inside London/NY session
SELL Conditions
Inverse of the above.
4. Best Assets (Where This Prints Money)
Prometheus thrives where liquidity engineering exists:
Tier 1 (Primary Targets)
XAUUSD (Gold) ← Best performer
NAS100 / US100
US30
SPX500
Tier 2
EURUSD
GBPUSD
BTC (with caution)
Avoid
Low-volume altcoins
Exotic FX pairs
Illiquid sessions
👉 Why?Because Prometheus depends on institutional footprints, not retail noise.
5. Best Timeframes
Entry Timeframes
M5 (Primary)
M3 (Aggressive)
M15 (Conservative)
HTF Bias
H4 + Daily (built into system)
Best Time Windows (NY Time)
Session | Window | Behavior |
London Killzone | 2:30–4:30 AM | Liquidity sweeps |
NY Open | 9:30–11:00 AM | Expansion / trend |
6. Parameters (How to Tune Like a Fund)
KNN Engine (Pro version uses Neural Network Engine)
Memory: 150–250
Neighbors: 7–15
👉 More memory = smoother, slower👉 Fewer neighbors = more reactive
Thresholds
Parameter | Default | Aggressive | Conservative |
Bull/Bear Threshold | 0.68 | 0.60 | 0.75 |
Chop Threshold | 0.25 | 0.35 | 0.20 |
Protections (KEEP THESE ON)
✅ Liquidity Sweep
✅ Displacement
✅ FVG
✅ BOS
✅ VWAP Bias
✅ CVD Confirmation
✅ Session Gate
Turning these off = turning institutional edge off. Some parameters are disabled by default- you may re-enable for fund grade protection.
7. Dashboard (How to Read It Fast)
Think of the dashboard like a war room panel:
Component | Meaning |
HTF Bias | Directional regime |
Session | Are we allowed to trade? |
VWAP | Mean or trend? |
CVD | Real buying/selling? |
Liquidity | Trap triggered? |
Displacement | Institutions active? |
FVG | Inefficiency present? |
Structure | Break confirmed? |
ML State | Final decision |
Confidence | Probability strength |
Golden Rule
If 2–3 elements disagree → NO TRADE
8. Best Practices (This Is Where Traders Separate Themselves)
1. Trade AFTER the trap
Wait for liquidity sweep
Not before
Never chase
2. Let ML lead, not override
If ML says no → skip itEven if price “looks good”
3. Kill chop aggressively
Chop = account killerRespect chop probability
4. One trade per move
System is designed for:
Precision entries
Not overtrading
5. Stack confluence, not indicators
You already have:
ML
Volume
Structure
VWAP
Liquidity
Anything more = noise
6. Respect sessions
Outside sessions = fake movesInside sessions = real money
9. Risk Management (Non-Negotiable)
Per Trade
Risk: 0.5% – 1%
Stop: Below/above sweep
TP:
50% at 1:1
Runner at 2–4R
Why this works
Prometheus is built for:
High win rate entries
Low drawdown
Explosive continuation
10. Strengths vs Traditional Systems
Traditional | Prometheus AI |
Lagging indicators | Predictive modeling |
Static rules | Adaptive memory |
No context | Full market state awareness |
Retail logic | Institutional alignment |
11. Limitations (Let’s stay honest)
Needs clean data (bad feeds reduce edge)
Underperforms in extreme news spikes
Requires discipline (not overtrading)
12. Final Insight (The Edge Most Miss)
Most traders ask:
“Where should I enter?”
Professionals ask:
“When is the market statistically aligned for asymmetric opportunity?”
Prometheus answers that question.
