At-a-glance summaries
Every dashboard on BackQuant carries a summary card at the top. It compresses several panels of data into one composite read, so you can walk away from a glance with a real signal, not just a feeling. These pages explain how each summary scores its inputs and what its possible outputs mean.
Why summaries exist
The terminal is dense. A trader switching between coins, expiries, and timeframes can't scan every panel before the next minute's candle prints. Summary cards are the answer: a single line that tells you whether the underlying data is constructive, neutral, or dangerous, with the panel-level detail one click away.
Each of the five dashboards has its own summary, scoped to its domain. They share a visual language, bold composite label, supporting metric tiles, plain-language captions, but the inputs and the score formulas differ. The pages below cover each in turn.
