ABSORB#
A processor behavioural state used by the Desk. Exact trigger logic remains engine-defined.
OPERATOR DICTIONARY
GLOSSARY
Fast definitions for conventional and QuadCOM-specific terminology.
ACC#
QuadCOM processor mode associated with accumulation-oriented interpretation; not a direct synonym for BUY.
ATR#
Average True Range; a conventional volatility measure calculated from price ranges.
BACKEND#
The hardware path GLIMMER runs a job on: WebGPU, WebGL2 in a worker, Wasm SIMD in a worker, or plain JavaScript, tried in that order.
BOOK#
A managed internal position/book object in QuadCOM; context determines whether it refers to exposure, order-book data, or a processor book.
BOOTSTRAP#
Resampling a desk's own recent price moves, in blocks, to simulate thousands of possible paths. GLIMMER's risk cone and trade odds are bootstrap Monte Carlo; they are model output.
BULL / BEAR BALANCE#
A Desk field summarising bullish versus bearish fleet balance.
CALIBRATION (GLIMMER)#
Before an accelerated backend is trusted, it runs a small fixed problem and must match the plain-JavaScript reference. A backend that disagrees is not used.
CFD100#
The Desk's margin model: each PicoProcessor trades a contract for difference on its desk's pair, at up to 100:1 margin.
CONFLUENCE#
Internal agreement or reinforcement across relevant QuadCOM signals/processors.
CROWN#
The fleet rank-leadership concept.
DESK BAR#
The bar at the bottom of a desk in portrait: switches between the Bitcoin, Dogecoin, XRP and Litecoin desks, or returns to all desks.
DIST#
QuadCOM processor mode associated with distribution-oriented interpretation; not a direct synonym for SELL.
EFFECTIVE INDEPENDENT PICOS#
The number of truly independent PicoProcessors implied by how correlated their returns are. GLIMMER estimates it as a participation ratio. It is model output.
ENTRY#
The entry level shown by the Best Singular Trade output when available.
ENVELOPE#
The share of spare compute GLIMMER may use right now, from 0 to 100%. It grows slowly while the page stays smooth and drops at once when it does not.
FLEET#
The complete PicoProcessor population.
FLEET BALANCE#
Aggregate balance/state across the fleet.
GLIMMER#
The Desk's compute governor: it runs trade odds, the risk cone, the parameter sweep and fleet correlation on headroom the device can spare.
GROSS#
Gross exposure before opposing exposure is netted.
HOLDOUT#
The most recent 30% of price history, which the parameter sweep does not fit to. A setting that scores well in training but badly on holdout is overfitted.
INTEGRITY#
An internal quality/integrity field used by the existing Desk; exact calculation remains engine-defined.
LOSS ATTRIBUTION#
Desk analysis assigning or decomposing sources of loss/risk.
MAE#
Maximum Adverse Excursion: the greatest adverse movement during a position's life.
MFE#
Maximum Favorable Excursion: the greatest favorable movement during a position's life.
MICROSTRUCTURE#
Market structure at order/queue/depth scale; the Desk includes imbalance, slope, toxicity and related analytics.
NAV#
Net Asset Value of a PicoProcessor/fund state.
P0–P3#
GLIMMER workload classes: P0 interactive (the Desk itself), P1 live, P2 opportunistic and P3 idle. Lower classes always give way to higher ones.
PICOPROCESSOR#
An individual QuadCOM processor identity with its own state and performance.
PICOPROCESSOR WALL#
The dense visual field representing the PicoProcessor population.
PIVOT HORIZON#
An internal estimate of time/horizon to a modelled pivot; not an observed market fact.
PRESSURE (INFERRED)#
GLIMMER's estimate of device strain (HEADROOM, NORMAL, PRESSURE or THROTTLED-LIKE), inferred from frame timing, event-loop delay and kernel speed. No temperature is read.
PROFIT GRAVITY#
QuadCOM-specific performance/selection telemetry used by the Desk; exact engine definition is implementation-owned.
PROFIT TRUTH#
QuadCOM-specific validation/performance telemetry used by the Desk; exact engine definition is implementation-owned.
RISK CONE#
The spread of simulated outcomes at 12 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours (P5 to P95) drawn in VISION. Model output from bootstrap Monte Carlo.
RPL#
Realized profit/loss.
SINGULAR TRADE#
The system's compact selected output. Public compact form: SIDE, ENTRY, SL, TP.
SL#
Stop-loss level in the singular output.
SWEEP#
A processor behavioural state associated with sweep interpretation; exact trigger logic remains engine-defined.
TIER (VISION)#
VISION's render quality (ULTRA, HIGH, MED or LOW), chosen from GLIMMER's health reading. Lower tiers render at lower resolution without the reveal sweep.
TOP PICOPROCESSOR#
The current fleet leader under QuadCOM ranking.
TP#
Take-profit level in the singular output.
TRADE ODDS#
The simulated chance that the best singular trade reaches its take-profit or its stop-loss first, within its horizon. Model output, with its standard error shown.
UPL#
Unrealized profit/loss.
VISION#
The Desk view that renders GLIMMER output: the risk cone, trade odds, the holdout map and fleet independence.
VPIN PROXY#
A proxy inspired by volume-synchronised probability-of-informed-trading concepts; the Desk's exact implementation is its own derived analytic.
WAIT#
A processor state indicating no immediate directional action under its current logic.
WEBGPU#
The browser GPU interface GLIMMER uses when available. On Apple devices it is the route to Metal-class GPUs, not native Metal access.
