Helm
Read-only · Never executes trades

Helm watches your chart while you trade.

Live Observe is a second set of eyes on your session. While you trade, Helm quietly reads the chart you're looking at — trend, levels, structure — and journals what it sees, so your coach can connect what the market showed you to what you did about it. It observes. It never acts.

How it works
1
Share your chart window — once
On a live session, click Start observing and your browser's own share prompt appears. You pick what Helm may see — we recommend just the chart window, not the whole screen. Nothing is captured until you choose, and nothing outside that window is ever visible to Helm.
2
Helm samples still frames on your cadence
A single snapshot of the shared window on the capture interval you set in Settings (60–120 seconds suits most traders). Frames are downscaled before upload. Helm never records video and never captures audio — it samples stills, the way a mentor glances over, not a camera that runs.
3
Each frame becomes structure
Vision analysis reads the chart into structured data — symbol, timeframe, trend, support and resistance levels, and any annotations you've drawn. A real read looks like this:Screenshot analyzed: NQ1! · 5m · downtrend (confidence 85%). Support 24,850 / 24,730 · resistance 25,430 / 25,340.
4
It lands on your session timeline
Every observation is journaled next to your trades and risk snapshots — a timestamped record of what the market looked like when you acted, or didn't. You can replay any session from your Journal, and that record is what the coach draws on.
What the coach does with it
The screenshots appeared to show NQ in a 5m downtrend with resistance around 25,340–25,430 and support near 24,730–24,850, so there was a defined structure in front of you. With no trader notes logged, though, there's no record of what you saw or why you held off. What kept you on the sidelines today — was it a lack of setup that fit your plan, or hesitation on a read you trusted?
A real Helm session review from an observed session — advisory reflection, not a signal.

This is the point of observing. A journal tells you what you did; analytics tell you how it went. Observation adds the missing third piece — what was in front of you at the time — so reviews can name the pattern that actually costs money: the gap between what the chart showed and what you did anyway. That's discipline coaching, not trade calling.

Private by design
  • You choose the surface. The share prompt is your browser's own — Helm only ever sees the window you picked, and the frame counter on the dashboard shows you exactly when it looks.
  • Plainly stated: frames of that window are uploaded, stored with your session, and analyzed to coach you. That's the deal, in one sentence, with nothing buried in fine print.
  • Stop anytime, two ways. The Stop button on the card, or your browser's own “Stop sharing” control — either ends capture immediately. Nothing runs when no session is live.
What Helm will never do
  • Never executes a trade — Helm has no way to place, modify, or cancel an order. That path does not exist in the product.
  • Never connects to your broker's execution — there is nothing to toggle on, in any plan.
  • Never turns an observation into a trade signal — no “buy here,” no alerts to act. Chart reads are advisory observations, always framed as what the screenshots appeared to show.
  • Never trades against your attention — Helm makes nothing when you place an order, so it has no reason to push you into one.
Included in your plan

The Free plan includes 5 AI chart observations every month, so you can feel what it's like to trade with a second set of eyes before paying anything. Helm Pro removes the cap — unlimited observation at a flat rate, never metered, because a discipline tool should never make you hesitate to let it watch. Plan details are on the pricing page, and you can try it right now on a live session.

Live Observe runs in desktop Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari; the dashboard tab stays open while observing, and a backgrounded tab may stretch the capture cadence slightly. Chart reads are automated observations and can be wrong — they are advisory context for coaching, never ground truth. Helm is a read-only coaching and journaling tool and is not affiliated with Apex or any prop firm.
