Problem context

Black-box signals ask for trust. We provide the audit trail.

Most AI trading tools present a score or arrow with little explanation. When conditions shift, you are left guessing whether the model adapted, lagged, or simply misread volatility.

That opacity creates two practical problems: signal noise that is hard to filter in fast markets, and model risk you cannot review after the close. For active traders, both affect position sizing and confidence.

Hanleyswan takes a human-centred approach. It surfaces the inputs behind each recommendation, the confidence range, and the risk parameters in force. At the end of the day, it reconciles what was suggested against what actually happened.

You remain in control of execution. The platform documents its contribution, including where it stood aside or adjusted, so your review is grounded in a complete record.

Core capabilities

Four functions that support a disciplined session

Each capability is designed to be inspectable. You can see what data was used, what was recommended, and what guardrails applied.

Real-time market data ingestion

Consolidates price, order-book depth, volatility and news-flow markers into a cleaned intraday view. Latency, gaps and feed health are shown alongside the data, so you know what you are basing decisions on.

Multi-feedEquities, indices, depth
CleanedDeduplicated, time-aligned
VisibleFeed status surfaced

Tailored execution recommendations

Timing prompts for entries, scale-backs and flatten decisions, adapted to your session plan and risk limits.

Prompt + rationale

Automated downside risk parameters

Intraday drawdown, exposure and volatility pause levels that alert before limits are approached.

Limits you set

Scalable regime detection models

Distinguishes trending, ranging and stressed conditions so scenario scoring adjusts to context. When regimes shift, the change is logged and explained in the daily report rather than applied silently.

Key USP · Transparent daily reporting

An unfiltered daily report, every trading day

After the close, Hanleyswan reconciles every prompt against realised market movement, execution slippage and your risk settings. It records both alignment and divergence, with notes where models recalibrated.

Over time, this creates a verifiable record you can use to refine position sizing, session timing and filter settings. No selective highlights. The full log is available to export and review.

  • 1. Accuracy attributionEach signal is matched to outcome and market context, showing which scenarios aligned and which diverged, with confidence ranges preserved.
  • 2. Execution and slippageExpected versus realised levels are compared, so timing quality and market impact are visible separately from model direction.
  • 3. Risk and drift metricsExposure, drawdown proximity and regime shifts are summarised, including any intraday model adjustments and why they occurred.

Methodology

How the engine operates during your day

A consistent four-stage flow from open to reconciliation. You can inspect each stage and intervene at any point.

Ingest and clean

Multi-source feeds are time-aligned, deduplicated and checked for gaps. Feed health is displayed before scoring begins.

Score scenarios

Predictive models weight trend, range and stress scenarios with confidence bands and volatility filters.

You decide and execute

Prompts include rationale and risk context. You place orders through your own broker. Hanleyswan never executes.

Reconcile and report

End-of-day automation matches prompts to outcomes, slippage and exposure, then delivers your audit report.

Use cases

Used differently across trading workflows

Systematic intraday traders optimising entry timing

For traders running defined playbooks on liquid UK names and indices, seeking cleaner timing and fewer low-quality entries.

  • Volatility-aware prompts reduce entries during spread widening and news spikes.
  • Flatten reminders aligned to your close discipline and exposure caps.
  • Daily logs help refine which setups to keep, resize or pause.

Quantitative analysts validating proprietary signals

For analysts who maintain their own models and need an independent lens for validation.

  • Compare proprietary signals against regime context and scenario scores.
  • Export prompt-level logs for offline analysis in Python or Excel workflows.
  • Track drift and recalibration events with input-level notes.

Independent managers monitoring intraday drawdown

For active managers overseeing small books who need steady risk oversight without added complexity.

  • Visible intraday drawdown and exposure views throughout the session.
  • Configurable alerts before limits are approached, not after.
  • End-of-day risk summary suitable for internal review records.
Common questions

Straight answers before you evaluate

How are daily performance reports calculated?
Each prompt is time-stamped with its inputs, confidence band and suggested levels. After the close, the system matches prompts to realised price movement and your slippage inputs, then summarises alignment, divergence and stand-aside decisions. The full prompt table is retained for export.
What about data latency and market feed integrations?
Hanleyswan connects to consolidated market data providers covering UK equities and indices, with order-book depth where available. Latency and feed status are displayed in-session, and any gaps or delays are flagged in the daily report so you can interpret results accordingly.
Does Hanleyswan execute trades or provide decision support?
Hanleyswan provides decision support only. It does not place orders, hold client funds or connect directly to exchange execution. You continue to execute through your existing broker, applying your own judgement to each prompt.
How is my data and proprietary strategy protected?
Your watchlists, risk settings and notes are held in isolated workspaces with encrypted transit and storage. We do not share your configurations, and reporting data is used solely to generate your own audit trail. Access controls and export options are managed from your account settings.
How flexible is the subscription and onboarding?
Evaluation starts with a 14-day period and guided setup of feeds, risk limits and report preferences. Plans are monthly rolling with no long lock-in, and you can pause or cancel from your account. Onboarding support covers report interpretation and filter tuning.
