DEPTH4 Help
DEPTH4 User Manual v1.2 — Your Macro Thesis Engine. Last updated 2026-07-07.
Welcome
DEPTH4 reads the headlines, maps the ripple effects, and flags where the market is still behind. This guide is the official user manual — use the sidebar or Cmd+K (Ctrl+K) to jump to any section. The product is a macro intelligence engine, not a news dashboard: every surface exists to help you move from a story to a tradable SIGNAL with direction, strength, room, and thesis backing.
What this manual covers
Start with What is DEPTH4? and the D1–D4 cascade if you are new. Then learn how Signals, Feed, and Theses differ so you open the right page for the job. Core feature chapters walk through the SIGNALS dashboard, live Feed activity, thesis browsing, and thesis detail. Advanced chapters cover Community overlays, creating a thesis, Leaderboard, Account & billing, Agent / MCP access, and Alerts. Reference pages hold troubleshooting, glossary, and FAQ.

Your first 2 minutes
Log in, dismiss the disclaimer, pick one signal card (try TLT or GLD), read Direction / Blind Spot / Edge / Conviction, check Entry timing on Insider+, expand contributing theses, then open a thesis for the full D1→D4 cascade.
That is the core DEPTH4 loop — everything else builds on it.
Quality standard
If an output looks like a headline rewrite, a generic analyst note, or lacks cause, path, timing, and market implication, treat it as incomplete. DEPTH4 is built to reject thin intelligence rather than publish it. Use Help when a label, page, or cascade step is unclear — misreading the product is more expensive than reading one more section.
