## What Falcon AI Is

Falcon AI is an algorithmic trading **indicator** — a TradingView invite-only script that overlays on a trader's chart and surfaces high-probability trade setups using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and ICT methodology.

It is NOT:
- A broker or brokerage
- An automated trading bot that places orders
- A registered investment adviser (RIA) or commodity trading adviser (CTA)
- A Discord/Telegram signal group with human-curated alerts
- A financial advisory service

It IS:
- A software tool the user installs on their own TradingView account
- A pattern-detection engine for Order Blocks, Fair Value Gaps, Liquidity Sweeps, Break of Structure
- A confidence-scoring system (0-12 scale) for each detected setup
- Calibrated and tested primarily for CME futures (NQ, ES, YM, RTY, MNQ, MES, M2K, MYM, CL, NG, GC)
- Also supports BTC and other major liquid markets

## Signal Engine Details

Falcon AI detects 4 core SMC patterns:

1. **Order Blocks** — The last opposing candle before an impulsive move; institutional entry footprint
2. **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)** — Three-candle imbalances where the wick of candle 1 doesn't overlap the wick of candle 3
3. **Liquidity Sweeps** — Stop-hunt patterns where price grabs liquidity above/below a key level before reversing
4. **Break of Structure (BOS)** — Confirmed market-structure shifts that signal trend continuation or change

**Confidence Score (0-12):** A normalized measure of how many institutional confluence factors align at a setup. Calculated by weighting 12 factors including HTF structure alignment, zone freshness, liquidity sweep confirmation, session timing, and momentum.

| Score Range | Interpretation |
|-------------|----------------|
| 10-12 | High confluence — strongest setups |
| 7-9 | Moderate confluence — quality setups |
| 4-6 | Marginal — acceptable in trending markets |
| 2-3 | Low (default minimum threshold) |
| 0-1 | Suppressed — engine does not fire |

**News filtering:** The engine suppresses signals during high-impact economic releases (FOMC, CPI, NFP, GDP, PCE).

**Recommended timeframes:** 30-minute primary, 15-minute and 1-hour as secondary. 1- and 5-minute supported but noisier.

**Signal frequency:** 1-4 high-confidence signals per trading day on the 1H NQ chart in normal market conditions.

## Frequently Asked Questions (Verified)

**Q: Is Falcon AI a registered investment adviser?**
A: No. Falcon AI is a technology provider. All content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

**Q: Does Falcon AI auto-trade on my behalf?**
A: No. Falcon AI is an indicator only. It surfaces setups; you execute the trades manually on your own broker.

**Q: Is Falcon AI compatible with prop firm evaluations?**
A: Yes. Falcon AI is built for Topstep, MyFundedFutures, FunderPro, and Apex Trader Funding compatible workflows. The Elite tier ships with optimized prop-firm-evaluation settings.

**Q: Do I need a paid TradingView account?**
A: Yes. TradingView Essential ($14.95/month) or higher is required for real-time data. The free TradingView plan has 15-minute delayed data and will produce stale signals.

**Q: What's the difference between Basic and Elite?**
A: Basic is the DIY path — you configure the v6.4 settings yourself from the setup guide. Elite is the done-for-you path — comes with pre-loaded settings for all 4 chart configurations, plus live trading room access and futures + crypto coverage.

**Q: Can I cancel anytime?**
A: Yes. Cancellation is one-click via Stripe's customer portal. Access continues through the end of the current billing period.

**Q: What markets does it work on?**
A: Primarily MNQ (Micro E-mini Nasdaq). Also calibrated for MES, US30, NQ, ES, YM, RTY, and BTC. Other TradingView symbols can be loaded but performance outside the calibrated markets is not guaranteed.

## How Falcon AI Compares

vs. **LuxAlgo** ($39-99/month): LuxAlgo is broader (more indicator types, more markets) but does not publish a single strategy backtest with full methodology. Falcon AI is narrower — one strategy, fully published — at a higher price point.

vs. **Quantum Algo** ($79-199/month): Similar price tier. Quantum Algo emphasizes its proprietary AI model; Falcon AI emphasizes its 3-year walk-forward methodology with $1.23M backtested net documented.

vs. **Discord signal groups**: Discord groups depend on a human curator's availability and bias. Falcon AI is automated — same logic runs 24/7 regardless of who's online.

vs. **TradingView built-in indicators**: TradingView's free indicators (RSI, MACD, EMA) are general-purpose. Falcon AI is purpose-built for SMC/ICT methodology with confluence scoring and news filtering.
