# AIMS Dashboard: The Confluence Cockpit

The AIMS Confluence Dashboard presents component facts and combined reads. Use it to inspect what is available, whether the reads agree and what still needs review. A dashboard read does not place a trade.

## What You See on the Chart[​](#what-you-see-on-the-chart "Direct link to What You See on the Chart")

This lesson uses the approved Banana schematic and deliberately leaves the other component reads unavailable. It teaches why a timing reference cannot establish combined alignment by itself. No live verdict is calculated.

Completed pattern: The Banana reference is available. Other component reads are not supplied, so combined alignment cannot be established.

#### What was known

1. **After candle 1:**
   
   The first completed candle closed below its open.
2. **After candle 2:**
   
   A second bearish candle continued the move lower.
3. **After candle 3:**
   
   Three completed bearish candles form the impulse leg.
4. **After candle 4:**
   
   The first pullback candle broke the previous high and completed with a higher low.
5. **After candle 5:**
   
   The timing reference is visible; Box, Wave and Bubble context remains unavailable.

Candles: blue closes at or above the open; red closes below the open.

The Banana reference is available. Other component reads are not supplied, so combined alignment cannot be established.

Read each component and its freshness before interpreting the combined assessment. A dashboard read is a prompt for review; it does not execute a trade.

## Read the layers separately[​](#read-the-layers-separately "Direct link to Read the layers separately")

| Element   | Review question                                          |
| --------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| Wave      | What count and phase are currently supplied?             |
| Bubble    | What do the band, stretch and episode reads show?        |
| Box       | What structure, state and filter reasons are available?  |
| Banana    | Is there a completed timing signal to review?            |
| Dashboard | How do the available facts combine, and what is missing? |

Unavailable or stale facts do not mean alignment. A valid component signal and a cautious combined assessment can coexist because they answer different questions.

## Review the dashboard[​](#review-the-dashboard "Direct link to Review the dashboard")

1. Check that the needed products and their reads are available.
2. Read each component's state before relying on the combined summary.
3. Separate lifecycle status from quality. [WAIT / ARMED / TRIGGERED and quality tiers](/indicators/confluence/docs/strategy-foundation/confluence-status-model.md) have different meanings.
4. Read the reason and next-review guidance, then check your plan, risk and execution conditions.

Do not interpret a quality tier as a win rate or a trading guarantee.

## Alerts and settings[​](#settings--gui "Direct link to Alerts and settings")

Confluence alerts are optional prompts to review the panel. They do not execute trades. Read the [Confluence reads guide](/indicators/confluence/docs/features/confluence-reads.md#opt-in-alerts) before enabling them and confirm the installed settings.

## Frequently Asked Questions[​](#frequently-asked-questions "Direct link to Frequently Asked Questions")

### Does one arrow establish agreement across the pack?[​](#does-one-arrow-establish-agreement-across-the-pack "Direct link to Does one arrow establish agreement across the pack?")

No. It supplies one component fact. Inspect Box, Wave, Bubble and the combined assessment separately.

### Why can the Banana tab and combined assessment differ?[​](#why-can-the-banana-tab-and-combined-assessment-differ "Direct link to Why can the Banana tab and combined assessment differ?")

The component tab reports the signal read; the combined layer also interprets the surrounding facts. Missing or conflicting context can change the assessment without changing the visible signal.
