Events

Inspect AI strategy decisions, event details, and evaluation costs.

Active strategies produce events. Events record each AI evaluation and help you review decisions, refine prompts, and track credit use.

Each active strategy produces one event per evaluation for each selected market. Paused strategies produce no events, place no trades, and consume no AI credits.

Use events to validate a new strategy before increasing its trade quantity or evaluation frequency.

Review an event

1. Check Action, Amount, and Order Submitted to confirm the outcome.

2. Compare Confidence and Reasoning with the strategy's prompt.

3. Review Credits Used and token counts when managing costs.

Event properties

Property	Description
Creation Time	Time when the event was first recorded.
Pair	Market evaluated by the strategy.
Action	AI decision: BUY, SELL, HOLD, or CLOSE.
Amount	USD value of orders submitted for the event.
Price	Market mark price at creation time.
Confidence	AI confidence in the decision, from 0% to 100%.
Reasoning	Reasoning that led to the selected action.
Strategy	Strategy that generated the event.
Order Submitted	Whether the event submitted an order.
Forced Evaluation	Whether the event came from a forced evaluation.
Model	AI model used for the event.
Prompt Tokens	Tokens consumed by the prompt.
Completion Tokens	Tokens consumed by the model response.
Discretion	Whether the AI used discretion.
Cost Savings Mode	Whether the event used Cost Savings Mode. Reasoning output is minimal in this mode.
Thinking Time	Time the AI took to reach its decision.
Credits Used	AI credits consumed by the event.

Event frequency and credits

Evaluation frequency determines how quickly events accumulate. Every event consumes AI credits, which are automatically deducted from your USD balance.

Pause a strategy to stop event generation, trading, and credit use. You can resume a paused strategy at any time.
