When your symbol page and Hunt disagree

A short checklist for timestamps, modes, and batch vs on-demand analysis—so you resolve mismatches without assuming the product is broken.

When to use this checklist

You see Stage 2 on the symbol page but Hunt calls the line weak, or a candidate looks great on the page but Hunt muted it—or the opposite. Often this is timing or scope, not a hidden second engine.

Checklist (in order)

  1. Note the symbol page analysis timestamp — When was ATHENA last run for this symbol? Stale labels make Hunt’s portfolio pass look “wrong.”
  2. Note when you ran Hunt — Hunt uses snapshots available at run time; it does not continuously re-fetch every open symbol the second prices tick. See the callout in How ATHENA fits your trading process.
  3. Confirm Hunt mode — General (book health + swaps), replace (one exit, many candidates), interest (one candidate’s fit), and Cash Hunt answer different questions. Mixing modes causes false “disagreement.”
  4. Reconcile panels on the symbol page first — If AI Signal and Pattern Direction already diverge, resolve with When panels disagree before blaming Hunt.
  5. Batch vs on-demand — Did batch analysis just refresh (or fail for) this symbol? See Batch analysis: what just happened?.
  6. Automation timestamp — If ARES traded or skipped the name, the decision log reflects that moment in time; the symbol page may update after the run. Read Reading automation decision logs.
  7. Policy and caps — Risk settings and agent policy can filter or skip ideas that look fine on a standalone symbol page—see Policy and constraints in plain language.
  8. If nothing explains it — Check Status, delays, and “is it broken?” and FAQ; capture timestamps and screens for support.

Worked timing pattern (mental model)

  • T1 — You open the symbol page (analysis timestamp A).
  • T2 — You run Hunt minutes later; some symbols still on timestamp A, others refreshed at T2 depending on batch and cache behavior.
  • T3 — You place a trade; the symbol page may show timestamp T4 after the next ATHENA refresh.

Disagreement across T1–T3 is normal if price or indicators moved—your job is to know which timestamp you are acting on.
