## At a glance

A useful market response separates observations from assumptions and makes missing evidence visible.

## Start with the question

Agree the decision being supported, the permitted sources and who is responsible for review.

## Inspect the evidence

Consider source identity, freshness, comparable instruments and market hours. Missing information should remain unknown rather than becoming an invented measurement.

## Evaluate before relying on results

Use agreed scenarios and scoring criteria to examine uncertainty, failure handling and human escalation. Descriptive context is not a validated trading strategy or a guarantee of performance.

## Inspect a structured sample

Illustrative workflow, not market data or a complete API response

Illustrative workflow only. No source data, private model parameters or execution logic are included.
