# 2. Check key GEX levels
mcporter call 'profitabul.get_key_levels(symbol: "SPX")'

mcporter call 'profitabul.get_signal(
  symbol: "SPX",
  gex_bias: "positive",
  vex_bias: "bullish",
  vix_trend: "falling"
)'
```

### Historical Analysis

```bash
# Get 30 days of 5-minute candles
mcporter call 'profitabul.get_history(symbol: "ES", timeframe: "5m", days: 30)'

# Run ORB analysis
mcporter call 'profitabul.run_report(reportType: "orb", symbol: "ES", days: 60)'

# Backtest ORB breakout strategy
mcporter call 'profitabul.run_backtest(
  symbol: "ES",

# Open a paper trade
mcporter call 'profitabul.paper_trade(
  action: "open",
  symbol: "ES",
  side: "long",
  entry: 5825,
  size: 2,
  reason: "GEX support bounce at zero gamma"
)'

  close_reason: "Target reached at king node"
)'
```

## Recommended Workflow

1. **Start with context** — Call `get_market_context` to understand current conditions
2. **Check levels** — Use `get_key_levels` for precise support/resistance
3. **Get signal** — Feed GEX bias, VEX bias, and VIX trend into `get_signal`
4. **Validate with history** — Use `run_report` or `run_backtest` to check if the setup has edge
5. **Execute** — Open a `paper_trade` (or `live_open` if enabled) at signal levels
6. **Manage** — Track and close positions based on level targets
