Choosing Nova, Apex, or Quantum for chart analysis
What each Analyst model is for, how credits work on Pro, and when a deeper read is worth the pack — without treating any of them as signals.

Three speeds of the same job
Nova is the default chart reader on Lite and above — structure, levels, and risk-framed scenarios from a screenshot or setup note.
Apex and Quantum are premium models on Pro and Elite. They cost Apex/Quantum credits from your pack, not your monthly Nova chat allowance. Use them when the chart is messy, multi-timeframe, or you want a second pass — not for every scalp.
Credits vs monthly chats
Lite’s monthly chats and chart uploads are the Nova lane. Apex and Quantum packs are separate and only unlock on Pro+.
If a premium run fails, check that you still have credits and that the model picker actually selected Apex or Quantum — the UI should not clip the menu behind the card.
Still not a signal
Every model can return WAIT. Treat the output as prep for your playbook: invalidation, size from risk %, then journal what you actually did.
