Hermēs DocumentationReading Checks & Exercises
From Panels to a Checkable Read
Use existing HermesGEX panels to verify definitions, observe structure and practice with replay.
Establish what you are looking at before interpreting it. These exercises use the chart, options desk, correlation matrix and replay. Consult each feature guide and your account for availability.
