# Data Stream Monitor

The Data Stream Monitor captures and streams all model input data for analysis, snapshots, and replay. It is now fully managed by the `TradingOrchestrator` and starts automatically with the dashboard.

## Quick Start

```bash
# Start the dashboard (starts the data stream automatically)
python run_clean_dashboard.py
```

## Status

The orchestrator manages the data stream. You can check status in the dashboard logs; you should see a line like:

```
INFO - Data stream monitor initialized and started by orchestrator
```

## What it Collects

- OHLCV data (1m, 5m, 15m)
- Tick data
- COB (order book) features (when available)
- Technical indicators
- Model states and predictions
- Training experiences for RL

## Snapshots

Snapshots are saved from within the running system when needed. The monitor API provides `save_snapshot(filepath)` if you call it programmatically.

## Notes

- No separate process or control script is required.
- The monitor runs inside the dashboard/orchestrator process for consistency.
