Questions worth asking before you pay anybody

Every page here is written so it can be run against any trading community, this one included. No other service is named and nothing is ranked — the point is to leave you able to judge for yourself, which is the only version of this worth publishing.

How to verify a crypto signal track record

Seven checks: what is actually in the denominator, what a “win” has been defined as, whether the unit is honest, whether the record predates the outcome, picking the trade yourself, recomputing the summary from the rows, and what it costs to actually follow.

Why none of these rank anybody

We sell a trading community. Any list we published of the best trading communities would have us near the top of it, and you would be right to ignore the whole thing on that basis alone — which is what most people already do with those lists, correctly.

So these pages give you the criteria instead, in a form you can put to anybody as a question. That is worth more to you and it is the only thing we are actually in a position to offer honestly. Where our own answer to a check appears, it is a link to a page you can open rather than a claim you have to accept, and where we cannot answer one yet the page says so.

If what you want is the specific question of whether to trust this site, that has its own page — including the part about what we cannot prove.

Education, not advice. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell anything, and every example is one trade rather than a rule.
