Questions,
answered plainly.

What you get, what you don’t, and what to check before you subscribe.

What you receive

What exactly lands in my inbox?

A short mail containing the signal — long, short or flat — and the market-state reading behind it. No dashboard to learn and no platform to run.

Does it only trade long?

No. The engine takes long and short positions, and sits flat when neither is warranted. Standing aside is a call in its own right — the engine spends much of its time out of the market.

How often do signals arrive?

Only when the engine acts. There is no fixed daily or weekly mail, and quiet periods are normal — they reflect the engine being flat rather than anything being wrong.

Do I get access to the Lab itself?

Not on the Signal Service or the Professional Signal Feed — both are output only, and the engine stays closed. Running the Lab yourself, with full access to all settings and the ability to load your own systems, is the Full Lab Licence.

Delivery and timing

When are signals sent?

Professional Signal Feed subscribers are served first. The Signal Service goes out afterwards. Timing is not guaranteed and can vary — delivery is made on a reasonable-efforts basis.

What if a mail arrives late, or not at all?

Mail can be delayed, filtered, or fail for reasons outside our control. A missed or late signal does not give rise to a claim for trading losses or missed gains. If mail is not arriving, check your spam folder first and then contact us.

Why is the professional feed served first?

It is the higher tier and is priced accordingly, at $50,000 per year and limited to ten firms worldwide. Order of delivery is one of the things that separates the two products.

Can I actually trade it?

Worth checking before you subscribe, because it decides whether the signals are usable to you at all.

Access to financial instruments depends on where you live and who you bank with. An instrument referenced by the Services may not be available to you, even where it is freely traded elsewhere.

Why is access restricted?

Many jurisdictions restrict which instruments may be sold to retail investors — usually because a required disclosure document has not been filed for that market, not because of any judgement about the instrument itself. Broker policy, account type and investor classification add further limits.

Can I just trade a similar instrument instead?

A substitute is not a solution. The engine works on thin margins computed from the exact instrument’s data. Even a close tracker of the same market prints different prices — different spreads, different fills, different dividend handling, small tracking differences that compound. Those differences are the same size as the edge itself, so the entry and exit economics a signal was derived from do not carry across. Trading a substitute is trading a different instrument, and the published record does not describe it.

What does carry across is direction. If you cannot access the instrument referenced, the signal is still usable as guidance on the trend of the market — whether the engine reads it as risk-on, risk-off, or not worth holding. That is real information, and many subscribers use it exactly that way. What you should not expect is that acting on it through another instrument reproduces the numbers on this site.

We do not advise on this, do not assess your eligibility, and do not sell any instrument. Please confirm with your own broker that you are able to trade the instruments referenced, or a suitable equivalent, before subscribing.

What we do not do

Will you tell me what to do with my account?

We cannot — and it is worth explaining why, because it is not reluctance on our part.

Publishing the same analysis to everybody is publishing. Applying it to your account, capital, holdings, leverage or tax position is investment advice, and in most countries that is a licensed activity. Firms that give it must be authorised by a regulator, hold capital, follow suitability rules and answer to a compliance regime. We are not licensed to do that anywhere, so the moment we told you what to do with your money we would be breaking the law — and you would be relying on advice from someone with no authorisation behind it.

So the line is not about willingness. Ask what a signal states, how the engine works, or what a figure means, and we will answer in full. Ask what you should do with it, and the answer has to come from you or from someone licensed in your jurisdiction to give it.

Is this personalised investment advice?

No. The Services are a publication. Every subscriber at a given tier receives the same output at the same time, and nothing is tailored to any individual. We do not collect or consider your portfolio, objectives, or circumstances, and we are not able to.

Do you manage money or place trades?

No. We hold no client funds, have no discretion over any account, and place no orders. We receive no commission or share of your results — the subscription or licence fee is the only payment.

The numbers

Are the published figures real trading results?

No. They are backtested and hypothetical. They were not achieved by any investor and exclude real-world effects such as slippage, missed fills, commissions, financing costs and taxes. Actual results will differ, possibly materially.

Why do the figures change?

The engine is refined over time and the record extends as new data arrives, so published figures are a snapshot rather than a fixed track record. They may be restated downward as well as upward, and are not independently audited.

Could the drawdown be worse than −27%?

Yes. The figure shown is a historical simulation value. A future drawdown may be larger and may last longer.

Subscription and billing

Can I cancel?

Yes. Monthly subscriptions continue until cancelled and can be cancelled at any time, taking effect at the end of the paid period. Annual licences run for their stated term.

Do you offer refunds?

Fees already paid are non-refundable except where a refund is required by applicable law. Being unable to trade a referenced instrument in your jurisdiction is not grounds for a refund — which is why we ask you to check with your broker first.

Can I share or resell the signals?

No. Subscriptions and licences are personal and non-transferable. Output may not be redistributed, resold, republished, or used to operate a competing service, managed account or fund without prior written permission.

Still unanswered?
