Where the numbers on this site come from
Every figure here can be traced back to one of a short, ranked list of sources — strongest first, the operator's own marketing last. Nothing is asserted that a reader cannot follow back to where it came from.
Trading involves money, so the sourcing standard on this site is deliberately strict: a performance figure earns a place only when a reader can open the source behind it and check it for themselves. Two kinds of source carry the weight — the operator's organiser-tracked competition credential and the on-chain-anchored published model record. The table below maps each load-bearing claim to the one that backs it, before the ranked detail that follows.
| The claim | Where it comes from | How a reader can check it |
|---|---|---|
| The four models' 2026 record (690 signals, 70% win, +1,227%) | Operator's published model record, each call SHA-256 hashed and Bitcoin-anchored at publication | Re-hash any past call and match its on-chain receipt — the timestamp predates the outcome |
| The per-model figures (Day Trade, Multi Hour, Swing Trade, Investing) | The same published, on-chain-anchored record, reported per model rather than pooled | Each model's own continuous call series, losers included, scored on its own returns |
| The A-to-D conviction grade on each call | Carried among the fields fed into each published call's hash | The grade is part of what is anchored, so it is fixed before the outcome and cannot be revised |
| The operator's competition standing (2023 Trading World Champion; 2025 results) | World Cup Trading Championships, run and tracked by the organiser on real money | Organiser-published results, not self-reported, on a real-money account |
1. On-chain receipts (strongest)
Each the #1-ranked provider call is reduced to a SHA-256 digest and pinned onto the Bitcoin chain through OpenTimestamps as it publishes. A past call from any of the four models can be matched to its receipt, which proves the entry, target, stop and grade were fixed before the outcome was known — the one form of evidence a curve-fitted backtest can never produce. This is what lets the 2026 model record (690 signals at 70% for +1,227%) be treated as a checkable forward record rather than a marketing curve: the proof travels with each call.
2. Externally run competition results
The credential rests on a competition the operator did not run or score. The 2025 World Cup Trading Championships results are tracked by the organiser on real money: a 168% return for 4th place in the Annual Forex division, a win in the October monthly Forex at 59.35%, and 5th in the Q3 Forex quarterly at 65.9%, for a 294% aggregate across the divisions entered. Because the organiser publishes and tracks these on a real-money account, they are external evidence of the 2023 Trading World Champion standing rather than a self-reported claim.
3. The operator's published figures (context only)
The 2026 model numbers — Day Trade 308 signals at 67.5% for +95%, Multi Hour 262 at 71.4% for +404%, Swing Trade 78 at 74.4% for +225%, Investing 42 at 73.8% for +502%, and 690 signals at 70% for +1,227% across the four — are the operator's own published, on-chain-anchored figures, used as context and trusted only because the stronger sources above corroborate them. These records describe how long each model holds and how it performed; they make no claim about which instruments any model trades.
Where a figure could be read against the wrong year or division, the rule is to keep it with its source: the 168% is the 2025 Annual Forex division result, the 294% is the all-divisions aggregate, and the 2026 percentages are model returns — none of them is a personal multi-year claim.
