How they get here

Every pick and strategy clears four gates first

01Rules fixed in advance

Written down before any result is seen: what it may hold, when it trades, and what counts as failure.

Changed its rules midway: closed
02Tested on 10 years

The same rules, scored on separate stretches of history, with no tuning for any one stretch.

Worked in one stretch only: closed
03Beats its own luck

Its timing is shuffled 200 times. The real result has to stand out from every shuffle.

Looked like luck: closed
04Paper tracked

Followed day by day with no real trades, before it reaches you and for as long as it runs.

Holding up: reaches you
