Most signal channels publish the outcome first and the accounting rules later—if they publish them at all. We do the reverse.
Our historical database contains signal ideas, not exchange statements. For that reason, the public performance page describes the result as modeled gross signal points. It is not account return. It does not include position sizing, fees, funding, slippage or the path taken between targets.
What is counted
A signal enters the monthly sample only after it is closed. Each take-profit level carries a fixed share of the modeled position: 20%, 30%, 30% and 20%. If a stop is reached after partial targets, the remaining share is closed at that stop in the model. Cancelled and missed setups stay in the audit trail but do not become wins or losses.
What is not claimed
Adding leveraged percentages across independent signals does not describe the growth of a real account. Capital may overlap, execution prices differ and every trader manages risk differently. We therefore show the sample size, positive-result rate and the basis of the calculation together.
Why the distinction matters
Transparent language can make a headline number look less dramatic. That is useful. The objective is to understand whether the research process is improving—not to manufacture a perfect equity curve.
The next stage is exchange-linked reconciliation. Once executions, commissions and funding are available, realized net P&L will be reported as a separate metric rather than blended with the historical model.
