Every number on this site begins as a trade on an exchange and reaches the screen automatically — through the exchange API, with the exchange's own timestamp. Below: the full path, independent sources to cross-check, and what each metric means. Read, cross-check, decide.
Four steps from a trade to the screen, each of them automatic.
The algorithm opens and closes positions on the exchange account. The exchange records every execution itself — price, size, fee, time. That is the primary record, and it lives with the exchange.
The server reads statistics with a key that holds a single permission — to read: trades, positions, balance. The algorithms trade on their own keys, and withdrawals remain the account owner's right alone.
Once a minute the server requests new executions and the state of open positions from the exchange, groups executions into cycles and calculates the result after fees. Every record is stored with the exchange's timestamp.
Metrics, charts and the activity feed are built from those records and update in real time, like the metrics strip on the homepage. The same records feed the weekly reports.
Every strategy has a source outside this site where the same trades are visible independently of us.
Trade log on TraderMake.Money: it covers the strategy's largest accounts — the bulk of its capital; the service receives data straight from the exchange API with its own key — bypassing us.
Copy-trading page on BingX: the strategy's statistics are kept by the exchange itself.
Copy-trading pages on Binance, BingX and Bybit — statistics kept by the exchanges themselves; plus closed-cycle replays on YouTube with entry and exit prices.
Five cross-checks against sources run by exchanges and third-party services. A browser is all you need.
The same definitions apply on the site, in the reports and in the client portal.
The platform's cycle strategies — GT-RFT and RFT Buy/Sell Levels — close a position when the target from the weighted-average entry price is reached, and meet a move against the position with add-ons. So a closed cycle is almost always a plus, while a loss, for as long as it exists, lives in open positions as the unrealized result — and may stay there for weeks. That is how the design works, and that is how it is shown on the site: the win rate stands next to the unrealized result and the drawdown, and all trades are published, including losing ones. In an extreme scenario — a prolonged trend against the position, a loss of liquidity, a delisting — a cycle may close at a loss, and then it enters the statistics as a losing one. The honest reading of a strategy is all three numbers at once, over the long run.
All funds on all of the strategy's accounts by exchange data — the account balances at the current moment. The current plus or minus of open positions is shown separately, as the unrealized result: 10,000 on the account, open positions at minus 2,000 — capital 10,000, with an unrealized result of −2,000 next to it. Calculated the same way for every strategy — on the site, in the reports and in the client portal.
A position from the first entry to the full close, including every add-on. The result is counted once — at the close; while the position is open, its result lives in the unrealized figure.
The sum of results of cycles closed within the selected period, after exchange fees. Funding is calculated and shown as a separate line.
The current plus or minus of open positions at market price. It changes with every update and becomes realized only at the close. Read it next to the win rate — they are two halves of one picture.
The share of closed cycles with a positive result. For cycle strategies it is almost always high by design — a position closes when its target is reached — so on its own this figure says little. Read it together with the unrealized result and the drawdown.
Exchange execution fees on every trade of a cycle. They are already deducted from PnL and shown as a separate total, so the costs stay in view.
Periodic payments between long and short holders on perpetual futures, charged or credited by the exchange while a position is open. Shown on the site as a separate line.
The largest decline of the cumulative result of closed cycles from a peak to the following low within the period. It is the depth of the worst stretch — a measure of what had to be sat through.
The sum of results of profitable cycles divided by the sum of losses of losing cycles. Above one, profit outweighs losses. When a period has zero losing cycles, the denominator is empty and the site shows a label instead of a number.
The number of days since the strategy's first trade on live capital. It grows every day and shows the distance over which the statistics were collected.
Other parties keep them too. The exchange holds the primary record of every execution, an independent log reads it with its own key, copy-trading pages are calculated by the exchange itself, and the weekly reports go out with dates. Any number on this site can be cross-checked against at least one source outside it — the steps are above.
In open positions — as the unrealized result. Cycle strategies close a position when its target is reached, so closed cycles are almost always positive and the minus waits in open positions; on the site it stands right next to the win rate. The details are in the result profile above.
The site and the log cover different sets of accounts: the log keeps the strategy's largest accounts, the site counts all of them — so the total and the cycle count on the site are larger. What should match are the trades themselves: instruments, direction, entry and exit times. Small differences in amounts for the same trades come from period boundaries, the treatment of fees and funding, and rounding: the site shows PnL after fees with funding on a separate line, while other services may add things up differently. If a difference is larger than that explains — write to us, and we will go through it trade by trade.
Exactly what they describe: the past. That is why drawdown and the unrealized result stand next to profit on this site, and all trades are published, including losing ones. Judge over the long run, and read the Risk Disclosure page before any decision.
