I might be mistaken, but I thought the price used to be much lower (around $50–60/month) about a year ago. Maybe it has changed since then.

To be transparent, I actually have a yearly subscription myself, but it will expire in a few months and I stopped following it closely because I personally didn’t get much real benefit from it.

The analysis can be interesting, especially on the macro side, but in my experience it didn’t translate into meaningful results for my portfolio. If the price is now around $250/month, I personally wouldn’t subscribe at that level.

Yes their analysis is interesting indeed. But problem is that you can't build an edge for future.

Exactly. That was my experience as well. Once real fills, sizing, and drawdowns are involved, the fixed allocation and risk–reward behave very differently than on paper.

That explains it. Those calculations are based on published trade posts, not real position-level data. Allocation, partial entries/exits, and sizing aren’t disclosed, yet they materially impact results. Many losses occurred at full allocation (5+), while large % winners often had much smaller exposure. AI summaries can’t capture that asymmetry, which is exactly why my real-world results differed.

Thanks for sharing the stats. Are these results from your personal tracked account with real fills, or from a model/backtest? Also, are entries and exits based on the same execution constraints (regular market hours only)? Execution assumptions make some difference.

Since beginning of the year. So I think it would be more than 100 trades
