How a call is graded.

A call exists when the server receives it. The timestamp is ours, not yours — nothing can be backdated.

A market entry must have printed in the last 15 minutes. The price you claim is checked against the reference tape's 1-minute candles for that window, within 0.15% on an exchange feed and 0.5% on a tokenized one. If it never printed, the post is refused.

A limit entry only counts if the market touches it after you post. The minute you posted in is not eligible.

A stop must be beyond the current reference price. A level the market has already passed is not a call.

The posting minute never triggers. That candle holds prices from before your call, and nothing inside a one-minute bar can be put in order.

A level arms from the next full minute after it was declared. Same rule for the posted call and for anything added later, so no level can govern a minute it did not fully precede.

The stop is checked first, always. If a stop and a target were both touched in one candle, the stop wins and takes the whole remaining position.

After a fill, your stop applies in that same candle; targets only from the next. A position is protected the moment it exists, and cannot be paid out of a bar it only half lived in.

A stop the market had already gone through fills at that candle's open. The open is a price that really printed; your level, in that minute, was not. A gap books the worse, honest number.

A target fills at the level you declared, and a wick past it earns nothing extra. Where several targets are touched in one candle, each fills in turn, nearest to entry first.

One trade, one tape. Every call is pinned at post time to a single reference venue — the listing exchange, or a verified 24/7 tokenized feed — and entry checks, grading, live prices and exits all read that one venue for the trade's whole life.

A tape that returns nothing is broken, not quiet. While a round-the-clock feed has a hole, the trade is not graded and its creator cannot close or cancel it.

A stop may only move toward your entry. Widening one is refused, and so is removing it. Moving it past entry, into profit, is ordinary trade management and is allowed.

Nothing is ever overwritten. A change is a new timestamped line; the level you posted stays on the record beside the level in force.

In the minute you move a stop, both stops are live, and the worse one for you wins. Targets are the opposite: the ladder you had governs that whole minute, and the new one arms after it.

We verify prices, not executions. Your entry and any manual exit are self-reported and checked against the tape; nobody here can see your broker.

Fees, funding and slippage are not modelled. Every leveraged figure on this site is therefore a little kinder than the same trade in a real account.
