Frequently asked questions

It scans a defined universe of US large caps, small-cap 'hype' names, EU listings and crypto majors, then combines price structure, momentum, volume, news flow and sentiment into a written thesis with an entry zone, a target and a stop-loss.

Everything it publishes is research and education. It is not a broker, does not hold money and never places a real trade on your behalf.

Five stages: a universe scan, a technical layer computed from raw candles, a context layer summarising news and catalysts, a reasoning layer where two independent frontier models review the same evidence pack, and a confluence score that collapses it all into a single 0–10 number.

Only setups clearing the conviction gate — model confidence of at least 72% and reward-to-risk of at least 1.8:1 against the buy zone — are published as actionable. The rest are shown as watch-only.

An autonomous paper-trading account that takes the signals clearing the conviction gate and manages them to target, stop or timeframe expiry. Every entry is written to the public record when it happens, with its target and stop visible from the start.

Nothing is deleted, re-dated or quietly re-graded afterwards. Losing trades stay on the record.

No. ATLAS and every user portfolio are simulated. Paper fills assume the quoted price, which excludes slippage, spread, commissions and taxes — real-world results are always somewhat worse than simulated ones.

The settled record is published in full and updated as positions close; you can read every trade rather than take a headline number on trust.

No scanner predicts markets reliably. Models are probabilistic, a high confidence score is not a guarantee, quotes can be delayed, and thin small caps can gap straight past a stop-loss.

Price and volume from public market-data endpoints (Yahoo Finance), headlines from mainstream financial and crypto-native press, aggregate sentiment from public chatter and news tone, and fundamentals from publicly filed figures where the provider supplies them.

Quotes are delayed for most venues and are never presented as real-time execution prices.

Free access covers the daily pick, the full bot track record, the community ledger, all guides and tools, and a limited number of deep scans restricted to megacaps and crypto majors.

Pro removes the scan limit, opens the full scanning universe including small caps and EU listings, and unlocks the complete signal detail on the terminal.

You can read the picks, the track record and every guide without signing in. An account is needed for paper trading, favourites, XP and levels, and for email alerts when ATLAS opens or closes a position.

XP comes from your own manual paper trades and from daily login streaks. It measures activity and discipline, not skill.

User progression and the bot's record are strictly separate: ATLAS trades never affect your XP, and your trades never affect the bot's statistics.

Yes. Crypto majors are scanned around the clock, and EU listings are scanned around the European session. US scans run shortly after the opening auction.

Signed-in users can receive an email when ATLAS opens or closes a position, and a morning brief summarising the day's setups. Both can be turned off from your profile or the unsubscribe link in any email.

An optional Pro subscription and display advertising on public pages. Advertisers have no influence over which tickers the scanner surfaces, what a guide says or how a trade is graded. We do not sell leads or personal data.

No. SIGNAL9 is not a broker, not a licensed investment adviser and not a fund, and it never publishes personalised advice. Every output is general information produced by software and it can be wrong.
