Methodology

How returns, scores and verification are computed. Score method v1, matching method match-v2.

Call return

Return = (close price − reference entry) ÷ reference entry. The reference entry is the market price recorded at publication when a provider is configured, otherwise the entry price the trader typed. Calls are spot long recommendations; no leverage is modelled.

A return is market-priced only when both the publication price and the close price came from the market data provider. All other returns are self-reported and are excluded from scores.

Reputation score

Computed only from market-priced finalized calls, and only once a trader has at least 10. Below that the profile shows “insufficient data” and the trader is not ranked.

  • Win rate and average return are shrunk toward 50% and 0% by adding 10 neutral pseudo-calls, so a short lucky streak cannot dominate.
  • Max drawdown is the worst peak-to-trough fall when every call is taken in order with equal, compounded size.
  • Score = 100 × (0.45 × shrunk win rate + 0.35 × (shrunk average return clamped to ±50%, shifted to 0–1) + 0.20 × (1 − max drawdown)).
  • Subscriber count and price never enter the score.

Wallet verification

When indexing is enabled, simple swaps from the trader’s verified wallet are stored and matched to calls on the same token:

  • Entry: buys within 24 hours after publication (and before close).
  • Exit: sells after the first entry, up to 7 days after close, capped at the entry size.
  • Matched: exits cover at least 95% of the entry and both legs use the same quote asset. The realized return is volume-weighted.
  • Partial, pending, unmatched and ambiguous (overlapping calls on the same token) are shown as such. Buys in the 24 hours before publication are recorded as evidence.

Wallet-verified results are shown next to the theoretical return, never merged with it. Addresses and signatures are visible only to the trader.

Limits

A trader can hold positions in wallets they have not verified, so “unmatched” does not prove the trader did not trade. Token existence on Solana says nothing about a token’s safety. Calls are opinions, not financial advice.
