Proof of Trade

Note: Proof of Trade is due to be released in Q3 2024

Proof of Trade is proof that a real trade took place at a brokerage or exchange.

The trade is taken as a signal and the price used is that at which it was executed. No information that would divulge the creator's financial situation is extracted, including the quantity or position value.

This will be expanded in time (Q3 '24) to include percentage allocations (including as part of a wider portfolio or rebalance strategy).

Proof of Trade allows historical trades to be proven and used within a strategy. As long as the data can be requested from the brokerage or exchange (via API) there is no limit on how old a trade can be.

Note that a smart contracts and Oracle type services are used to request data on behalf of the creator, from brokerages/exchanges. Neither the credentials nor the request or response data are returned

There are several restrictions which should be noted:

• A strategy can only include either ideas of a single type i.e. Proof of Idea or Proof of Trade

• A strategy containing Proof of Trade Ideas must all come a single brokerage/exchange. If you change your brokerage/exchange, the a new strategy must be started.

• Older or newer trades can be added at any time and as far back as possible, however the trade added must always n+1 or n-1. This means there can not be any gaps between trades.
