Frequently asked questions

The basics about FAR, the track record, Operator Access, and how to reach a human.

The basics

What is FAR Action Radar?
An algorithmic research feed that publishes one gold read per trading day. Every call goes onto a public track record the moment it's emitted, win or lose.
Is FAR a trading service or signal provider?
No. FAR publishes algorithmic outputs as research. It doesn’t place trades, hold funds, or recommend any position. See Terms of Use.
Is this investment advice?
No. FAR is research, not advice. The operator is not a licensed investment adviser. See Risk Disclosure.
Who's behind FAR?
An independent operator runs FAR as a research project. Identity is disclosed only as required by applicable law.
Why isn't FAR available in the US?
US securities and advisory rules require licensed infrastructure FAR doesn't have today. We may revisit once we can afford the legal work.

Using the Service

How often does the algorithm publish?
One canonical call per UTC trading day, refined hourly. Weekends are filtered out before they reach the site.
What's the Track Record?
The public log of every published call with its outcome once resolved. No curation, no edits, no removal of misses. The hit rate updates automatically. See Track Record.
Can I use FAR without trading?
Yes. Plenty of readers use FAR as a daily check on the gold tape without ever placing a trade.

Trust and accuracy

How is the hit rate calculated?
Across all resolved outputs, including misses. No cherry-picking, no removal of underperforming calls. Pending outputs are excluded. See Methodology.
What happens when the algorithm is wrong?
A missed call is logged on the track record the same way a hit is. The hit rate moves accordingly. See Methodology.
Does past performance predict future results?
No. Past algorithm performance does not predict future performance. See Risk Disclosure.

Operator Access

What is Operator Access?
The early-access tier for Pro features. Currently waitlist-gated.
When does Pro launch?
Production begins when the waitlist passes 1,000. Join the list to bring that day forward.

Privacy

What data do you collect?
The minimum needed to run the site: email plus experience level for waitlist signup, message content if you contact support, and server logs. See Privacy Policy.
Do you sell my data?
No. FAR does not sell personal information and does not share it for advertising. See Privacy Policy.

Personalized trading advice

Whether you should trust an algorithm output

That decision is yours. The track record is published openly so you can evaluate accuracy yourself.

If you have a question about your broker, account, or execution, contact your broker directly.

Investment, tax, or legal advice
