Question 1

Is Opentrades financial advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Opentrades is informational and educational only. We are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial planner, and nothing on the Service is a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security. All returns shown are hypothetical, simulated against public posts. Past performance. Real or simulated. Does not predict future results. Always consult a qualified professional before making any financial decision.

Question 2

Where does Opentrades's data come from?

Accepted Answer

Public posts on X (Twitter) that include cashtags (e.g. $NVDA), pulled via the X API. We classify each post's sentiment with Claude Haiku 4.5, then run a $1,000-per-call backtest against publicly available end-of-day prices. Nothing is scraped from private accounts, DMs, or paid groups.

Question 3

How are stock-picker returns calculated on Opentrades?

Accepted Answer

Each bullish call opens a hypothetical $1,000 long; each bearish call opens a hypothetical $1,000 short, both at the closing price on the tweet date. Positions mark to today's close. We exclude commissions, slippage, taxes, dividends, and borrow costs. meaning real-world execution would not match these numbers.

Question 4

What is a Opentrades risk score?

Accepted Answer

A weighted 0–100 composite of four signals: win rate (share of directional calls that finished green), concentration (how much of the picker's history sits in their top ticker), account age (anchored on X account creation date), and outlier dependency (how much of their gain comes from a single name). Each profile shows which signals fired so you can decide for yourself.

Question 5

Can I look up my own X account on Opentrades?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Paste any public X handle. Including your own. And we'll generate the same report. If you'd rather not appear on the Service, email privacy@opentrades.com from the account in question and we'll remove the cached profile.

Question 6
