Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no subscription or paid tier. The developer can receive part of the trading fee you already pay through exchange broker programs — details on How it works.
Does the program need withdrawal permission?
No. Create the key with futures trading only and keep withdrawals disabled. If the exchange allows it, restrict the key to your PC's IP address.
Can I lose money?
Yes. Leveraged futures can lose your entire capital, and there is no stop-loss by default. Start in Shadow Mode and only use money you can afford to lose.
Can I try it without an exchange account or API key?
Shadow Mode runs the strategies on live prices with a virtual balance. To place real orders you need an account and an API key.
Which systems does it run on?
Windows and macOS. Android is on hold and there is no iOS version. Your computer has to stay on while it trades.
Why does Windows or macOS warn me when I open it?
The program is made by an individual developer and is not signed with a paid code-signing certificate, so the operating system cannot verify the publisher. The download page shows how to open it and how to check the file's SHA-256 checksum.
What do the live figures on this site mean?
They come from one real Binance account: hourly screenshots of its dashboard and figures computed from its own trade records (closed trades plus funding fees, open positions excluded). With no stop-loss by default, a losing position stays open instead of being closed, so it appears on the open-positions screenshot, not in the figures. One account over a limited period is the whole sample.
Is there a backtest?
Not at the moment. An earlier backtest was withdrawn after a counting error was found. A new one will be shown only after verification, separately from live records.
How is copy trading different from the program?
Copy trading runs on the exchange's page and nothing is installed. Your result differs from the leader's. Bitget and Bybit profiles are listed on the copy-trading page; Binance and OKX are preparing.
Where do I ask questions?
By email at support@javidtrading.com, in the Telegram community, or on the community board.
