FAQ

Everything (journal, paper accounts, chart layouts, portfolio) is stored in your browser's local storage on this device. There's no account and no server of ours involved, so we never see it. Clearing your browser data erases it, so keep backups. We do count anonymous page views; see "Do you use analytics or tracking?".

Only anonymous, cookie-less counts via GoatCounter: which page was viewed, the referring site, screen width, how far pages are scrolled, time on page and clicks on main links. If you arrive through one of our tagged links, we also record that link's tag (only the utm_source, utm_campaign and utm_content values, e.g. "nostr" and "dca") to see which post brought visitors; nothing else from the address is sent. No cookies, no IDs stored in your browser, no ad trackers, and never anything you type: journal, trades, addresses and portfolio stay on your device. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are respected.

Free: Journal → Settings → Move my data exports everything in this browser (journal, paper, charts, portfolio, alerts, Pro license and pending checkout) to a file you can import on getdailyedge.com or another device. Browsers keep each website address separate, so that is how you move from the old nsite address. Pro Backup (JSON) still saves just the journal, rules and settings. Portfolio holdings can also be exported to CSV (Pro). The move file stays on your device.

$9 once, paid in bitcoin. No subscription. It unlocks everything marked PRO: unlimited rules and history, discipline/setup/mood stats, CSV export and backups, themes, all chart indicators and drawings, multi-chart layouts and alerts, 20x paper leverage, multiple paper accounts and challenges, unlimited portfolio holdings and addresses with full history, and extra share-card styles.

See the Plans page (getdailyedge.com/plans/): Free, each paid product and the Everything bundle side by side, with the limits the app actually uses. Every purchase is a one-time bitcoin payment, never a subscription. Daily Edge Pro is $9. The Everything bundle is $22 for the Pro key plus Crypto Backtest Toolkit Pro and the latest Agent-Economy Weekly full edition, $4 less than buying them separately.

Pay the exact sat amount on the shop page. After 1 confirmation a license key appears right on that page, with a button that unlocks the app. The key is checked offline with a signature, with no account and no server.

Open Daily Edge there, go to Journal → Settings, paste the same license key and tap Unlock. It works on all your own devices. Save the key somewhere safe, like a password manager.

Use 'Recover my order' on the shop page with your order ID and claim key, and the key appears again. Then save it somewhere safe, like a password manager. It works on all your devices.

No payment processor and no account for you or us. You pay an exact amount on-chain to the address shown, and the shop's checkout watches the blockchain for it. Always pay the exact amount shown, because the extra sats identify your order. Quotes expire, so pay within the time window.

The core app is free, so try before you buy. Pro sales are final.

No. It's a simulator with virtual money. Prices are live public data, but fills, fees, funding and liquidations are simplified models, and real exchanges behave differently. It's for practice only, not financial advice.

No. Closed paper trades are logged in your journal tagged PAPER, in a separate list. They never count toward your real stats, streaks or check-ins.

Never. Nobody legitimate ever does. The portfolio only takes public addresses, which can't move funds, and it refuses seed phrases and private keys. Balances are fetched straight from your browser to public APIs (mempool.space, blockstream.info, publicnode.com).

Your browser fetches market and balance data directly, with no key and nothing passing through us. Candles and prices come from Coinbase Exchange (Kraken as fallback). The coin ticker on the getdailyedge.com home page also asks Coinbase Exchange for prices, straight from your browser, with no key and no tracking. BTC balances come from mempool.space (blockstream.info as fallback), and ETH and SOL from publicnode.com. News headlines are a separate static feed.json built from free public RSS (title/link/time/source only); see "Where do the News headlines come from?".

Public APIs can rate-limit heavy use. Alerts, paper orders and portfolio snapshots only run while the tab is open. ETH tokens are limited to 10 major ERC-20s, Solana tokens and xpub aren't supported (add them by hand), and coins without a Coinbase USD price count as $0.

Yes, after the first visit: the journal works fully offline, and you can install it with your browser's Install / Add to Home Screen. Charts, paper trading, portfolio balances and the News feed need internet for live data.

Our only payment address is 1MVAKAcfvPNSyxW9Pa7zdn7SQn5xTqhCKu. You can check it three ways: it is in this FAQ; it is in our Nostr profile (npub16lgpp5erwwfrwdur0sjashuessfg28mlf8c0uruq06ah2ag26x5sm7vd7g), which you can look up in any Nostr app or on any relay, independent of this website; and the checkout itself refuses any quote that isn't signed by that shop key or that names a different address. If a page ever shows you another address, don't pay it. Our official web address is getdailyedge.com, which serves the app directly from our nsite. The address npub16lgpp5…7vd7g.nsite.lol is a backup that serves the same site. Saved data stays in the browser at the address where you created it.

The shop's checkout runs on a small machine that isn't always online. Your quote request and, later, your license key travel as encrypted messages through public Nostr relays, which hold them until the checkout is back. The shop page shows when the checkout was last online. Never send bitcoin before you see a quote; once you've paid, your key arrives on the same page after 1 confirmation, sometimes hours later if the checkout was offline. Your order is saved in your browser, so you can close the page and come back.

Yes, if you'd like to: the footer of the shop has a 'Support the project' section with a bitcoin address and QR code (on-chain only). Tips are completely optional and unlock nothing; everything free stays free.

MFE (maximum favourable excursion) is the furthest price moved in your favour while a trade was open; MAE (maximum adverse excursion) is the furthest it moved against you. Enter market, side, entry, exit and when the trade opened and closed (or load a closed Paper trade), and your browser pulls the high and low for that window from public Coinbase candles. Add a stop to see R values and a size to see dollars. 'Kept of best move' is your result divided by MFE. You can also type the high and low yourself. Free reviews one trade at a time plus your last 3 Paper trades in a batch; Pro batches the last 20. Bar data can include a small wick at entry or exit, and it's a review tool, not advice.

Enter side (long or short), entry price, leverage and the USD margin for the position. Liquidation ≈ entry × (1 ∓ 1/leverage ± MMR) with a default maintenance margin of 0.5%. It shows distance to liquidation, max loss (the margin, on isolated), what happens if price moves X% against you, and a table of cushions at common leverages. Same simplified model as Paper trading; real exchanges differ. Free, runs in your browser, saves last inputs on this device. Educational only, not advice.

Enter your account size, how much of it you'll risk (for example 1%), your entry and your stop. Size = amount at risk ÷ (distance to stop + fees per unit). It also shows the margin at your leverage, risk:reward to an optional target and a rough liquidation price, and warns if your stop sits past liquidation. It's free, runs in your browser and saves your last inputs on this device only. It's a calculator, not advice.

Enter your entry, position size in coins, an optional stop, and up to 3 take-profit levels (5 with Pro), each with a price and the % of your starting position to sell there. It shows the P&L and R at each level, the profit if every target hits, the blended exit price, any runner left open, and scenarios for price reaching some targets and then coming back to your stop, or to your entry if you move the stop to breakeven after target 1. Fees are taken off both sides. It runs entirely in your browser; your last plan is saved on this device. It's a planning aid, not advice.

It replays buying a fixed USD amount daily, weekly, every 2 weeks or monthly on real Coinbase daily closing prices, then shows total invested, current value, profit or loss, average cost and how one lump sum on day one would have compared. Free goes back 1 year; Pro goes back 5 years and exports the buys as CSV. Past prices don't predict future returns.

Fear & Greed is the daily Crypto Fear & Greed index from alternative.me. Funding rates come from the public APIs of OKX (perpetual swaps, usually every 8 hours) and Hyperliquid (hourly). Your browser fetches them directly; nothing goes through us. Free shows 30 days of Fear & Greed history, Pro a full year. They describe market mood and positioning, not where prices will go.

No. There's no server, so alerts run only while the Price alerts tab is open (in the background is fine). Prices are checked every 30 seconds from Coinbase. When one fires you get a sound, a message on the page, a log entry and, if you allowed it, a browser notification. Free: up to 3 active alerts. Pro: unlimited alerts and repeating alerts.

Pro can download a CSV of every closed trade (date, real or paper, symbol, side, setup, realized P&L, R, leverage, note) plus monthly and per-symbol totals from Tools → Review & P&L export. The numbers are exactly what you logged, so they're only as complete as your journal. It isn't tax advice and doesn't work out cost basis, lots or tax rules for your country. Paper trades are simulated and aren't real gains or losses. Give the file to your accountant or tax software.

Yes, from a CSV file, with no API keys or logins. Export your trade history as CSV (Coinbase transaction history or Advanced fills, Kraken trades.csv, Binance spot Trade History), open Tools → CSV import and choose the file. It's read in your browser and never uploaded. Buys and sells are matched first-in, first-out into closed long trades with fees and P&L, and you see a preview before anything is added. Imported trades land on the day they closed with your setup tag and a note; re-importing the same file adds nothing twice. Spot only (no futures or margin). Free imports the newest 25 trades per file, Pro all of them. It's a journal record, not tax software or advice.

On the Journal's Today tab you can set a max loss per day and a max number of trades per day. Both are optional. As you log real trades, the Trades card shows where you stand (for example 2 of 3 trades, -$30 with a -$50 max loss), warns you when you're close and turns red with a stop message once a limit is reached. If you log another trade after that, the day counts as a broken limit. Stats → Daily limits kept shows on how many trading days you stayed inside your limits; Pro also compares your average P&L on those days with the days you broke one. Paper trades never count. Each day remembers the limits you had set that day. It's a discipline tool, not advice, and nothing leaves your browser.

A calendar of your daily net P&L (green gains, red losses, darker for bigger days), plus results by weekday and by symbol, for real trades, paper trades or both. Free shows the last 12 weeks, Pro a full year. It all runs on this device from your journal.

Yes. Tap 'Try Pro free for 7 days' (in Journal → Settings or on any Pro note). It unlocks every Pro feature on this device for 7 days with no payment and no sign-up; a small badge shows the days left. When the trial ends nothing is deleted, Pro-only features simply go back to the free limits, and you can keep Pro for $9 once, paid in bitcoin.

A static feed file (feed.json) is built from free public RSS sources such as CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, Decrypt, Bitcoin.com News, The Block and Crypto.News. We store only title, link, time, source and coin tags — not full articles. Your browser loads that file from our site and filters it to your Charts watchlist. Tap a headline to open the publisher. There is no X/Twitter feed. Headlines are third-party text, not ours, and not financial advice.

No. It's a journal and a practice tool. It only shows statistics of what you logged or simulated.
