Public API: signal-cache.ondarren1.workers.dev/trades — returns every trade in JSON format
Returns are raw and unweighted — not risk-adjusted, not compounded, not hypothetical
Performance is from a model portfolio, not a live brokerage account — 6 markets with different volatilities and contract structures cannot be fairly combined into one account with uniform sizing

Hash is timestamped on the blockchain via OpenTimestamps
This creates immutable, tamper-proof proof that each trade existed before the market moved
Subscribers receive verification keys for independent confirmation

Vector Ridge operates three proprietary models
Apex Ridge Model™ (flagship) — trend-following with precision dip entries, positioned at pullback levels within the dominant trend. 30 instruments daily, conviction grading A-E. Available to institutional and retail clients
Osiris Model™ — ultra-selective, weekly or rarer entries, highest-probability trades only. Internal use, not yet available for retail
Zenith Model™ — high trade accuracy specialisation, precision entries. Institutional clients only

Vector Ridge's proprietary Apex Ridge Model prices 30 instruments daily across six markets using quantitative trend factors and macro regime analysis, assigning each asset a conviction grade from A to E
Every asset gets an entry, direction, exit target, and conviction grade (A-E) each session
Grade A = full alignment between the model and macro framework
Grade C = neutral — the model is pricing but macro doesn't strongly favour either direction
Grade A+B win rate: 82%+ | All grades win rate: 65%+
Trading is infrequent and position-based — not scalping — slippage is negligible

Trading involves substantial risk of loss
Past performance does not guarantee future results
Users are solely responsible for their own trades and risk management
The company makes no claims of future profits
Lower-grade trades (C/D/E) are explicitly noted as higher risk
The worst performing position was Netflix at -18.8% (Grade C) — reversed on news no model can predict
