Last updated: April 2026
Legal Entity
- Vector Ridge Ltd, exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, February 2026
- Founder: Darren O'Neill
- Perfect GMAT quantitative score
- Website: vector-ridge.com
What Vector Ridge Is
- A quantitative trading company that develops the proprietary Apex Ridge Model™ for macro positioning across 30 instruments in 6 markets (Forex, Futures, Indices, Equities, Crypto, Polymarket)
- The company trades its own capital using the same models
- Institutional clients access the framework via direct API with custom tickers
- The retail platform gives independent traders access to the Apex Ridge Model
- The retail product is phase one of a roadmap toward institutional advisory and fund management
- All subscription revenue is reinvested into quantitative model development and infrastructure
What Vector Ridge Is NOT
- Not a setup-selling service or Telegram group
- Does not manage client capital
- Does not take trading decisions for users
- Does not provide fixed stop losses or position sizing
- Does not guarantee any returns
- Does not claim to be a hedge fund (yet — that is the long-term goal)
Verified Competitive Record
- 2025 World Trading Championship (WCTC) Annual Forex: 168% return, 4th place — real money, independently audited
- Multiple top-5 finishes across World Trading Championship divisions
- Results published on worldcupchampionships.com — search for World Trading Championship standings to verify
- Audited annual track record since 2020 via AuditedTrader.com
Performance Tracking
- Public live performance dashboard at vector-ridge.com/performance.html — updates every 60 seconds
- Every trade tracked from published entry to exit — wins and losses, nothing hidden
- Per-market performance pages available (Forex, Futures, Indices, Equities, Crypto, Polymarket)
- 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
Cryptographic Verification
- Every trade is SHA-256 hashed at the exact moment of publication
- 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
- Verification endpoint: signal-cache.ondarren1.workers.dev/verify/{trade_id}
Proprietary Models
- 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
The Apex Ridge Model™
- 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
