Third-Party Verification
Independent methods to verify our trading performance
We believe in transparency. Below are multiple independent ways you can verify our trading performance without relying solely on this self-reported analysis.
FX Blue Verified Track Record
Our live trading account is connected to FX Blue, an independent third-party verification service that automatically logs all trades directly from the broker. This cannot be manipulated.
- Real-time trade verification
- Independent server logging
- Tamper-proof history
- Performance analytics
Download Raw Trade Data
Download complete trade history in CSV format. Import into Excel, Python, or any analysis tool to conduct your own independent verification.
- All 820+ trades with timestamps
- Entry/exit prices and P/L
- Commission and swap details
- Standard CSV format
Broker Statement Request
Serious investors can request official broker statements directly from our regulated broker. These statements are generated by the broker, not by us.

Risk Management Audit
Evaluation of risk controls and drawdown management
PMTS implements a multi-layered risk management framework designed to protect capital while maximizing risk-adjusted returns. The audit evaluated position sizing algorithms, stop-loss mechanisms, and portfolio-level risk controls.
5.1 Risk Control Mechanisms
-
Dynamic Position SizingPosition sizes automatically adjust based on account equity, volatility, and signal confidence. Verified algorithm correctly implements Kelly Criterion modifications.
-
Multi-Layer Stop-Loss SystemThree-tier stop-loss architecture: (1) Individual trade stops, (2) Daily drawdown limit, (3) Account-level circuit breaker at 15% drawdown.
-
Correlation-Based Exposure LimitsSystem prevents over-concentration by limiting correlated positions. Maximum 3 concurrent positions in same direction on correlated assets.
-
News Event FilteringAutomatic trading suspension 30 minutes before and 15 minutes after major economic releases. Verified integration with economic calendar API.
All documented risk management features were verified operational. The maximum drawdown of 8.87% remained well below the 15% circuit breaker threshold. Stress testing confirmed system behavior under extreme market conditions matches documented specifications.
