The six published sub-scores, on the 0–1 scale the engine normalised them to, which is why they differ from the figures above. CAGR is the annualised account return, not the total. The Score is their weighted geometric mean, so the smallest arm holds it down and cannot be bought back by a strong one; that arm is marked. Lifetime, not the selected period.

Use Pulse

Pulse is listed on the Triggon Strategy Marketplace, where this same record is published beside its price and the number of seats still open. Subscribe there and its Signals arrive in Telegram as the Strategy fires them, each one carrying the entry, the stop and the targets you have been reading here.

Publish a journal of your own

Every Triggon Provider gets this page built from their own record, and it is generated rather than written: each trade enters it the moment the Strategy fires, so the journal cannot say anything the trade history does not. Switch sharing on and it gets a permanent address anyone can read without an account. How journals work, the journals already published, or what becoming a Provider involves.

Become a Provider

Generated from Sam Royden’s trades, written down when they opened. Past performance does not predict future results, and trading carries risk. Published at its own address by the Provider, who can withdraw it at any time.
