The AltixTrader editorial policy exists so readers can judge how much weight to give what they read here. We explain markets and safety checks; we do not sell trading, and we are not a broker, exchange or platform. That position shapes every rule below.
Where our information comes from
We build guides from primary sources wherever possible: rules and publications from financial regulators, exchange rulebooks and trading-hour notices, central bank material, issuer disclosures for stablecoins, and protocol documentation for blockchains. When a guide relies on a specific rule, limit or date, the source is named at the bottom of the page in plain text. We do not link out to external sites from our content.
If we cannot confirm a figure from a reliable source, we leave it out and explain the idea without it. We do not publish statistics we cannot attribute.
How a guide is written and checked
- Question first. Each page starts from a question a cautious reader would ask.
- Drafting. Drafts may be prepared with the help of AI writing tools, working from our notes and sources.
- Editorial review. An editor checks every factual claim against its source, removes anything that cannot be supported and rewrites unclear passages.
- Maths check. Every worked example is recalculated independently before publication. Illustrative figures are labelled as illustrative.
- Safety review. Pages on leverage and crypto carry risk warnings, and we check that nothing reads as a promise of returns.
Independence
- We take no payment, commission or affiliate fee from brokers, exchanges, token issuers or trading courses.
- We do not rank or review real firms, and we do not recommend particular coins, shares or providers.
- We do not accept sponsored articles.
What we never do
- Invent statistics, testimonials, reviews, awards or experts.
- Predict prices or promise performance.
- Offer accounts, trading, signals, bonuses or investment management.
- Ask readers for money or personal financial details.
Calculators, images and examples
Our calculators run in your browser, store nothing and show the formula they use, so you can check any result by hand. Worked examples use round, made-up numbers chosen to make the arithmetic easy to follow; they are not forecasts or quotes from any real firm. Images on the site are illustrative artwork, not screenshots of real platforms or accounts.
How we handle safety topics
Because many readers come to us after an approach from a stranger, we write about scams in concrete terms: the words used, the sequence of requests and the checks that expose them. We describe patterns, not individuals, and we never suggest that paying someone can recover lost funds.
Updates and corrections
Rules and market practices change, so we review guides regularly and show the date each page was last updated. If you spot an error, tell us through the contact page. We correct factual mistakes promptly and, where a correction changes the meaning of a page, we say so on that page.
Everything here is general information, not personal advice. Please read our disclaimer.
