Prop firms & brokers
| Engagement | What you get | Delivery time | Payment | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trial Your first Snapshot · one per firm | Your first Snapshot at an introductory price: one disposition figure, measured on your own records, with a one-page write-up. Refunded in full if your extract can’t be made to run, or if your own re-run doesn’t reproduce the figure. Credited in full toward a Memo signed within 60 days | 5 business days | 100% on acceptance | $745 |
| Snapshot | One disposition figure for one population and period you name: PGR, PLR, their ratio, a t statistic, the counts behind them and a one-page write-up. Order another for each further population or period | 10 business days | 50% on acceptance; 50% within 7 days of delivery | $2,500 |
| Memo Standard engagement | Everything in a Snapshot, plus your ratio set beside the public study’s ratio, with the differences explained in writing | 15 business days | 50% on acceptance; 50% within 7 days of delivery | $6,000 |
| Outcomes pack | Everything in Memo for your whole book, plus each split you agree in the scope | 20 business days | 50% on acceptance; 50% within 7 days of delivery | $12,000 |
What the terms mean: the disposition effect is selling winning trades more readily than losing ones. PGR and PLR are the shares of winning and losing positions that were sold; their ratio compares the two, and the t statistic says how far the result stands above noise. Glossary →
Quarterly re-check: the same measurement on a fresh extract, at 25% of the price of the engagement being repeated (for example $1,500 for a Memo), payable in advance, delivered in 5 business days.
Copy-trading platforms
The copy-leader persistence test: does your leader ranking predict what followers earn after copying costs and delay, out of sample and adjusted for luck? Sold to platforms only, never to followers, and not advice. It uses the engagements above, at the same prices:
- Trial, $745 USD: your first test at the introductory price, one per platform: one ranking rule and one period. The trial terms apply, with that test in place of the disposition figure.
- Snapshot, $2,500 USD: one ranking rule and one period.
- Memo, $6,000 USD: the full test: every ranking rule and period agreed in the scope, written up with its limits stated.
- Outcomes pack, $12,000 USD: the full test, plus a re-check of the same rules on a later period.
Firms that make behaviour claims
The claims substantiation test: your marketing says your product changes how traders behave, and a sealed, pre-registered test checks whether that claim holds on your own users’ records. We report the result whether it supports the claim or not. It is not a certification, a verification or an audit. It uses the engagements above, at the same prices:
- Trial, $745 USD: your first test at the introductory price, one per firm: one claim, one measure and one comparison. The trial terms apply, with that test in place of the disposition figure.
- Snapshot, $2,500 USD: one claim, one measure and one comparison.
- Memo, $6,000 USD: the full test: every measure and comparison agreed in the scope, written up with its result and its limits.
- Outcomes pack, $12,000 USD: the full test, plus the same sealed test run again on a later period.
The law, in neutral terms (not legal advice). In Canada, the Competition Act treats as reviewable conduct a representation to the public, made to promote a product or a business interest, in the form of “a statement, warranty or guarantee of the performance, efficacy or length of life of a product that is not based on an adequate and proper test thereof, the proof of which lies on the person making the representation” (s. 74.01(1)(b)). Whether a particular test is adequate and proper for a particular claim is for you and your legal advisers to judge. We give no legal advice, and we don’t say that our test meets that standard.

Cancellations, refunds and the trial
- Firms: No cancellation fees. The trial is refundable in full until your staff first run the script on your records (data kick-off), and after that through the reproduction refund. Memo, Outcomes pack and Snapshot are paid 50% on acceptance and 50% within 7 days of delivery; if either side stops, completed work is billed pro rata. The trial fee is also refunded in full if your extract can’t be made to run, or if your own re-run of the published script on the same export (same file hash) doesn’t reproduce the figure.
- Traders: At launch you can cancel online at any time, with no cancellation fees. Ask within 14 days of buying, or within 14 days of each renewal, for a full refund. We email you 30 days before each annual renewal. No monthly plan; annual or one-off only.

Questions about price
Why publish prices?
So you know the cost before you write, and every firm pays the same.
Do you take card payments?
Yes. Once you accept the scope we send a secure Stripe payment link. Bank transfer, or Interac e-Transfer in Canada, also work.
What is the difference between the Trial, a Snapshot and a Memo?
The Trial is your first Snapshot at an introductory price, one per firm. A Snapshot is one figure for one population and period. A Memo adds your ratio set beside the public study’s, with the differences explained in writing.
Is the trial fee lost if we go ahead?
No — credited in full toward a Memo signed within 60 days of trial delivery.
Can the price change after we accept?
No — fixed in writing in the scope you accept.
After 31 March 2027?
New prices will be published here with a dated entry. Accepted engagements keep their price.
