Sitewide communications
Official announcements that affect the platform (billing, outages, major changes, and feature rollouts).
Subscription update (coming soon)
PinnedSchedule update
We had to push back subscription access. New tentative go-live: Mar 2, 2026. Everything stays free until then. All donations—past and future—receive 2× time credit.
Target date
Tentative go-live: Mar 2, 2026
Trial for registered users
All registered users will receive a 5 trading-day free trial at launch.
Why the change?
I’m investing in reliability, data quality, performance, and new features. The subscription model helps cover ongoing infrastructure + data costs while keeping the platform improving.
Important notes
- Pre-launch donations (including previous donations) will be converted to subscription time at 2× credit.
- Time does not start burning until you open the site after your free trial has expired. (In other words: your time wallet begins on your first return after trial.)
Final pricing model (official)
Anchor: 1 Month = $55.00 = 22 trading days → $2.50/day
“Trading day” means market trading days (weekends/holidays don’t burn time).
| Plan | Trading days | Price | Cost / day | % vs monthly |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Day | 1 | $8.00 | $8.00 | 320% |
| 1 Week | 5 | $30.00 | $6.00 | 240% |
| 1 Month | 22 | $55.00 | $2.50 | 100% (anchor) |
| 3 Months | 66 | $150.00 | $2.27 | 91% |
| 12 Months | 264 | $480.00 | $1.82 | 73% |
Donation → time conversion (final rule)
Donations are always converted using the monthly daily rate (best value): $2.50 per trading day.
Pre-launch donations (including previous donations) receive 2× time credit.
Formula
credited_days = donation_amount / 2.50
Before launch, we apply 2× credit:
credited_days = (donation_amount / 2.50) × 2
Examples (standard conversion)
- $25 → 10 trading days
- $50 → 20 trading days
- $100 → 40 trading days
- $200 → 80 trading days
Before launch: double those days (2× credit).
Rule: we always use the monthly rate so donors are never penalized.
Access model: time wallet system
Access works like a time wallet. Each user has an integer: access_days_remaining.
Time does not start burning until you open the site after your free trial has expired.
Adds time
- Trial → adds days
- Purchase → adds days
- Donation → converts to days
Burns time
- Daily job → burns days (trading days only, after trial)
