Check the real chart — every signal in the feed now meets the market

A screenshot shows what the author wanted you to see. The market shows what happened. The feed now shows both.

At a glance

  • Check real chart on any post with a direction and a crypto symbol opens the exchange's real 1-hour candles under the author's screenshot, with a Posted line at the hour it went up.
  • A post with entry, stop and target gets a verdict: Target hit, Stop hit, Running, Not triggered, Closed before a level, Unresolved within the window or Played out before posting.
  • Only candles after the post count. A move that happened first is shown, but never scored.
  • Share the link and the preview card shows the verdict.

Below are three of my own posts, as they look today. Open any of them and tap the button yourself.

📈 The screenshot, and then the real chart

A BroTrades post on a phone: a LONG COOKIEUSDT idea with entry 0.011008, stop 0.009171 and target 0.018187, the author's TradingView screenshot, the real 1-hour chart under it with a Posted line and a B marker at the fill, and a result row reading Running +0.7R

This is a COOKIEUSDT long I posted on 21 September: a breakout from a symmetrical triangle. My screenshot stays on top. Under it is the real chart: the Posted line, my three levels with their prices tagged at the right edge, and a B where the entry filled.

The result row reads Running: the entry filled, and neither the stop nor the target has been hit. When I wrote this it stood at +0.7R, with the best move so far at +1.8R. The row changes as new candles close.

On a wide screen the post page shows the two side by side: What was posted on the left, What happened on the right.

Why it matters: anyone can draw a clean setup after the move. A chart pinned to the moment of posting is the part nobody can edit.

✅ A verdict, not an opinion

Give a post entry, stop and target, and BroTrades reads the candles for you. The rules are the same for everyone:

  • The count starts with the first full hour after the post. Edit the levels and the clock starts again from the edit. Fixing a typo in the text does not.
  • If one candle touches both the stop and the target, it counts as a stop. An hourly candle can't tell which came first, so we never assume the kind answer.
  • The candles are the exchange's own: Binance, or Bybit when Binance has no data or does not answer.
  • B marks a buy and S a sell on the chart. A long opens with B, a short with S.
  • After a stop or target is hit, the chart runs on for 24 hours and then ends, so the hit stays in view.

It judges the signal, not anyone's account. When an auto-posted trade closes, the card shows the signal result and the author's own result side by side.

A BroTrades share card: "Stop hit −1R" in large type, a LONG JCTUSDT auto-posted trade, the chart at posting time rebuilt from candles on the left, the real 1-hour Binance chart after posting on the right with B and S markers, and "Author's result: −1.0R"

This JCTUSDT long was posted by the exchange sync the moment I opened the trade. It filled in the first hour after the post and hit the stop in that same hour: Stop hit −1R. The card says so in its largest letters, next to my real result, −1.0R. It had no screenshot, so the left side is the chart at posting time, rebuilt from the candles that closed before the post.

⏪ Posting after the move

You can post a setup that has already worked. It will not be scored as a win.

A BroTrades share card: "Played out before posting +2.5R" in grey, a SHORT BTCUSDT post, "target hit 4 h before posting · not a live result", the author's screenshot on the left and the real chart on the right with an S at the entry and a B at the target, both before the Posted line

On 23 August I posted a BTCUSDT short with the text "Worked out perfectly". It had: price sold off from the entry and reached the target four hours before I posted. The card is honest about that. It reads Played out before posting +2.5R, in grey, not green, with the note not a live result. The S and B both sit to the left of the Posted line, so anyone can see the move came first.

The same BTCUSDT short on a phone: the author's screenshot, the real chart with S and B before the Posted line, and a result row reading +2.5R, Played out before posting, not a live result

The rule: if a waiting entry had already filled and hit the target or stop in the 72 hours before the post, the post is marked played out before posting. It shows what happened, and counts for nothing.

🟢 How far it has moved

Cards with a live signal carry a chip: ▲ +3.4% from entry in the post's direction, or 1.2% to entry while the entry is still waiting. Once a level is hit and you open the chart, the chip reads Target hit or Stop hit, in R.

🔗 The share card tells the truth too

Paste a post's link into Telegram or X and the preview is the card you saw above: what was posted, next to what happened, and the verdict on top. The fine print at the bottom of every card sums up how the verdict is made, so a reader can check it instead of taking our word for it.

How to use it

  1. Open the feed.
  2. Post a setup with direction, symbol, entry, stop and target.
  3. Tap Check real chart on any card, yours or someone else's.

A signal you can check is worth more than a screenshot you have to trust.
