Why We Publish Every Losing Trade
By Marcus Webb · May 1, 2026 · 5 min read
We lost money on 26 out of 141 closed trades. And we published every single one of them.
If that sounds unusual, it is. In an industry where signal services routinely delete losing trades, edit screenshots, and claim "95%+ win rates" — we chose the opposite path.
The Dirty Secret of Signal Services
Let me be blunt: most Telegram stock signal channels are running a con. Here's how it works:
- Post 10 signals — some public, some in a "VIP" channel
- Delete the losers — quietly remove any signal that hit its stop-loss
- Screenshot the winners — post triumphant screenshots of green P&L
- Claim "98% win rate" — because the losses never existed
- Charge $50-200/month — for signals that don't actually work
🚩 Red flag: If a signal service claims 90%+ win rate but won't show you a complete, unfiltered trade history with dates, entry prices, and outcomes — they're hiding something.
Our Approach: Radical Transparency
We built the opposite. Every signal MarketPulseBot sends is:
- ✅ Timestamped — published before market open, not after
- ✅ Tracked automatically — our system checks real market prices daily
- ✅ Published publicly — wins AND losses, on our live results page
- ✅ Available via API — anyone can verify at
/api/performance
Our Real Numbers: The Ugly Truth
Here are some of our actual losses:
| Ticker | Signal | Entry | Outcome | Return |
| RIVN | BUY | $14.91 | LOSS | -2.75% |
| SQ | BUY | $82.50 | LOSS | -4.12% |
| SNAP | BUY | $11.20 | LOSS | -6.22% |
| ...and 23 more losses | Avg: -3.1% |
Our worst loss was -6.22%. That hurts. But here's the thing — we show it to you before you subscribe, not after.
Why Transparency Wins
❌ Typical Signal Service
- "98% win rate" (unverified)
- No public track record
- Screenshots as "proof"
- $50-228/month
- Losers deleted silently
✅ MarketPulseBot
- 80.1% win rate (verified)
- Public results page + API
- Automated real-price tracking
- $4.99/month
- All 26 losses published
What Our 80.1% Actually Means
Out of 141 closed signals:
- 113 hit their target — average gain: +4.8%
- 26 hit their stop-loss — average loss: -3.1%
- 2 expired — neither target nor stop was hit
The math: Even if you took every signal equally, your expected return per trade is +3.36%. Over 141 trades, that's significant compounding. And it's verified against real NYSE/NASDAQ prices — not hypothetical backtests.
Is 80% perfect? No. Will we have losing streaks? Absolutely. But at least you'll know — in real time, with real data.
