General Questions

What V23 Trades is, how it works, what it costs, and what it is not.

General What is V23 Trades?

V23 Trades (operating as Goldstrike Products Inc.) is a crypto futures signal service that delivers algorithmically-generated trade setups directly to Telegram in real time. Signals are produced by the V23 Institutional Edge Engine — a custom-built algorithmic model running in TradingView Pine Script. No human manually generates or approves individual signals.

All content produced by V23 Trades is for educational and informational purposes only. V23 Trades is not a registered investment adviser. See the full disclaimer.

General What does ZHC mean?

ZHC stands for Zero Human Calls. It describes the signal pipeline: from chart analysis to Telegram delivery, no human manually triggers or approves individual trade setups. The algorithm fires when conditions are met. The signal is routed automatically to the appropriate channels.

ZHC is not a guarantee of accuracy. It describes the automation architecture — not the outcome. The engine was built and is maintained by a person. The live execution of individual signals is not.

General Is this financial advice?

No. All signals, analysis, and content produced by V23 Trades are for educational and informational purposes only. V23 Trades operates under the publisher's exemption and is not a registered investment adviser (CFTC Rule 4.41). All results are UNAUDITED.

Crypto futures trading carries significant risk of loss. You can lose more than you invest. Never trade with capital you cannot afford to lose. All trading decisions are yours alone. See the Terms of Service and Disclaimer for full details.

General What exchange do you support?

Coinbase International only — USDC-settled perpetual contracts. This is not Coinbase.com (the US retail app). Coinbase International is a separate institutional derivatives platform at intl.coinbase.com.

V23 Trades does not support Binance, Bybit, OKX, or any other exchange. All signal prices, entries, and targets are calibrated for Coinbase International's USDC-margined perpetual contracts.

General What assets do you cover?

Current coverage: BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, DOGE, NEAR, TAO. Not all assets are available on all tiers:

  • Core ($23/mo) — BTC, ETH, SOL only
  • Pro ($46/mo) — All assets
  • Elite ($115/mo) — All assets + weekly BTC macro read
  • Degen Pro ($69/mo) — DEGEN signals, all assets

Coverage may expand over time as new assets are added to the engine.

General How are signals generated?

Signals are generated by the V23 Institutional Edge Engine — a custom-built algorithmic model running in TradingView Pine Script. It is a multi-factor scoring engine that evaluates multiple criteria on every price bar: EMA stack structure, and more.

Each factor is scored in real time. When the combined score clears a threshold — B+ or higher — a signal fires and is routed automatically through Cloudflare to the appropriate Telegram channels. No human intervenes in this process.

General What is the difference between SNIPER and DEGEN signals?

SNIPER — Structure-based, multi-timeframe swing setups. Require bar-close confirmation and higher-timeframe alignment. Wider targets (TP1/2/3), longer hold times (hours to days). Higher selectivity — fires less frequently but with stronger confluence.

DEGEN — Momentum-based, faster setups on 15m, 30m, and 1H timeframes. Higher frequency, shorter hold times (minutes to hours), tighter targets. Designed for traders who monitor charts more actively.

Every signal card is labeled with its type. You always know what you're trading before you enter.

General How are signals delivered?

Signals are delivered via Telegram in real time. The moment the algorithm triggers, a formatted signal card is pushed directly to your subscribed channel. No email delay, no dashboard login required — the signal is in your Telegram feed instantly.

Lifecycle updates (TP hit, invalidation, signal expiry) are also delivered via Telegram for paid tiers. Free channels receive the entry card only.

General Is there a free option?

Yes. Two free channels are available:

  • @V23TradesZHC — Free ZHC channel. Qualifying 1H signals (score ≥ 6, grade A/B+, HTF aligned). Max 2 per week.
  • @V23DegenFree — Degen Den. DEGEN 15m/30m signal entry cards. Entry zone only — no targets, no lifecycle updates.

Full signal cards with all targets, scoring, invalidation levels, and lifecycle updates require a paid tier.

Subscriber Operations

How to read signals, use the portal, execute on Coinbase International, and manage your trades correctly.

Subscriber I just subscribed. What do I do first?

Three steps, in order:

  • Step 1 — Activate your portal. Click the link in your welcome email to set your password and unlock signal history, BTC macro dashboard, and account management. The link expires in 48 hours.
  • Step 2 — Read the Subscriber Playbook. Available at v23trades.com/playbook.html. Covers signal anatomy, the 4 Entry Gates, BTC macro protocol, TP management, and the rules you never break. Read it once before your first live trade.
  • Step 3 — Join your Telegram channel. The invite link is in the portal under My Account.

Do not take a trade before completing all three steps.

Subscriber What do the signal card fields mean?
  • Entry Zone — The price range to enter the trade. Enter only if current price is at or near this level.
  • Invalidation — The level that cancels the trade thesis. This is your stop. If price reaches this level, exit immediately — no exceptions.
  • TP1 / TP2 / TP3 — Take Profit targets. Scale out at each level per the TP management protocol.
  • Grade — Signal quality rating: A+, A, B+, B. Only take B+ or higher.
  • Score — Numeric composite score out of 10. Higher is stronger confluence.
  • HTF Aligned — Whether the higher timeframe confirms the direction. Required for entry (Gate 2).
  • Lifecycle — LIVE, DECAYING, or EXPIRED. Must be LIVE to enter (Gate 4).
Subscriber What are the 4 Entry Gates?

All four gates must pass before entering any trade. If any gate fails, skip the trade entirely.

  • Gate 1 — Signal Quality · Grade must be B+ or higher. Do not take B or lower.
  • Gate 2 — HTF Aligned · Higher timeframe must confirm the direction. Signal card will show "HTF: Aligned" or "HTF: Neutral/Against."
  • Gate 3 — BTC Macro Check · If the BTC score is in deep bear (0–4), trade 1H signals only. Do not take 15m or 30m setups in bear regime.
  • Gate 4 — Lifecycle Gate · Signal must be LIVE. DECAYING means edge is weakening. EXPIRED means the window is closed — do not enter under any circumstances.
Subscriber What does LIVE / DECAYING / EXPIRED mean?

LIVE — The signal is within its valid entry window. Conditions are intact. Entry is permitted if all other gates pass.

DECAYING — Time or price has moved unfavorably since the signal fired. The edge is weakening. Proceed with extra caution — this is a conditional entry at best.

EXPIRED — The signal window has closed. The original trade thesis no longer holds. Do not enter. Wait for the next fresh signal.

Lifecycle updates are delivered via Telegram for all paid tiers in real time.

Subscriber What is the BTC macro score and how do I use it?

The V23 Bottom Probability Engine produces a weekly composite score (0–10) assessing BTC macro conditions. The score is updated every Sunday and is visible in the portal's BTC Macro tab.

  • Score 0–4 (Deep Bear / Bottom Hunt) — Trade 1H signals only. Reduce position sizing. No 15m or 30m setups.
  • Score 5–6 (Transition) — 1H and 4H signals permitted. Remain cautious.
  • Score 7–10 (Bull Forming / Bull Confirmed) — All timeframes permitted. Standard position sizing.

The macro score is Gate 3 of the entry process. Always check it before trading.

Subscriber What is the TP management protocol?

V23 uses a scaled exit approach — take profits in thirds:

  • At TP1 — Close 40% of your position. Move your stop to break-even on the remainder.
  • At TP2 — Close 30% of your position. Move your stop up to TP1 on the remainder.
  • TP3 runner — Let the final 30% run to TP3. Exit at TP3 or if invalidation is reached.

If invalidation is hit at any point — at any percentage remaining — exit the entire position immediately. The invalidation is not a suggestion. It is the trade's decision-maker.

Subscriber What is the 2-stop session rule?

After two consecutive stopped trades in a single session, stop trading for that session. Close the platform. Do not enter a third trade.

Two stops in the same session indicates the market conditions do not favor the current setup types — either the edge is gone for that session or you are in a drawdown state that compounds with a third entry. The market will have another setup. You only need one good one. Come back fresh.

Subscriber How do I set up Coinbase International?

Coinbase International (intl.coinbase.com) is a separate platform from Coinbase.com. You need a new account.

  • Go to intl.coinbase.com and create an account
  • Complete KYC (identity verification) — required before trading
  • Deposit USDC to fund your account
  • Navigate to Perpetuals and locate the asset from the signal card
  • Set leverage as indicated (signal cards include recommended leverage)
  • Set your entry, stop (at Invalidation level), and TP1 take-profit order
  • Confirm order size matches your position sizing calculation

Note: Coinbase International is not available to US residents. Check your country's eligibility before signing up. Full step-by-step instructions are in the Subscriber Playbook.

Subscriber My portal activation link expired. What do I do?

Activation links expire in 48 hours. If yours expired, go to the portal login page at v23trades.com/portal.html and use the "Forgot Password" option. A fresh reset link will be sent to your subscription email address within a few minutes.
