Find out if a trading idea is real before you risk a cent.
Most trading tips you see online were never tested fairly. Slated Trades lets you test any idea in plain English, practice with pretend money, and get alerts that matter. We show every result, including the losses.
What you get
Built for people who are learning, with no jargon you have to look up.
"Is my strategy real?"
Build a rule from simple blocks ("buy after 3 red days…"). We test it the way professionals should: costs included, against 1,000 random versions, in two different eras, then give you a plain verdict.
Big-news alerts
One phone alert when something big happens to a stock you follow: a buyout, a share sale, an earnings surprise. Never "10 stocks to watch". Each alert explains what the news could mean.
Live paper records
Our strategies trade with pretend money on new prices every day, so you see how they really do going forward, not just on old data.
Practice with pretend money
A trade journal and position sizer so you can practice risk and discipline without losing real money while you learn.
Memecoin scam check
Paste a coin and see its red flags in seconds: who holds it, whether the creator can still mint more, how easy it is to sell. Free for everyone.
The Graveyard
Every idea we tested that failed, and why. Most apps only show winners. The losers teach more.
Our best rule worked for 30 years. Then we looked further back.
A popular "buy the dip" rule passed every test we have from 1993 to today. When we tested it on market data back to 1926, years it had never seen, it lost money for six decades. Markets change.
We could have hidden that. We put it on the strategy's page instead. That's the whole idea of Slated Trades: you see what we see.
