How it works & your safety

Straight answers to the questions people ask before connecting an exchange. Short version: your funds stay on your exchange, your keys can't withdraw, and trading is automated from rules you set — not run by hand on our side.

How it works

What does DMTrading do?
It collects public market data, evaluates conditions you or your assistant define, records each fire with its evidence, and sends it to your verified delivery channels. You trade elsewhere.
What can I watch?
Exchange spot markets on Coinbase, Binance.US and Bybit; named technical setups on supported timeframes; exact price crossings; and on-chain coin discovery rules for Solana, Base and Robinhood Chain. Each setup and preflight response states its actual venue, timeframe, data and quota requirements.
What happens after a condition fires?
The fire is stored first, then a durable delivery record is queued for the channels you selected. The fire keeps its evaluated bar or observation, exact values, revision and later price observations, so a missed delivery does not erase what happened.

Your assistant

How does my AI connect?
Create a scoped key under Connect your AI. Your assistant can discover capabilities, read market data, preflight a rule, create or edit it, and inspect fires. Keys are shown once and stored only as hashes; they are unrelated to any exchange account.
Why is a rule quiet?
Every rule reports its evaluation health. You can see whether it is waiting for history, stale data, a closed bar, re-arm, quota, a halt, or a working delivery channel. Missing data is unknown and never becomes a match through negation.

Delivery and limits

Where do alerts go?
To verified email, Telegram or Slack destinations you manage under Delivery. A rule can select specific channels. Delivery readiness includes both destination verification and whether this deployment's transport is configured.
What do plan limits count?
Capabilities and preflight show the current standalone-rule, basket and active-member limits before anything is armed. A basket selects markets and manages its child alerts; it does not hide unbounded evaluation work.

Money and safety

Can DMTrading trade or withdraw for me?
No. The application has no exchange-key field, signing client, order function, position or trading mode. It reads public market data and sends measurements. It cannot place, cancel or modify an order and never holds funds.
Is an alert advice or a prediction?
No. It means the stated condition matched the recorded inputs. Outcome observations report what price did later; they are factual measurements with a denominator, not a promise of profit or predictive confidence.
How can I check the system's work?
The build transparency page identifies the deployed build. Market values remain attributable to their venue or chain source.
