Transparency

How we make money

TradeOnyx is funded exclusively through subscriptions. We receive no advertising revenue, no third-party affiliate commissions, and we do not sell user data. Anyone who uses TradeOnyx therefore knows exactly where the money comes from — from the Pro and Pro Plus subscriptions.

Our revenue sources

  • Subscription revenue from Pro and Pro Plus plans (see pricing). Free stays free permanently and is cross-subsidised by this revenue.

What we don't do

  • No advertising on the platform — no display ads, no sponsored content. The Onyx-Engine output, the briefing and the Academy are ad-free.
  • No affiliate commissions from brokers or third parties. When we name brokers or data sources, the selection is based on technical fitness for import, not on commission. Should that ever change, we will label the affected link transparently as advertising under § 5a (4) UWG.
  • No data sales. Trade data, journal entries and behavioural patterns are processed solely for the analysis of the individual user. They never leave our stack for commercial purposes (details in the privacy policy).
  • No paid trading signals — our model is journaling and analytics, not recommendations.

Our partner programme

The partner programme is live: anyone who recommends TradeOnyx earns 30 % of the net revenue of every subscription created through their link, recurring for as long as that subscription runs. This is not classical third-party affiliate marketing. The referrer is one of our own users, the referred product is TradeOnyx itself, and the commission comes out of subscription revenue rather than from a third party.

The full terms (commission rate, payout by credit note, minimum payout, charge-backs, VAT) are published on the partner programme page. A referral link never makes anything more expensive: the subscription price is identical whichever route somebody arrives by, and the commission comes out of TradeOnyx's own revenue. In fairness, the one difference: a partner link also gets you 30 days of Pro Plus to try. Arriving without a link means no trial, but not a cent more either, and the permanently free plan is open to everyone anyway.

If anything changes

If we adjust the business model — adding revenue sources, introducing advertising, entering third-party affiliate relationships — we update this page and inform existing users by email. Until then: 100 % subscriptions, 0 % advertising, 0 % third-party commissions.

Open-source software we use

The price charts in TradeOnyx are rendered with Lightweight Charts™, an open-source charting library by TradingView, Inc., provided under the Apache 2.0 licence. The price data shown comes from our own sources (delayed market data, or the broker you connected), not from TradingView.
