BTC/USD signal FAQ

Is the BTC/USD signal free?
Yes. The BTC/USD Simple Scan is 100% free forever, with no login and no card. The optional Pro Scan is the only paid part.
What is the difference between the free signal and Pro Scan?
The free Simple Scan reads the 3 core price rules (RSI, moving average and momentum) and gives you a real BTC/USD signal in seconds. The Pro Scan runs all 13 rules and, most importantly, scans live world data for BTC/USD right now: the latest news and upcoming economic events, read and weighed by AI. Free is a fast technical read, Pro is a full, world-aware signal with Telegram and email alerts.
Why does the Pro Scan cost money?
Because it is a real live scan, not a guess. Every Pro Scan combines live BTC/USD prices with current news, economic-calendar events and the complete 13-rule model, which costs real compute and live data each time it runs. You are paying for a genuine live scan of your market, updated the moment you request it.

Is BTC/USD a buy or sell today?
Right now the BTC/USD signal is HOLD. The free reading is calculated from 3 core technical rules (RSI, moving average and price momentum), while a Pro scan evaluates the complete 13-rule model. It changes through the day as price and momentum shift, so check the live signal above before you trade.

An algorithmic engine checks 13 market rules (RSI, moving averages, momentum, Fear & Greed, session timing, round levels, USD trend and more), then weighs them into a single direction and confidence score.
