Tickeron's Client Account Agreement
Services Provided by TICKERON
Tickeron offers non-discretionary investment advisory services to individuals through its proprietary service, known as A.I.DVISOR - (the “ADVISOR SERVICE”).
The ADVISOR SERVICE, using information supplied by you (each a “Member” or “Client”), provides personalized guidance to help you make investment decisions. Access to the services is based on membership, which is sold on a subscription basis. Membership is divided into the following classes:
- Beginner Member;
- Intermediate Member; and
- Expert Member.
The level of membership associated with a Client is intended to be correlated with the level of investment sophistication/experience of the Client, with Beginner Member representing the least sophisticated investor.
The investment advisory services, and the features of our Advisor Service that Clients can access is based on the level of membership. Clients are required to select the level of membership most appropriate to them. We do not determine if the level of membership chosen by a Client appropriate for the Client and are not liable should a Client select an inappropriate level of membership, nor will reimbursements be given if a Client selects the wrong level of membership and later wants to change to a lower level. Clients who select the Advisor membership are required to be registered investment advisers.
The ADVISOR SERVICE includes artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to generate investment and trading recommendations and commentaries.
The artificial intelligence components include A.I Wizards, Pattern Search Engine, Trend Prediction Engine, and Articles & Blogs:
- A.I WIZARDS: uses Tickeron’s Diversification Score® tool to gauge relative exposure of your portfolio equity selection, and to allocate your portfolio/cash based on the Diversification score®.
- PATTERN SEARCH ENGINE: identifies patterns in stock price movements based on technical analysis, and provides alerts whenever a pattern is identified.
- TREND PREDICTION ENGINE: uses sophisticated technology to identify and analyze stock trend in real time.
- ARTICLES & BLOGS: allows our Expert Members to publish investment information through “blog-style” posts on www.tickeron.com. The posts can be searched using artificial intelligence techniques. If you see a blog post that does not belong or is offensive, please notify Tickeron immediately.
The artificial intelligence components utilize proprietary complex algorithms. The information provided by A.I. Wizards uses these algorithms to make suggestions for Clients based on the information you input. If the information provided is inaccurate, your Diversification score® will be affected. The Diversification score® is a tool to gauge your exposure and make suggestions for allocating your portfolio, it is not investment advice.
In addition, the AI components include Marketplace, Academy, Community Trend Predictions, and Sharing and Exchanging Tools :
- MARKETPLACE: comprises an online marketplace for our products and A.I products. Member products are created and offered for sale by other users of the ADVISOR SERVICE and may include passive portfolios, and active portfolios as well as AI Robots. A.I products include Pattern and Trend Search Engines which include associated with intelligence recognitions of patterns and trends associated with confidence levels generated by our propriety algorithms.
- ACADEMY: we offer a variety of community features to facilitate communications between members. These include investor and trader clubs, watchlist and filter exchanges, webcasts, and tool for members to connect as “friends”, and access to company information from stock tickers.
- COMMUNITY TREND PREDICTIONS: provides an indication of member reports on trends (market direction) over different time horizons.
- SEARCHING AND SHARING TOOLS: provides tools for members to find and to share information with other “friend” members.
While Tickeron allows members to post products for sale in the Marketplace, provide reports on market trends, find advisors, connect with friends, etc. does not mean that we are endorsing or agree with any product, advice, or person listed on our website.

Simulated results (annualized returns, % wins/loss, and other statistics) are achieved by the modeling designed without the benefit of hindsight. The backtesting of performance differs from the actual account performance because the investment strategy may be adjusted at any time, for any reason and can continue to be changed until desired or better performance results are achieved. Alternative modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different results and prove to be more appropriate. Past hypothetical backtest results are neither an indicator nor a guarantee of future returns. Actual results will vary from the analysis. Past performance should not be taken as an indication or guarantee of future performance, and no representation or warranty, expressed or implied is made regarding future performance. Tickeron distinguishes these types of performances and will identify each on the website.
All simulated performance results are derived solely from real-time calculations using historical data. Algorithms receive minute-by-minute historical prices and other data from Morningstar and generate trades in real time based on these historical inputs, effectively eliminating any hindsight bias.
Actual Performance
All actual performance results are derived solely from real-time calculations using current data. Algorithms receive minute-by-minute current prices and other data from Morningstar and generate trades in real time based on these current inputs, effectively eliminating any hindsight bias.
Gross Performance
Gross performance results do not deduct any fees or expenses. These results reflect the total returns generated by the AI Robots without considering the costs associated with accessing the service.
Net Performance
Net performance results deduct fees to provide a more accurate representation of returns experienced by the user. These deductions can include:
Model Fee Deduction: Net performance results may deduct a model fee equivalent to the highest subscription fee charged to the intended audience.
Actual Subscription Fees: Net performance results may also deduct the actual subscription fees paid by the user for access to AI Robots.
