Pricing questions
Is there really a free plan?
Yes, Free is free forever. One paper strategy, live crypto data, full backtest/forward-test and honest analytics. No card required.
Do you take a cut of my trades or hold my funds?
No. zengtrade is non-custodial. Live execution runs on your own exchange with your own API keys, we never touch your coins and take no trading commission.
Can I cancel anytime?
Anytime, in one click. You keep Free access after cancelling.
Why is live execution gated?
A strategy only unlocks live once it clears the go-live bar in paper, enough closed trades, positive expectancy net of cost, across regimes. We'd rather you prove the edge than pay to lose money.
