Our Methodology

Last updated: 2026-08-19

This page explains how Pro Trader Daily researches and evaluates the products and markets we cover. Every ranking is based on publicly verifiable data, not undisclosed testing.

How We Evaluate Crypto Exchanges

• Security & track record — published security disclosures, incident records, proof-of-reserves
• Fees — official published fee schedules
• Supported assets — listed coins and trading pairs
• Regulatory standing — registrations with regulators (SEC, FCA, MAS)
• Liquidity — reported trading volume from public aggregators

How We Assess Crypto Wallets

• Security model — custodial vs non-custodial, key management
• Supported chains — breadth of blockchain support
• Backup & recovery — seed phrase and recovery options
• Transparency — open source and independently audited

How We Analyze Markets

Market analysis draws on public data from aggregators such as CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap, on-chain data, and official announcements. Market commentary is informational, not personalized investment advice.

Rating Principles
