The four Vooums side by side
Each published Vooum's figures beside Bitcoin held, from the account value at every day's reading. Each name opens its fact sheet.
Side by side
Backtested with hindsight (hypothetical) from the first reading to 31 Oct 2026, fees included; the live paper record under each name, not annualised.

How these figures are made
- From the account value V at each day's reading: daily simple returns r = V(day) / V(day before) − 1; a year is 365 readings, because crypto trades every day.
- Annual return = (V(last) / V(first)) to the power 365 / days − 1. Volatility = the standard deviation of r times the square root of 365.
- Sharpe = mean(r) / standard deviation(r) times the square root of 365, with a risk-free rate of 0. Sortino = mean(r) / the root mean square of the returns below 0, times the square root of 365. Calmar = annual return / worst drop.
- Value at risk (95%) = the 5th percentile of r; expected shortfall = the mean of r at or below it. Beta = covariance(r, Bitcoin's r) / variance(Bitcoin's r).
- Bitcoin held is the same starting money put into Bitcoin on the first day and kept. Months and years run from the last reading of one to the last of the next; the best, worst and positive months count whole months only (not the first or the current one).
- Fees are counted at 0.15% a side. Binance's standard spot fee is 0.10%, or 0.075% paid in BNB (Binance fee schedule, read 20 Oct 2026), so the figures assume more cost than a regular account pays.
- Spot only: no leverage, no borrowing, no short selling. Two pairs, BTC/USDT and ETH/USDT, both open to market orders on Binance; the smallest order there is 5 USDT (Binance exchange information, read 20 Oct 2026).
- The follower result fills every buy and sale 5 minutes after the signal's hour, at the price then plus 0.05% slippage, as a person following the sealed signals would.
- Live signals are sealed and published a median of 0 minutes after the hour they are issued on (the slowest so far: 19 hours), over 16 sealed signals; the follower result already waits 5 minutes before filling.
- How the four were chosen: 85 strategies were backtested in the lab since 11 Oct 2026, most of them public community strategies; 5 race on vooum.com; four are published as Vooums; the rest were retired after testing. A backtest picked from many looks better than one picked blind.
Hypothetical results have limits. These results are simulated: they were made with the benefit of hindsight, no real money was traded, and they cannot account for every effect of real trading, such as keeping to a plan through losses. No account is claimed to have made, or to be likely to make, results like these. The live record is paper too: Vooum trades no real money. General information, the same for every visitor, not advice: you could lose all the money you put in. Terms and risks.
