Account balance — A USD figure held against your account, derived from your ledger and used to buy plans and add-ons. Custodial, unlike your trading capital. See The custody model. Add-on — A permanent entitlement bought once, with no expiry. See Add-ons. Basis point (bps) — One hundredth of a percent. 500 bps = 5%. Rates are stored this way so percentages of prices stay exact. Calibrated rate — What a strategy’s claim has historically been worth, measured against resolved outcomes. Leads over the raw score throughout the platform. Confirmation threshold — How many block confirmations an asset needs before a deposit is credited. Ranges from 1 (XRP Ledger) to 32 (Solana). Credible interval — The range containing the true rate with 90% probability. Written [low, high]. The most important number on any statistics screen. Declared rate — A claim a strategy makes about itself. Never a result, and never promoted into a measurement. Deposit address — An address provisioned for one asset on one fixed network, tied to your account. Deposit stateWAITING, CONFIRMING, CONFIRMED, PARTIALLY_PAID, FAILED or EXPIRED. Transitions are forward-only. Entitlement — Something your account is currently allowed to do. Granted by a plan for a term, or by an add-on permanently. Evaluated per request. Extra id — A memo or destination tag required by some assets. Without it, a transfer cannot be attributed to your account. IPN — Instant Payment Notification. The signed callback from the payment processor. The only path by which a balance increases. See Webhooks. KYC — Know Your Customer. Identity verification, required before withdrawal. Ledger entry — One immutable row recording a movement: amount, kind, and a reference to its cause. Balances are the sum of these. Liveness capture — A selfie taken during verification, checking the submitter is the person in the document. MEV — Maximal Extractable Value. Value capturable by ordering, including or excluding transactions within a block. Non-custodial — BlackQuant is granted permission to execute specific routes and never permission to withdraw. A contract-level distinction, not a policy one. Payment intent — A checkout tied to a specific purchase rather than to your balance generally. Fulfilled once, at settlement. Position — An open or closed trade. Concurrent limits are set by your plan tier. Profit factor — Gross wins divided by gross losses. Published as null rather than infinity when there are no losses yet. Recovery code — A single-use code standing in for your authenticator app. Ten are issued at 2FA enrolment. Referral code — Eight characters from an alphabet excluding 0, o, 1, l and i, because those get misread off a screen. Referral tier — How far a commission travels up the chain. Tier 1 (direct) pays 5%; Tier 2 pays 2%. Reliability bin — Strategy results grouped by claimed confidence, each with its own measured rate. Answers whether a strategy is right more often when it says it is confident. Signal — A published observation that a measurable inefficiency exists. Not an order. Signal plan — A subscription granting feed access at a tier, for 30 or 365 days. SSE — Server-Sent Events. How deposit states and live signals reach the browser without polling. TOTP — Time-based One-Time Password. The rotating six-digit codes used for 2FA. Win rate — Proportion of resolved outcomes that were wins. null until something resolves — never defaulted to zero.
