Frequently asked questions

Breakflare helps you build a crypto portfolio from research, not FOMO. Every day its proprietary algorithm tracks about 150 promising crypto projects (CoinGecko ranks 51-500) on rising social attention, whale flows, and market context, then ranks which ones look closest to climbing toward the top 50 with Breakout Index™ (BI™). Core research is an attention tracker and terminal. Optional Breakflare trading agent can place paper or live orders on your own connected exchange account (trade-only keys). It is not a signal group and Breakflare never holds your balances.

Yes. Free tools on www.breakflare.com include a live band checker, watchlist triage, coin compare, rank climb, attention vs price, a false-breakout screen, narrative heat, CSV export, and embeds. Live CoinGecko lookups run in your browser. Sample tools use a static research sample, not a free delayed board. Live Breakout Index™ rankings still need an app account.

Active crypto traders and researchers who watch narrative shifts in CoinGecko ranks 51-500. It is for people who care how fast attention is rising, not fundamentals alone, and want a ranked shortlist instead of scanning every dashboard.

Yes. You choose a 1-day, 7-day, or 30-day window at onboarding (or anytime in the terminal). Each window uses its own Breakout Index™ scoring and locked track-record cohort. Day traders use the 1-day window; swing traders usually use 7 days; slower sizing or DCA often uses 30 days. Core research is rankings and context; optional Trading agent can place orders on your connected exchange.

No. Rankings, scores, alerts, and catalyst notes describe attention and market context. They are not buy, sell, or hold recommendations. You are responsible for your own decisions.

Core research (ranked candidates, whales, trackers, and alerts) does not place orders by itself. Optional Breakflare trading agent can: paper (simulated) mode is included, and live orders on your own connected exchange account (trade-only API keys, Binance spot first) need keys and credits. Breakflare never holds your trading balances.

Yes. Sign in at app.breakflare.com to start the qualifier onboarding, then choose Core (free, no credit card) or Plus ($1, 14-day full-product trial, then $200/mo). The marketing site explains the product; the terminal itself is auth-gated.

Yes. Core is free forever. No credit card required. It includes the daily shortlist (excluding top 3), alerts, one tracker, and the spot trading agent. Plus is $200/mo or $2000/yr and starts with a $1, 14-day full Plus trial. Enterprise is custom pricing. Compare plans on the pricing page.

Core includes the daily shortlist (excluding top 3), alerts, watchlist, 1 portfolio tracker, and the spot trading agent (paper and live). Plus unlocks the top 3 names, the rest of ranks 51-500, terminal charts, whales, and unlimited trackers. Enterprise credit rates for the agent are agreed per account.

Three tiers: Core (free, no credit card, for the daily shortlist excluding the top 3, alerts, 1 tracker, and the spot trading agent), Plus ($200/mo or $2000/yr for the full daily breakout shortlist, charts, whales, and unlimited trackers), and Enterprise (on custom terms for desks, teams, and API). Plus yearly is 2 months free vs monthly. Compare plans on the pricing page.

Self-serve plans are Core (free, no credit card) and Plus ($200/mo or $2000/yr). Enterprise is custom pricing for desks and API.

Core is free, so it does not need a trial or a card. Plus has a $1, 14-day trial so you can use the full product, including the top 3 names. After 14 days you are billed $200/mo or $2000/yr unless you cancel. The $1 trial fee stays charged unless the Refund Policy says the law of your country requires it back. See the pricing page for what the trial includes.

We do not offer refunds. You can cancel anytime. Cancellation stops the next renewal, and the period already paid for stays paid. We refund a charge only where the Refund Policy says the law of your country requires it, within the period listed there, or where we confirm a duplicate charge or other billing error.

Yes. Subscriptions can be canceled through your account billing settings. Cancellation stops future renewals; access continues through the end of the current paid period unless otherwise stated at checkout.

Breakflare's proprietary scoring algorithm is the engine behind Breakout Index™. Each UTC day it collects 40+ market, social, on-chain, news, technical, and whale signals for CoinGecko ranks 51-500, converts them to peer percentiles, blends them with backtest-calibrated weights, then applies quality gates before publishing the shortlist. Exact weights stay private; the stack, supporting columns, and locked track record stay visible. See the algorithm page.

Breakout Index™ (BI™) is the main ranking for coins in the rank 51-500 band. It is the headline output of Breakflare's proprietary algorithm: a blend of social attention, how fast that attention is changing, rank climb, market context, whales, news, and quality checks so you have a clearer research starting point for your next decision. Hype, Climb, and confidence stay visible as separate columns. Full methodology overview on the algorithm page.

Hype score measures how loud a coin is across social and market-attention signals on a given UTC day, ranked versus the other coins we track. A high hype score means attention is elevated today, not that price must rise.

Momentum tracks whether attention is rising or fading over 3-day and 7-day UTC windows. It is most useful after one to two weeks of daily runs. Early history can look noisy until enough days are in the database.

Climb is a transparent band composite inside Breakout Index™. It highlights rank 51-500 coins where chatter is rising and market-cap rank is improving toward the top 50. It pairs attention momentum with rank climb, not price targets. The headline sort is still Breakout Index™ (BI™).

Confidence reflects how much signal coverage a coin has, plus historical evidence when enough labeled history exists. It describes how well-supported a row is, not how bullish Breakflare is.

No. It means attention is elevated versus peers today. Price can lag, lead, or diverge. Breakflare measures attention heat, not fair value or guaranteed upside.

No. Breakflare measures attention and how fast it is changing, not future price targets or fair value. Breakout Index™ ranks candidates relative to peers. It is not a guarantee of top-50 entry or returns.

Hit rates show how often locked daily shortlist picks broke out within the chosen window after that window ended. Each trader horizon (1-day, 7-day, 30-day) has its own locked cohort. Past graded outcomes are analytics only.

Soft research curves that equal-weight locked top 3 picks. Trailing take-profit: −14% stop from entry, unlimited upside, exit after a 14pp trail from peak. These curves are a fixed research window, separate from the trading agent, which starts at a 10% stop and a 10 point trail and can move. These curves are notional analytics only (not live Trading agent fills).

Coins roughly in CoinGecko market-cap ranks 51-500, with a focus on those showing rising attention and improving rank. Large caps in the top 50 and tiny micro caps outside the band are outside the core lens. Stablecoins are excluded from breakout candidacy.

That band is where narrative heat often shows up before a coin reaches the top 50. Top-50 names are already widely covered; micro caps are harder to compare fairly. The 51-500 band is Breakflare's breakout hunting ground.

The scoring pipeline targets one fresh ranked snapshot per UTC day on Breakflare-hosted infrastructure. Run timestamps are shown in UTC and ICT on the dashboard.

Momentum, confidence, ML probability, and track-record grades strengthen after daily runs accumulate over one to two weeks. The first few days after sign-up are informative but thin on trend context.

Breakflare blends 40+ market, on-chain, DEX, social, news, technical, and whale sources into daily Breakout Index™ scores. Broad market context covers the top 200; deeper research signals focus on ranks 51-500 (community, search, news, DEX heat, holders, charts, and curated wallets). If one feed fails, weight redistributes across the rest.

No. Breakflare runs a hosted daily pipeline on Breakflare infrastructure. You do not need vendor API keys to open the terminal. Optional tracker API keys for custom wallet monitoring are configured separately in the Trackers section.

After sign-in, open Trackers in the app to add optional upstream keys for custom wallet monitoring. Subscription plans and the Breakflare Data API are managed separately in Settings.

A REST API for daily breakout-band attention scores, catalyst context, and market snapshot fields for coins ranked 51-500. Optional webhooks are a separate commercial SKU on top of REST. The Data API is not included with dashboard Core (free) or Plus ($200/mo or $2000/yr); they are separate products. We also offer file Datasets (Parquet/CSV) of the same proprietary history. Access is by request, not automatic at checkout. Submit a request from the API docs (select API, Datasets, or both). Commercial terms are sent privately after review.

No. Dashboard JSON and ranked snapshots are auth-gated for signed-in subscribers. The marketing site and blog explain methodology; live scores require a plan.

The terminal is the daily Breakout Index™ research workspace for CoinGecko rank 51-500. The $1, 14-day trial includes today's live table with denser signal columns, watchlists, and history. Learn more on the terminal page.

Whales surfaces curated large-holder wallets and fund movements that add context next to Breakout Index™. Browse holdings, recent transfers, and conviction signals so your research is not attention-only. See the whales page.

Email or Telegram notifications when breakout candidates shift, Breakout Index™ or whale activity crosses your thresholds, or other configured signal changes. Alerts are informational, not trade execution. See the alerts page.

Yes. Build named wallet lists for your own multi-wallet portfolio or addresses you follow. Track combined value snapshots, holdings breakdowns, per-address labels, and interpreted on-chain signals. See the trackers page.

Dated catalyst intelligence on band candidates: listings, launches, unlocks, and similar events from news discovery, with optional AI enrichment when configured. It adds event context alongside scores, not trade instructions.

Breakflare trading agent is the optional autopilot layer on top of the same daily research stack: it reads Breakout Index™ and your own risk rules, then places orders on your own exchange account within guardrails you set. Core and Plus include paper and live Binance spot. Plus, including the trial, can also open 1x isolated USD-M futures longs when a coin has no Binance spot pair. Live orders need your own trade-only keys and credits. See how it works on the trading agent page.

Yes, in paper mode. Breakflare trading agent starts in simulated paper mode against your own rules. Live orders need your own trade-only Binance API keys and pay-as-you-go credits in the app. Live pauses automatically if credits reach $0. See the Binance trade-only key guide for setup.

No, by design. Breakflare trading agent is non-custodial: you connect trade-only exchange API keys (no withdrawal permission) on your own exchange account. Breakflare never holds your balances. Custody or yield products are a separate, licensed business line that does not exist yet and is not part of this feature.

Paper mode (simulated fills) is included with Core and Plus and never debits credits. Live trading needs optional pay-as-you-go top-up credits (including optional auto-recharge). Plus, including the trial, debits 0.5% of notional on the open and 0.5% on the close (1% round trip). Core debits 1% on the open and 1% on the close (2% round trip). Enterprise debit rates are agreed per account. Exchange fees are separate. If credits reach $0, live trading pauses automatically while paper mode keeps running. Agent credit top-ups and auto-recharges stay charged, including unused balances, except where the Refund Policy says the law requires a refund or we confirm a Breakflare billing error.

Breakflare trading agent includes a score floor, a max position size per trade, stop-loss and take-profit rules, a daily loss kill switch, and a default paper (simulated) mode before any live keys are enabled. Withdrawal-capable API keys are rejected automatically. None of this is a guarantee against loss: autopilot trading can lose money.

On Choose API Key type, select System generated (HMAC) before Binance asks for a name. Then type Breakflare so you can recognize the key later. Create it with withdrawals disabled and spot trading enabled. Turn on Enable Futures only if you want Plus USD-M entries for coins that are not on Binance spot. Paste the API Key and Secret Key in the app under Settings → Trading agent. Keys that allow withdrawals are rejected at connect time. A self-generated Ed25519 or RSA key will not connect. Paper mode needs no keys. Live needs a trade-only key and credits. Full steps: Binance trade-only API key guide.

LunarCrush is strong for broad social analytics across the full market. Breakflare focuses on CoinGecko ranks 51-500 with a daily shortlist for attention, momentum, confidence, and rank climb toward the top 50. They complement rather than replace each other.

On-chain tools focus on wallet labels, flows, and network metrics. Breakflare blends social attention, market context, rank climb, and optional whale context into a daily research shortlist. Many people use both.

DexScreener is strong for live DEX pair discovery and charting. Breakflare is a daily ranked watchlist for attention, momentum, and top-50 climb framing. Different cadence and question.

It does not predict prices. Core research does not place orders by itself; optional Trading agent can place paper or live orders on your connected exchange. Early history is thin until daily runs accumulate. Signal coverage can vary by coin and day. Breakout Index™ ranks relative peers; it is not a guarantee of top-50 entry.

Breakflare fails gracefully. If a feed is missing, down, or over budget, that signal is skipped and remaining sources still produce a score with redistributed weight. Runs do not hard-fail on one source.

Stablecoins are excluded from breakout candidacy by design. Social chatter on pegged assets does not map cleanly to top-50 climb dynamics, so they are filtered from the breakout lens.
