What is the AAOIFI Shari'a Standard?

Standard No. 21, from the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions, sets three thresholds for a stock to be treated as halal: debt, liquid assets, and the share of non-compliant income. We apply this standard in our own screener. Full methodology: /methodology.

Why the ratio matters, not the price

Whether a stock is expensive or cheap has nothing to do with whether it's halal. What matters is the debt and interest-bearing assets on the balance sheet. That's why screening re-runs every quarter when filings update, regardless of price action.

Technical signal vs. guarantee

A signal is a notification that fires when a defined rule is met (e.g. a breakout confirmed by volume). It expresses a probability, not an outcome. TP/SL are risk-planning tools, not guarantees.

How to test a strategy on a demo account

Testing any strategy for the first time with real money is risky. A paper account runs at real market prices but sends no orders to an exchange — a safe place to get a feel for the strategy itself.

Position sizing and risk/reward basics

Before every trade, answer two questions: how much are you willing to lose (position size), and how does potential gain compare to potential loss (risk/reward). The calculators section works out both before you trade.

Why Telegram delivery helps

On Telegram, a signal arrives with its chart attached — no need to open a separate window to look it up. Linking an account takes one tap: /start, share your number, confirm.
