Telegram signal channels announce 37 targets hit for every stop loss they admit
Verpips publishes the first edition of its quarterly report, “The State of Telegram Signal Channels,” covering 2,471 channels reviewed and every signal tested against the real price.
Telegram trading signal channels announce their wins far more often than their losses. That is the main finding of the first edition of the Verpips quarterly report, which reviewed 2,471 channels and read 147,560 messages posted through September 30, 2026.
Of the 16 fully audited channels, with 1,864 trades tested tick by tick against the real price, none is proven profitable.
The report publishes aggregate numbers only, without naming any channel, along with its method and what can’t be concluded from it. The data can be downloaded as a CSV file and, like the charts, is published under a CC BY 4.0 license: it can be reused with credit to Verpips as the source. Read the full report.
