Description of Services
-
Custom Software Development
We provide bespoke software development services, specializing in Pine Script, Python, and related technologies to build custom trading indicators, strategies, backtesters, and automated trading bots. Projects are defined on a case-by-case basis following a discovery call and a custom quote.
-
Upsells, Downsells & Other Products
We may offer additional or alternative products or services (e.g., one-time-payment TradingView indicators, courses, or other digital products) to prospects or Clients who do not qualify or opt for our main custom coding services. The availability, pricing, and terms for these unlisted offers are shared during the sales process at our discretion.
-
No Financial Advice
We do not provide investment, financial, or trading advice. All software and scripts are implemented based solely on your instructions and strategy. You are solely responsible for the decisions and outcomes resulting from the use of any software or scripts we develop.
-
-
Onboarding & Scope of Work
-
Consultation Call & Custom Quote
Prior to starting any project, you must schedule a consultation call via our booking system on the Site. During this call, we discuss requirements and provide a custom quote. We will subsequently send you a project agreement via our GoHighLevel platform (âProject Agreementâ), which may incorporate these Terms by reference.
-
Final Scope & Revisions
- The scope of work is primarily dictated by the discussion in the consultation call(which may be recorded).
- Any features, requirements, or deliverables not explicitly agreed upon during this call are considered out of scope, even if not clearly excluded in the Project Agreement.
- No free revisions are granted for additions or changes beyond what was agreed in the consultation call. Any additional work or revisions will incur extra charges at our discretion.
-
Estimated Timelines
We may provide an estimated timeframe for project completion, but this is not a guarantee. Delays may arise due to complexity, third-party dependencies, or Client responsiveness. We are not liable for any indirect costs, losses, or damages resulting from delays.
-
-
Payment Terms
-
Non-Refundable Retainer
- 50% Deposit: A non-refundable deposit (retainer) of 50% of the total quoted project cost is due upfront before we begin any development work.
- Remaining 50% : The balance is due upon completion of the project, prior to release or delivery of final code.
-
Payment Methods
Payments are processed through GoHighLevel with Stripe. We may also offer âbuy now, pay laterâ options or other Stripe-related payment methods at our discretion.
-
Refund Policy
All payments (including the 50% retainer) are non-refundable except in rare, case-by-case scenarios where we determine, in our sole discretion, that a refund is appropriate (e.g., we fail to deliver the agreed-upon scope due to our own fault).
-
Termination & Deposit Forfeiture
- If you cancel or terminate the project at any point, we retain the entire deposit.
- We reserve the right to terminate the project if you become unresponsive for an extended period, engage in fraudulent or nefarious activities, or otherwise breach these Terms. In such cases, the deposit is also forfeited.
-
No Late Fees
Because the final 50% must be paid before we deliver the completed work, we typically do not charge late fees or interest. If at any point a different payment schedule is negotiated, any late payments may be subject to additional terms outlined in the Project Agreement.
-
-
Ownership & Intellectual Property
-
Ownership Transfer
Ownership of the custom-coded project deliverables transfers to you only after we receive the final payment in full. Until payment is received, we retain all intellectual property rights to the deliverables.
-
Exclusions
Any products or services other than custom coding (e.g., courses, pre-coded products, indicators sold as-is) are not transferred in ownership unless explicitly stated in a separate agreement.
-
Reusability of Code
We reserve the right to reuse, modify, or incorporate any general methods, boilerplate code, or libraries that we created independently of your proprietary logic. We will not disclose or reuse unique trading logic or confidential details specific to your strategy.

Confidentiality

Initial Bug Fix Period
We provide a 1-month bug fix window from the date of final delivery, during which we will correct any material errors or omissions that deviate from the agreed-upon functionality in the consultation call.
-
Maintenance Packages
- No Ongoing Liability by Default : If you do not purchase a separate maintenance package, we bear no obligation to update, modify, or ensure compatibility of your custom-coded solution after delivery.
- Tiered Maintenance : We may offer separate maintenance plans (monthly or yearly) covering various levels of updates, bug fixes, or service changes (e.g., third-party API modifications). If you are subscribed to such a plan, our liability to fix or update code is limited to the scope of that specific plan.
- Service Changes : If a core component or third-party service becomes unavailable, requiring significant rework, whether it is covered depends on your chosen plan. If covered, our maximum liability is limited to the amount paid under that maintenance plan.
-
No Financial Guarantees

-
