We know where to look.
World State Trading is an automated research system. It watches the world in real time: the news, 28 global shipping lanes, and the market’s own gauges. Every morning it turns into one plain answer: what changed overnight, where to look, and which investments it touches. The whole desk costs less than one bad trade.
Paid plans add trade ideas. You get lists of stocks to watch, and each list keeps its own public record.
In your inbox before the open, every trading day.

Is this a newsletter?
No. The email is how it reaches you; the desk is the product. That desk is the world map, the Newswatch, Insider Trading and Income books, and the live dashboard for members on the Desk plan.
Is this financial advice?
No. World State Trading provides general market commentary for informational purposes only. Every call is system-generated and impersonal, not tailored to any individual portfolio.
Do you promise returns?
No. Nobody can, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Every call stays on the record, including the ones that lost.
What if a pick loses?
Some will. Each book shows its losers next to its winners on the track record page. Once a call is published, it stays on the record.
Do you tell me what to buy or how much?
No. The research is not written for your situation, so there are no position sizes and no entry, stop or target instructions.
Is my card safe?
You pay on a checkout page run by Stripe, the payments company. Your card number goes to Stripe and never touches our servers.
When does billing start?
Right away. Every plan bills on day one, and you get the full month or year you paid for. The free tier is the way to look around first.
What does the annual plan save?
Two months. The Brief plan is $490/yr (vs $588 paid monthly) and the Desk plan is $790/yr (vs $948).
Can I buy one book without a plan?
Yes. The Income Book is $29/mo on its own. The Insider Trading Book is also $29/mo, and the Newswatch Book is $49/mo. Books do not stack on the Brief plan. A member on the Brief plan who wants Insider Trading or Newswatch is better off on the Desk plan, which includes all three.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from your account page at any time. No lock-in, no penalties, no questions asked.
How is the Newswatch Book built?
Twelve market gauges, each with its own measured history, plus the week's news, read together. The book is written once a week and frozen. No rewriting.
What's the track record?
Look at the books, not a single number: each book publishes its own record on the track record page, as it happens.
When do I get it?
The News Watch lands every trading morning before the open. The Newswatch Book publishes weekly for members on the Desk plan. The dashboard runs live all session for members on the Desk plan.
What does the dashboard show on the Desk plan?
The world map with the week's news, the News Watch drawer, every book, and market weather. Plus everything in the Brief plan.
How do I get help?
Email support@thesignaltrading.com and we respond within 24 hours on trading days.
