Free Registration Guide
Read our research and latest trading records for free.
This page explains what you can read without registering and what free membership adds. AlpAI Lab publishes records of live trading with our own funds, along with analysis and testing of investment ideas and our actual trading results.
Register for free Log in if you are already registered
For the first 30 days after publication, the full Daily and Weekly articles are available to free members. Articles open to everyone after the 30-day early-access period. Free members can continue to read the full text of both the latest and past articles.
Theme Research and Performance can be read without registering from the start. Articles that were already public remain readable as before.
Free membership registration requires an email address and answers to a 4-question survey. We use the answers to edit the site and to improve how we guide you to the content you want to read. We do not ask about gender, income, or investable funds.
No credit card registration is required. Registering involves no fees or automatic charges.
What you can read
| Content | What you can read |
|---|---|
| Theme Research | Read the full text without registering. You can see the conditions we tested, the results, and what we learned, along with the limitations. |
| Performance | Viewable without registering. We publish whole-account performance, comparisons with the market, and drawdowns along the way. |
| Daily | Titles, introductions, and similar parts can be read without registering. For the first 30 days after publication, free registration lets you read in full the trading decisions and trades for that day. The full article opens to everyone after the 30-day early-access period. |
| Weekly | Titles, introductions, and similar parts can be read without registering. For the first 30 days after publication, free registration lets you read in full our review of the week's market moves, trends over several weeks, and what to watch next. The full article opens to everyone after the 30-day early-access period. |
Articles that were already published in full remain readable without registering. Articles available to free members are labeled as such. The already published "Verification of Past Articles" can also be read without registering.
Registration and how to read
On the registration page, enter your email address and answer the 4-question survey. When your registration is accepted, we request that a login email be sent to you. Opening the link in the email you receive completes identity verification, and you can then log in and read the full text of articles for free members. We will not ask people who are already registered to answer the survey again. You do not need to sign up separately for Daily and Weekly.
The 30 days is the early-access period for each article. It is not the validity period of a free membership. Free members can still read older articles that have become public, as before. Articles may open to everyone later than the exact 30-day mark.
Articles are meant to be read on this site. We do not currently deliver articles by email. We do send emails for registration and login. At registration, you can optionally choose whether you would like future announcement emails, but this is only a provisional record of your preference. We are not currently sending announcement emails either, and we will confirm your consent again before we do.
Daily covers individual US trading days. Weekly reviews the US trading week. English editions follow the Japanese issues once the records and English copy have been checked.
About the articles
We publish trading decisions for our own account and research on investment methods. We distinguish decisions from trades that were actually executed.
We do not provide individual investment advice or manage readers' funds. Nothing here recommends that readers make the same trades or guarantees the same results. Past trading results and estimates do not guarantee future results.
For how the articles are positioned, please see Research and Publication Policy and Notices.
Possible future paid service and benefits for early members
The service is currently free. In the future, we may offer a paid subscription on the official AlpAI website. If we do, we plan to give early members who registered for free early a benefit: they will be able to keep reading for free for a certain period after the paid service begins. The eligibility conditions, eligible articles, free period, and pricing will be announced in advance when they are decided.
This free registration alone will not convert into a paid contract or automatically incur any charges. If you wish to use a paid service, you will be asked to sign up again.
Substack and note
AlpAI Lab on Substack publishes short articles in English about our research. The Japanese publication on note explains selected studies and tests. Full research, account performance, and the Daily and Weekly archives are here on AlpAI Lab.
