December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers, was not the official month of leverage trading. Out of a sudden, there have been strong up moves, which required a fast switch of the “short! short! short!” mindset. The sentiment has changed and not all adapted to the winds of change on spot.
However, we can still see some great results, and I can wait to present you the WEIRD results this month has brought to us! Especially the BitMEX providers have been shaken through and the results will surprise you. Well, this is data analysis for you – the numbers suggest sometimes things that feel unfair – but it is all about the long-term, you cannot figure out who the best provider is by looking at a single month.
Profitability proves over time! Can our latest Binance Signal Provider keep up with the prior results and stay on #1? Where will be our new signal provider “BitMEX Syndicate” be ranked in the listing? Let’s see how the Consistency Rate of the crypto signal providers has changed – we are in month #4 of results tracking. Remember: The more months we use as a base of data, the more reliable and meaningful is the ranking of the December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers.
We selected the best Crypto Signals Providers for Altcoins & Bitmex and on the Discord platform – these are our permanently most read posts and we are proud for each of the listed providers. They all provide consistent great results, but we find it important to track their results to make sure we recommend you the best. We will analyze the results of our listed signal providers on a monthly base and give you a brief overview of what job they did for their money
Important Note: Our main determinant is the overall consistency. Crypto is no overnight-riches and we want to help you to find the best partner for your trading venture. Therefore we make use of a custom formula to calculate the consistency of success for these providers. The formula for the consistency rate has been slightly updated: (Overall Account Growth Potential + (Overall Success Rate x # of Months tracked) / (# of Months tracked). This consistency rating will reflect the provider ranking in the particular posts.

December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers – Overview Table All Signal Providers
NOTE: The past performance of a provider is no guarantee or indicative of future results. Don’t execute financial decisions on this information alone.
Notes:
December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers: Many providers set up multiple targets to take profit. Once Target 1 has been hit, it is advised to set the stop loss at the entry. This way the profit of Target 1 is secured and the rest of the capital is not at risk anymore.
To calculate the AGP (Account Growth Potential) we calculated the number from trade to trade, very simple but effective accounting: Trade 1 +18%, Trade 2 +50%, Trade 3 -25%, Trade 4 31% would result in a AGP of 74% (18+50=68, 68-25=43, 43+31=74, 74-+… – you get it). It is important to know that these figures are not the numbers you will gain in your account, as you take your profit it in steps at each Take Profit point. How much you take out at each step is up to you alone and a factor we cannot calculate here, as it is very individual. To be able to measure we have to calculate the profits from entry to the maximum target reached, expecting you move your stop loss to entry once Take Profit 1 has been reached. Please understand this is the only objective way we can use to measure the success of a group and the gain numbers are not meant as what you will actually gain.
Some Providers achieve their results with quantitative trading – keep in mind that you have to be active around to participate in all of them to achieve similar results. Also, you’d have to adjust stop-loss once target 1 has been hit, which is not always possible if you don’t have help by a bot or an auto trader service.
Some signal providers focus more on long-term gems and getting them for the best prices in the current bear market. These cannot be evaluated properly in this post as the time window exceeds the frame of this post. They focus more on making use of the current market sentiment to build a rock-solid portfolio until crypto prices, in general, pick up again. These providers are marked with a special note.
As this tracker will be maintained from month to month, there will be trades, which are yet running. We calculate the results by the time of writing. Means if we check Group A on November 4th we will consider everything that has been achieved with October issued trades, even if a target hit on November 3rd. If a target hits once we finalized the tracking, it will be counted in the next month, as we work from updated results there.
Please be aware that we do not check each signal in the sheets and verify it, our team is too small to do that in a timely manner. The numbers are provided by the channels and we check samples for each month and provider. However, it would be highly risky for a signal provider to provide inaccuratenumbers. If done by intention we would exclude them from SmartOptions and the community would spot their errors.
Past results cannot speak for future results, you should consider more than plain numbers.
Even a provider has outstanding results, mind the money management. All providers have good and bad months – this is normal for every trader, for every business. So you don’t want to go all in with the first trade you see, just because he had an 80% hit rate in the prior month. It is all about long-term consistency – never forget that!
What you should look for in finding a long-term partner for crypto signals, is the Consistency Rate. We calculate it by the following formula (Overall Account Growth Potential + (Overall Success Rate x # of Months tracked)) / (# of Months tracked). The accuracy is counted with more weight as we think it is very important, as it defines the chances of catching a winning trade. The value is multiplied with the number of months tracked, as we value long-term accuracy The ranking in the particular posts is now based on the consistency rate.
As we consider multiple months here and by the time of writing not all trades are closed already, we re-assess the numbers from last month and calculate from there. The base for the new numbers this month is not the last performance tracker, but the actual results sheet by the providers and their updated numbers.
This month we had to introduce a high leverage penalty for the rating. Our official position is never to exceed 10x leverage. If one of the listed signal providers exceeds this, we deduct the AGP value by 50%.
December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers. The calculations are based on the result tracking sheets of the providers and have been checked and calculated by Steve McKenzie.

Comment: December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers. VMT kept the fire they found back in November and came with a wonderful accuracy in December! Great gains, a convenient auto trader and fantastic traders in their team. Congratulations to move up to #1 in this very difficult month.
Comment: December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers: Now, this might come pretty strange – 0% ROE in December and a push to #2? How can this be? The reason is the very strong track record of the months before. As said in the review, BitMEX Syndicate offers not many signals, but a hardcore accuracy, look through the months before to get the greater picture. Syndicate does not rush into any trades and we can see them bringing solid gains in the future. Very curious how January will turn out!
Comment: December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers: CryptoMedics sensed the sentiment change on the markets and adapted their strategy. This month they switched more to scalp trades to face the uncertainty for bigger moves. The AGP might be smaller than usual this month, but it shows actually that they actively monitor the markets and react accordingly to it. The downgrade in their ranking might be a bummer, but in this case, it has the meaning of responsible adaption.

Comment: December’18 Best Crypto Signal Providers: The second month of Yo Crypto becoming the most accurate Provider on SmartOptions. Ronny really knows his stuff and the only thing why he did not rank higher yet are the smaller targets. However, I am confident that we will see him on #1 one day.

Comment: I always feel bad when running Margin Signals through our calculators. They run really high returns in the accounts of their users, especially with the auto trader – but the numbers here, don’t reflect them well. I have my auto trader account running with them for the upcoming auto trader post, and the growth there is really good – and that while following very strict rules. Why are these fantastic providers on #5 now? The reason is they don’t work with staggered entries and multiple take profit points like the other groups, this brings a disadvantage in the numbers for them – as these 280% profits reflect the REAL profits which would have landed in your account and not only a theoretical value. We are looking into a mathematical solution to get a more fair ranking next month. Great Job, guys!

Be careful mates, Crypto Addicts are terrible and are cheating you to be ranked decently!!! The result sheet they send you is an absolute joke and completly wrong, I’ve checked it against the results that i get after each trades from the bot. They don’t mention the losses when a trade reach the stop losses and with a winning trade they use the “% max gain” which does not match with their targets… It’s just the max % of the day or so, I don’t even know! Please let me send you the results that I get from the bot after each trades with a standard 10% capital risk and 10x leverage for their bitmex bot. It is absolutely different result = big losses !!
Why do you think they do a 50% discount to subscription now lol ?
I have lost a lot of money with them… they use an IA to create some weird crappy signals, they are not good traders, they only know basic TA like you and me.
They ripped you off twice with the awards you gave them, beware seriously…
Adrian, thank you for your message. But you are mixing stuff up a bit: 1. This rating here is NOT about their Bitmex service but their Binance signals, which have been cross checked on samples. I also did run their Binance auto trader on my own account and can confirm the results. 2. The AI you are talking about is not even live to the public only to a group of Beta testers. 3. For the calculations, we never used the max % only the targets. However, with the auto trader and a good configuration (trailing stop) you can achieve even results near the max gains. For us, we vouch for their Binance signals, which have shown to come with a reliable success rate over time.
Hey John, we cannot audit 100% of the trades as it would be too many. Though, we do sample checks. Please take the 10 minutes to read how the rankings are evaluated, it is all explained above.

If cryptopro is the best damn all the discord groups are garbage. Is the sheet audited?
Hey John, we cannot audit 100% of the trades as it would be too many. Though, we do sample checks. Please take the 10 minutes to read how the rankings are evaluated, it is all explained above.
cryptopro had a pretty good start of the month but went terrible then, 1 liquidation and something like 15 to 20 stop-losses on a row, unbelieveble
