Clear answers. Before you decide.

Yes. Strike Algo is software from Capital B28, a San Diego company founded on August 28, 2020. Its full model record from April 1, 2020 to October 9, 2026 was examined by Alpha Performance Verification Services, in a report signed by a CPA and CFA charterholder. Interactive Brokers lists Alpha as one of its preferred performance verification providers. Strike runs in your own Interactive Brokers account, and Capital B28 never holds client money.

No. A scam needs your money, and Strike never touches it. It runs in an Interactive Brokers account opened in your name, every trade appears there the moment it happens, and Capital B28 cannot hold, pool or withdraw client funds. You license the software and keep 100% of what your account makes.

Alpha Performance Verification Services of Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. The report is signed by Michael W. Hultzapple, CPA, CFA, CIPM, and dated October 12, 2026. They examined every month since April 2020. You can call them yourself at (804) 677-4343.

The record is the Strike model strategy run on six and a half years of real market data, with the same rules start to finish. The verifier's notes describe it as model back-tested results, gross of fees and transaction costs. It is not the record of any client account, and your own results will differ with when you start, fills, fees and taxes.

Firms, not strategies, claim GIPS compliance, so no honest strategy says "GIPS-certified." Strike's record was examined by Alpha Performance Verification Services, an independent firm that does GIPS verifications, and the verifier concluded the record is accurately presented.

Not all of them, and we label it. The results wall comes from the Capital B28 community across all of our programs, including our trading education. They are not Strike results unless stated, they are not typical, and they are not a promise. Strike's own numbers are the verified model record.

Because Strike is software, not a fund. You license it, it runs in your account, and you keep 100% of what your account makes. It trades among about 450 of the most liquid U.S. stocks, on exchanges that trade about $600 billion a day, deep enough that 20 names can be bought or sold any day.

No. Strike runs in your own Interactive Brokers account, in your name. Capital B28 never holds, pools or withdraws client funds.

No. Strike gets exactly one permission: placing trades. Withdrawal access: never. You deposit, withdraw and log in to Interactive Brokers directly, any day.

Your money and positions are in your Interactive Brokers account the whole time. If anything happened to Capital B28, they would still be sitting there, in your name.

Interactive Brokers, a FINRA member and one of the largest regulated brokers in the U.S. SIPC covers broker failure, not market losses.

Pause the system or close the account any day. It's your account.

No. Capital B28 provides software. It is not a registered investment adviser or broker-dealer and does not manage or hold client funds.

Yes. The record has losing months, a -22.1% month in July 2026 and a deepest drawdown of 37%. If a drop like that would make you sell, Strike isn't for you. Never trade money you can't afford to lose.

Deepest drawdown 37.0%, against 25.4% for the S&P 500. Worst month: July 2026 at -22.1%. 2021 was nearly flat at +0.4% while the S&P 500 gained 27%, and the S&P also beat Strike in 2023. Every month is published.

Timing changes your result, and nobody can pick the month. Momentum pays in bursts: 2020, 2024 and 2026 did most of the work on the record. The people who do well stay through the flat stretches.

Not exactly. The record is gross of fees and costs, and your results will differ with when you start, fills, fees and taxes. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

You can. MTUM holds about 125 stocks for broad, steady momentum exposure. Strike holds only the top 20. $100,000 from April 2020 to September 2026: Strike's verified model record about $1,055,200, MTUM about $318,300. Strike swings harder both ways.

Strike's verified first half of 2026, +50.6%, would have ranked fifth among publicized hedge fund returns, ahead of Citadel, Millennium and Bridgewater. Its July 2026 was -22.1%.

Yes. The system picks the stocks and tells you when it rotates. Your part is about 5 to 15 minutes a month to confirm the rebalance.

No. It's a rules-based system built on the momentum effect published in the Journal of Finance in 1993. It ranks about 450 liquid U.S. stocks every day, holds the strongest 20 and rotates once a month.

U.S.-listed companies only: names like Nvidia, Netflix and GE. Long-only, no shorting. No forex, no crypto, nothing through a broker in another country.

None in the standard strategy. 20 stocks, roughly equal weight.

Most bots find one pattern in a few years of history and break when the market changes. Strike ranks the whole market on one momentum scale every day and follows leadership as it rotates between sectors, with the same rules since 2020.

It ranks stocks every day and rotates the portfolio once a month on a fixed schedule.

Strike works best with at least $53,000 in the account so it can hold all 20 positions properly. Below that, positions get too small and results drift from the record.

Yes. Paper trade first and watch Strike run live with no money at risk. Most people do.

Anyone who would need to borrow to fund it, money you may need in the next couple of years, and anyone looking for a guaranteed return. Nobody honest can offer one.

You could. Published 2026 figures put year one at about $258,129 for a quant developer, a dashboard build and data, with 9 to 12 months of work and zero years of track record on day one.

A specialist sets it up with you one-on-one: Interactive Brokers setup, a dashboard walkthrough and your first rebalance together.

Strike rotates monthly, so ask a tax advisor how that applies to you. Capital B28 does not give tax advice.
