HOW THESE ARE MADE
Profiles are compiled by MarketFramework editorial from public sources (the creator's own channels, interviews and published work) with research assistance from AI tooling and human review before publication. Every substantive claim carries a dated source link. Follower counts and content lists show the date they were observed.
WHAT WE DON'T PUBLISH
We do not estimate net worth, publish unverified performance figures in our own voice, or host creators' photographs. Profit figures stated by a creator are labelled as theirs and are not independently verified. Prop-firm relationships appear only with dated public evidence.
CORRECTIONS & REMOVAL
Featured and something's wrong, or you'd rather not be listed? Email [email protected]. We correct errors promptly and honour removal requests without conditions.
MarketFramework is operated by MyFundedFutures, a futures prop firm. These profiles are editorial and are not endorsements, of the creators or by them. Nothing here is trading advice; trading futures involves substantial risk of loss.
