REFERENCE / TESTNET BETA

Glossary and common questions.

Short definitions for the terms you will see throughout FETCHN.

Research terms

Reference price: The underlying asset price used as the starting point for an outlook; it is not the amount a testnet pool will pay you.
Forecast horizon: The future period the model evaluates, such as 24 hours or 7 days.
Probability: The model’s estimate that the underlying reference price will be higher at that horizon. It is not a guaranteed frequency or a profit probability.
Confidence: An evidence and agreement score attached to the forecast. It is not a guarantee that the probability is calibrated.
Growth outlook: A 0–100 directional research score across the 24H, 7D and 30D probability/confidence pairs.
Fresh analysis: A result recent enough for agent entry. The current agent requires a result less than 30 minutes old.

Vault: An on-chain contract associated with your wallet. It can hold a separate deposited balance or record bounded agent permissions for Wallet mode.
Allowance: A token-specific cap approved in your wallet for a contract. It is distinct from the agent’s daily USDG limit.
Pool liquidity: Assets available in the selected testnet AMM pool to exchange one token for another.
Quote / minimum output: The current estimated received amount and the lowest amount allowed by the transaction’s slippage bound.
Slippage: The permitted change between the reviewed quote and execution. The current testnet trade flow uses a 1% maximum.
Unrealized PnL: The difference between actual entry cost and a current executable exit estimate while a position remains open, excluding gas.
Realized PnL: The difference between actual entry cost and the confirmed sale proceeds after an exit, excluding gas.

Does starring a token let an agent spend my funds?: No. A star only saves a research selection. Automated trading needs an armed strategy and on-chain permission.
Why create a vault if I choose Wallet?: The contract stores your bounded agent authority. Wallet mode keeps the trading tokens in your wallet until an authorized transaction executes.
Can I buy a Stock Token directly with ETH?: Not through the current Stock Token route. It buys with test USDG. Use a quoted ETH → USDG conversion first if available, and keep ETH for gas.
Why did the agent not trade after a positive forecast?: The forecast may fail your thresholds or freshness rule, or the source balance, approval, operator gas, pool depth or quote may be insufficient. Read the Terminal’s status message.
Do I need a Robinhood brokerage account?: No. This flow uses an EVM wallet on Robinhood Chain Testnet and a third-party AMM pool; it does not place Robinhood brokerage orders.
