Trading Bot Guarantees: Read the Conditions, Not the Number of Days

Every vendor in this category leads with a number of days, because it is the part that fits on a button. Thirty days sounds better than seven, and it tells you almost nothing.

What decides whether you actually get money back is the list of conditions underneath, and those vary enormously. A thirty day window that requires evidence nobody keeps is worth less than a seven day window that asks for something you will have anyway.

So the comparison worth making is not length against length. It is whether you could satisfy the conditions on the worst realistic day, which is the day you would be using the guarantee.

Read for these specifically, in any policy, and you will know within two minutes what you are buying.

Proof of use. Almost every real policy requires that the product was actually run, which is reasonable. What matters is what form of proof is demanded and whether it is something you naturally have, such as a platform statement, or something you would have to plan for in advance.

Required settings. Many policies only cover the product used as recommended. That is fair and it has a sharp edge: if you modified the configuration or used an aggressive preset, you may be outside the policy without realising it.

The definition of failure. Some policies cover the product not working. Some cover the product not being profitable. Those are very different, and a policy that pays out on an unprofitable period is more generous than one that pays out only on a technical defect.

How the request is made and by when, including which channel counts. And when the money actually moves, which for card refunds is typically days and for crypto involves network fees and an exchange rate at the moment of refund rather than at purchase.

The related test, on whether evidence a vendor shows you is checkable at all, is in prop firm payout proof.

It sounds like the strongest possible promise and it is usually one of two things.

Either it is not literally true, and the conditions appear when you ask, which is the worst moment to discover them. Or it is true, in which case the vendor has priced refund abuse into what everybody pays, and you are subsidising the people who take the product for free.

Neither is a scandal. Both are worth understanding before treating an unconditional promise as a mark of confidence rather than a pricing decision.

The version of this test applied to demo footage rather than refund terms is in how to read a trading robot demo video.

It would be a poor article that applied this test to everyone except us, so here is ours against the same list.

The window is seven calendar days from the purchase date, which is shorter than several competitors advertise. Proof of use requires the software active for at least four full trading days with a verifiable trading history from the account it ran on, which is a platform statement rather than anything exotic. Required settings are the official conservative or balanced presets rather than the aggressive one or a modified file. Failure is defined as results over the period that were not profitable. The request goes to support, in writing, inside the window.

Where that sits honestly: shorter window than the loudest promises in this market, real conditions rather than none, and a definition of failure that is on the generous side because it covers an unprofitable period rather than only a technical defect. The four trading day requirement is the clause most likely to catch someone out, which is why we would rather you read it now.

Every condition is published on the refund policy page, and the version in effect is the one published on your purchase date.

A refund returns what you paid for software. It does not return an evaluation fee, a month of a server, or the weeks you spent.

That is why the useful work happens before the purchase rather than after it. Confirming your firm permits automated execution costs nothing. Deciding honestly whether your losses come from analysis or from execution costs nothing. Both are in who should not buy PraxAI, and either one can save you more than any guarantee ever pays out.
