Frequently asked questions
What is NEXUS DAO?
NEXUS DAO is an independent trading terminal. It compares prop firms, FX brokers and crypto exchanges with a numbered official source and a research date on each figure, and offers indicator, pattern and strategy guides plus a free Discord community.
How are the transparency scores calculated?
Each provider is scored from 0 to 10 on seven axes that describe how clear and comparable its published information is. An axis without a basis is shown as N/A, not 0, and a total is shown only when at least 80% of the axes are valid. It is not a rating of safety or profitability, and it is not a recommendation.
Is the Discord free?
Yes, the community is free. The join page first shows partner-broker account options (IC Markets, Exness or XS), because the bonus signals, including XAUUSD, are linked to opening an account through those partner links. Affiliate links are disclosed next to every button.
Do you guarantee profits or a pass rate?
No. Signals and guides are educational. Trading carries a risk of losing capital, and prop firm challenges charge a fee without guaranteeing a pass or a reward.
