Trading signal / investment alert subscriptions (mostly annual, delivered by email, no ads): a solo founder hit $9k/month in 12 months, listed at 3.8x revenue. The only gap to trading bots is regulation.

- Why now, and how long the window lasts
- 'Annual plans + email delivery + zero ads' lets a solo signal service reach a 77% profit margin, with multiples close to the top of SaaS; but revenue is tied to performance and market conditions, and falls off if the market dips for a quarter (92wuubfl65's run-rate 0.63). This is not a window-type opportunity but a small business that exists long-term. The difference from trading bots ([084]) is that it doesn't place orders for users, so the regulatory burden is noticeably lighter.
- Confidence
- Low. Few samples, all seller-entered, no completed sales. What would overturn this: gvsf9enhrc cuts price or pulls the listing within 30 days. What would upgrade it: a comparable completed sale appears in the database, or several indie signal subscriptions with monthly revenue above $5k show up.

Already doing it
Those three are the listings; on indie, Zero G Trading and a batch of paid Discord / Whop groups.
The hardest step
Credibility of track record and compliance. Signals need public, verifiable history; many countries require licensing for 'investment advice' (inferred: the US publisher exemption requires content not to be tailored to individuals).
Who it's for
People who actually trade and have a public record; annual subscriptions, delivered by email or Discord.
Should every product builder know this?
No.

Backfill check: all four listings still for sale, none cut in price. 92wuubfl65's report says '$212k ARR' (the headline figure); the database TTM is $260,900, and last month's annualized figure is only 63% of TTM. The report does not mention that it is declining.
