Corrections
Corrections Policy
Errors happen, particularly on fast-moving markets coverage. When they happen, we fix them publicly, with timestamps, and without quietly rewriting history.
What we treat as an error
We distinguish three categories:
- Factual error. A specific claim (price, earnings figure, ticker, date, quote attribution) is wrong. We correct these immediately and append a visible correction note on the article.
- Update.New information supersedes what was originally published. We add an "Update" line with the new information and timestamp. Original text remains readable.
- Opinion or analysis.Our Alpha Score, market commentary, or trading setup interpretation. These are not "errors" to be corrected but judgments we may revise in subsequent coverage. If we change our view, we say so in a new piece.
Our workflow
- Report received (via email to corrections@alphascala.com or the contact form).
- Acknowledgment sent within one business day.
- Claim is verified against the source of the original fact. If confirmed as an error, correction is drafted.
- Article is updated with a visible correction note: "Corrected [date]: an earlier version of this article stated X. The correct figure is Y. Source: [link]."
- The correction is logged in our internal corrections record.
- If the error materially affected a trading decision a reader might have made, we notify the reader who reported the issue directly.
What we do not do
- We do not silently edit published articles after the fact.
- We do not unpublish articles to hide errors. Removed content is noted as such.
- We do not treat negative coverage requests from companies, brokers, or tickers as correction requests.
- We do not correct matters of opinion or analysis under this policy.
Report a correction
Found a factual error? Email corrections@alphascala.com with:
- Link to the article
- The specific claim that is wrong
- What the correct information should be, with a source (if available)
We aim to acknowledge within one business day and publish corrections within three business days (faster for material trading-relevant errors).
