TradeAlmanac editorial desk: how material is made
TradeAlmanac material carries a byline: this page says who runs it, how the numbers are checked and what to do if you spot an error.
The desk
- StanislavEditor-in-chiefCalculation methodology, editorial standards, section scope
Runs the calculation methodology and the editorial standards: which data sources are used, how metrics are computed, how material is checked before publication and how corrections are made.
On the desk since May 2026
What the desk works on
| What the desk works on | Editor | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Data methodology | Stanislav | How each metric is computed, which source it comes from, over which period, and what happens when the source stays silent. |
| Content editing | Stanislav | Pre-publication review of journal and glossary texts: product links, sources for external facts, no market numbers typed by hand. |
| Automated material | Stanislav | The daily brief and the weekly issuer review: selection rules, which numbers appear, and when a release is withheld because data is incomplete. |
| Corrections | Stanislav | Handling error reports, checking against the primary source, publishing the correction and the new revision time. |
