Reading the evidence

Documentation research, not account or execution testing. Research regions do not establish residence eligibility. Requires Verification is an evidence gap, not proof of unavailability. Source conflicts and product/entity qualifications must remain attached to claims. Demo results do not establish live trading performance.
