Inside the Book’s Practical Appendices and Checklists

Beyond its ninety-five chapters, How Not to Get Scammed by AI Trading Apps includes a genuinely valuable set of appendices that Felix Bick designed specifically for quick, practical reference rather than cover-to-cover reading.

The appendices include an AI Trading App Evaluation Checklist, a Trading Bot Evaluation Worksheet, a Crypto Token Due Diligence Checklist, a dedicated Rug Pull Warning Signs list, a Ponzi Scheme Detection Guide, guidance on How to Evaluate an Investment Course, a reference for Recognizing Fake Financial News, a comprehensive list of Questions to Ask Before Investing, a Glossary of AI, Trading, and Cryptocurrency Terms, and a compiled list of Useful Resources and Investor Protection Organizations.

This structure reflects Bick’s practical intent for the book as a whole — it’s designed to be used, not just read once. Someone evaluating a specific opportunity can go directly to the relevant checklist without needing to re-read the full chapter discussion behind it, making the book genuinely useful as an ongoing reference rather than a single-pass educational read.

The glossary in particular addresses a real barrier for newer investors — much of the terminology across AI, trading, and cryptocurrency can be genuinely intimidating, and having accessible, jargon-free definitions available in one place lowers the barrier to engaging critically with claims made in this space.

For readers who want to apply the book’s lessons systematically rather than relying on memory alone, these appendices transform How Not to Get Scammed by AI Trading Apps from a one-time read into a genuinely durable reference tool — exactly the kind of resource worth keeping on hand for the next time an intriguing but unfamiliar investment opportunity comes along.
