Platform

Automated Nasdaq trading in your own brokerage account

Forward Edge connects to an eligible Tradovate, NinjaTrader, or TradeStation account and trades Nasdaq futures using the strategy you select. The software runs on our servers and is designed to close positions at the strategy's scheduled closing time.

Direct broker connection

Connect an eligible Tradovate, NinjaTrader, or TradeStation account from the dashboard. The account stays in your name. Funds stay at the broker.

Automated futures execution

When enabled, the selected strategy checks for trades, submits orders when its rules are met, and adds a stop-loss order after entry. Trades follow preset rules.

Runs even when you're away

The software runs on our servers. You do not need to leave your computer on or keep a charting app open for it to submit orders.

Live and demo support

Connect a demo account first to try the setup and controls. Review your account, contract size, and risk settings before enabling a live account.

Built-in risk management

Stop-loss rules, contract limits based on your plan and balance, and scheduled position closing help manage risk. The strategies are designed for day trading.

Software pricing, not a performance fee

Plans are billed annually and priced by account and contract limits. All four strategies are included. Forward Edge does not take a share of your trading profits.

Four strategies

Choose the Nasdaq system that runs on each account

AutoTrader, Hybrid Trader, Zone Trader, and Master Trader each follow different trading rules. Choose a strategy in your account settings. Tradovate accounts can add a different second strategy, with one using NQ and the other MNQ. Both share the account's balance and plan limits.

AutoTrader

A scheduled Nasdaq strategy that uses market-direction filters, predefined stops, and a scheduled close. Review its session timing and losing periods.

View hypothetical results

Hybrid Trader

Combines continuation setups that follow a move with reversal setups that look for a change in direction. Entry and exit rules differ by setup.

View hypothetical results

Zone Trader

Looks for trades around predefined price zones. Each entry requires a profit target and a stop-loss level.

View hypothetical results

Master Trader

Coordinates Zone, Hybrid, and Auction setups under shared position limits. Compare combined exposure and overlapping setups as well as returns.
