CAGR: 81%* (Average annual growth rate) - Nasdaq CAGR: 41%* (Average annual growth rate) - DJ30 Automatic scaling, position size customizable Long and short strategy Majority of our algorithms are trend-followers — simply because, historically, that type of strategy has tended to perform best over the long run. When markets establish clear trends, trend-following can be extremely effective. But markets don’t always trend. At times, the market shifts into a different regime: sideways price action, sharp reversals, and “risk on/risk off” behavior where direction changes quickly and trends become short, choppy — or disappear entirely. In those environments, trend-following algorithms can struggle to deliver. That’s why we’re now launching a new category of algorithms built around momentum breakouts. Instead of trying to ride a long trend, these algos are designed to react fast to impulsive, explosive breakouts — both long and short. When momentum accelerates, the strategy steps in, follows the move, and exits as the energy fades. The goal is to capture the “fast legs” of the market: the moves that often occur when price breaks an important level, volatility expands, and order flow pushes the market quickly in one direction. This makes them a powerful complement to our trend-following strategies — especially during periods when the market lacks a clear direction. Adaptive risk — built for real-world volatility Momentum breakouts often occur in environments where volatility can change rapidly. That’s why these algos are designed to adapt their risk to the market’s volatility. In practice, the algorithm dynamically adjusts stop loss and take profit based on current volatility — so levels aren’t set too tight when volatility is high, and not unnecessarily wide when conditions are calmer. On top of that, we’ve built in a clear per-trade risk cap, where you choose the maximum percentage of your capital you’re willing to risk — for example 2% per trade. If volatility is high and the stop loss needs to be placed further away, the algo will automatically scale down position size (contracts/lot size) to ensure it does not exceed your defined maximum risk. In other words: risk control is built into the system. The strategy adapts — without breaking your risk rules. Why this matters in a portfolio Momentum Breakout algos can help you: Diversify and reduce reliance on a single market regime Offset performance during choppy, range-bound periods Benefit from fast price expansions when markets suddenly “wake up” Keep risk consistent even as volatility changes In short: when the market isn’t trending, you want a strategy designed to perform anyway — with risk management built to function in practice. All numbers if not stated otherwise, are based on backtesting results with our default start settings (3% risk algo, with €3,000 in starting capital). Historical returns are no guarantee of future returns. We do not offer any type of financial advice or recommendation and you must always make your own judgment about what risk you are willing to take when running our algos. Also keep in mind that demo and live environments always can differ.
