[ BUILD REQUESTS ]
Selective collaboration on custom algorithm development.
If you have a specific edge hypothesis and a NinjaTrader account to run it on, the build process is open by application.
01 / OFFER
What this is.
If you have a specific, testable edge hypothesis on a futures instrument, we are open to reviewing it for possible NinjaTrader 8 algorithm development on a case-by-case basis. The deliverable, if a request is accepted and scoped, is a NinjaScript strategy file that you load and operate on your own NinjaTrader account.
We do not manage funds. We do not place trades for anyone. We do not advise on positions. We do not sell signals or operate a call room.
If a request moves forward, ownership, usage rights, confidentiality, deliverables, and any collaboration terms are agreed in writing before development begins.
The intake form is only a review request. It is not a commitment by either side.
02 / THRESHOLD
The bar.
The threshold is the specificity of the idea, not the size of the account. Requests with a precise, testable hypothesis (specific instrument, specific session window, specific trigger condition, specific exit logic) get serious consideration. Requests that read like "build me something profitable" or "I want a strategy for ES" without further structure do not. Vague ideas are not actionable, and the validation pipeline cannot rescue a hypothesis that does not exist yet. We reserve the right to decline any request without explanation.
03 / PROCESS
The pipeline.
Build Process Steps
- 01. Intake: You submit the form below with a specific edge hypothesis and supporting detail.
- 02. Review: Your submission is read. If the idea is well-formed and worth building, you hear back. If not, you also hear back.
- 03. Scoping: A brief written exchange locks the exact rule set, instrument, session, and exit logic before any code is written.
- 04. Build & Validation: The strategy is coded in NinjaScript, simulated against historical data, and reconciled against the NinjaTrader replay engine.
- 05. Handoff: You receive the .cs file, a one-page validation summary, and the trade log from the validation run.
