How it works

Four steps. No discretion.

Large players leave imbalances behind when they move price. The model waits for those areas to be defended, then confirms the turn before it risks anything.

STEP 01

Context

Higher-timeframe imbalance areas are mapped and kept current automatically.

STEP 02

Reaction

Price has to show that an area is being defended. A touch alone is not enough.

STEP 03

Confirmation

A lower-timeframe market structure shift confirms the turn before any order.

STEP 04

Execution

A limit entry with a defined stop, partial profit at target and a trailed runner.

Performance

Four years. Every trade counted.

146 trades from July 2022 to September 2026, with costs on every one. Profitable in all five calendar years and in 71% of months.

New · Free Add

More return. Same drawdown.

Once a trade reaches breakeven, the model may add one extra position on the next pullback. The add only opens when the first trade can no longer lose, so your risk at entry never goes above one position.

How the test was run
  • $100k two-step challenge: 8% then 5% profit target, 10% maximum loss.
  • 1% risk per trade, the same rules as the EA and signals.
  • Funded stage: profit withdrawn after every winning trade at an 80% split.
  • A simulation of 2026 price data, not a live account. Challenges can fail.

FAQ

Straight answers

Is Tradedge Pulse a signal service or software?

Both. The same rule-based gold model is available as live signals (Telegram, push and email alerts), an MT5 signals indicator and a fully automated MT5 Expert Advisor. Copy trading is coming later. Choose how hands-on you want to be.

Are the performance figures real trading results?

They are hypothetical: a four-year backtest on broker data with spread and slippage included, confirmed in the MT5 Strategy Tester. They are not live account results. Live performance is usually weaker than a backtest, so plan for roughly half the edge.

What is the Free Add?

An optional setting that adds one extra position once a trade is already at breakeven, so it can't raise your risk at the moment of entry. In testing it lifted the four-year result from +91R to +141R without increasing the maximum drawdown.

Can I use it for a prop firm challenge?

Yes, if your firm allows EAs or you place the trades from the alerts yourself. Use 1% risk: the 2026 MT5 test at 1% had a 5.3% maximum equity drawdown, while 2% reached 10.9%, too close to a 10% limit. See the prop firm section of the FAQ.

How much capital do I need on a real account?

At 1% risk, about $7,500 sizes 90% of trades correctly with 0.01-lot steps, and about $20,000 sizes every trade. Smaller accounts can use a cent account or a prop firm account.

Will you publish the exact strategy rules?

No. The rules are proprietary. We publish how the model was tested and every simulated trade, so you can judge the results without the rules being given away.
