Automated Trading
Automated System Trading Execution

To be the best futures trader, you have to understand market trends - both past and present, know all the factors that affect the markets, and follow price shifts, minute by minute. Although some people choose to learn the complex ins and outs of trading and make their own decisions, this is something that you may not have the time for.

With Optimus Automated System Trading Accounts, you can let a fully automated trading system, developed by a futures trader, guide your every move.

What exactly is an automated trading system?

A trading system is a computer program that follows a given market algorithm for you, every minute of the day. This program is designed to look for trends, analyze data, and then apply specific mathematical formulas. Then it generates signals - or buy and sell orders - that if followed exactly, generally offer overall strong results.

How are trading signals received and executed?

Buy and sell orders for the automated futures trading systems are executed via our automated computer software to have low latency in execution. 

We have dedicated our own state of the art server via a T1 connection to execute system trades in real time as the signal gets generated.  As well,  We monitor our systems trading servers 24/5 to make sure that each automated methodology is followed correctly.

What are the benefits of systems trading?
  • SAVE TIME - When your trades are automatically executed by Vision, you don't have to spend any more time studying charts, formulating trading strategies, and placing orders. You can still get the benefits of diversifying your portfolio, and spend your time attending to the other priorities in your life.

  • ELIMINATE STRESS - When you are making your own trading decisions, it is easy to be swayed by fear and greed. With an automated trading system guiding each move you make, you will be taking a disciplined, unemotional and studied approach to trading.

  • PERFORMANCE - Trading systems can help you meet your investment objectives, since all of your decisions are based on formulas developed by an experienced trader.

  • SAVE MONEY - When following a trading system, you don't have to subscribe to a costly market quote or data feed, or have a robust computer to handle trading software. In addition, our fees are very reasonable, and can be deducted from your account. You should be aware that there is a risk of loss in futures trading.

  • REPORTING RESULTS - Each system performance is available upon request. However, you MUST read the hypothetical disclaimer that is presented with each system. If you are missing a hypothetical cover page you please let us know ASAP. The hypothetical disclaimer should contain all the risk associated with trading automation, plus the material assumption taken while constructing the report. This would include Slippage/commissions but does not include the cost of the system that could have an impact on the performance of the system Upon looking at the result, you may want to consider is such programs are suitable for your risk capital and risk tolerance.

    There is a substantial risk of loss in futures trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

This is an experience of a certain client. Your experience may vary.

The service I receive from your staff at Optimus Futures is exceptional. Being new to trading futures, I needed extra guidence and attention. Even though I have a small account, Chad has been very helpfull and always willing to explain any detail. I have great confidence in your staff. Everyone at Optimuns treats me with the same courtesy and attention that would be expected by any big investor.

I really do appreciate what you, Chad, and Jennifer do for me as my broker.

The thing I like most about Optimus Trading is the way that Matt and Chad interact with me as a trader. Their assumption is always that I know what I'm doing. When they present an alternative suggestion they do so in a way that gives me additional information so that I can evaluate my decision more fully. Matt's office manager, Jennifer, is a great part of the team too. She is always pleasant and has helped me a number of time with paperwork on new accounts and transfering funds to and from my accounts.

When I come to them with questions they give me the benefit of their experience quickly and confidently. Their confidence in both themselves and me makes the good trades better and the bad trades more easily accepted.

I would recommend Optimus Trading to anyone who was considering a relationship with a new broker.

Hello Matt

We have worked together about 3 years and I want to thank you, Chad and Jennifer for all you have helped me with over that time. It’s a pleasure to work with people you can call friends. It’s great to know when you call you can talk with someone that knows your name and makes you fill like they actually want to help you. Chad is great with managing automated systems and Jennifer with keeping my accounts straight. You have a great team and I’m looking forward with working with your firm for years to come.

Again thanks for everything

I have been with Optimus Trading for a few years now, and have been consistently impressed with their level of service. I’ve had other brokers who didn’t know my name, who didn’t care if I lost every cent in my account, and who treated me as an inconvenience. The folks at Optimus have always been courteous, have at times steered me away from making unwise trades, and have, in general, been a pleasure to work with. In addition, the Optimus website has a lot of valuable information and the periodic blog updates are very helpful. I recommend Optimus as a partner for anyone’s commodities trading business.
