How it works

Live in three steps

SentryQ is a desktop app. It connects to your broker with your permission and does the trading — you keep full oversight and can stop it instantly.

1

Connect cTrader

Sign in to your cTrader account through cTrader's own secure authorisation — the same way you'd "log in with Google". SentryQ never sees your password, and you pick exactly which account it may trade.

2

Choose your strategies

Turn strategies on or off, read what each one does, and tune sizing, stops and targets — or keep the validated defaults. Start on a demo account; go live when you're ready.

3

It trades, you stay in control

The engine scans, places and manages orders under a built-in risk stack. Watch everything on a live dashboard, get a monthly report card, and hit the kill-switch any time.

Local or remote — your choice

Run SentryQ on your own PC next to cTrader, or install it on a VPS so it trades around the clock without your machine being on. Because it connects through cTrader's cloud API, the same app works either way — no separate setup.

The strategy library

Five strategies. You decide which trade.

Every strategy ships with a plain-English brief and validated defaults. Three run out of the box; two are opt-in for traders who want them.

Mean-Reversion CORE

The flagship

Fades price when it stretches too far from its short-term average, banking small profits quickly with a wide safety stop. High win rate; the best risk-adjusted strategy in the suite.

Trend 101/200 CORE

The trend rider

Joins genuine trends on a pullback and lets a runner ride toward a distant target. Built from a multi-year track record; earns where mean-reversion struggles.

Regime Breakout CORE

The diversifier

Trades range breakouts aligned with the larger trend and trails the stop behind price. Near-zero correlation to the others — its job is to earn in conditions that starve them.

Swing Rider OPT-IN

The patient one

The same trend entries, held for the whole multi-day move with no early profit-taking. Fewer, larger trades — for traders who prefer swing holds over scalping.

Aggressive Survivable OPT-IN

High-octane · high risk

The core engines sized up for aggressive compounding, from a survival study. Bigger returns, much bigger drawdowns — clearly labelled, guarded, and demo-first.

Your control

Every setting, editable

Change lot sizing, risk %, stops, take-profits and more — click Apply and it takes effect live. Or reset any strategy to its validated defaults in one click.

Risk & control

Four layers between you and a bad day

Most trading tools sell you the upside. We built the seatbelts first — because the drawdown is what actually ends accounts.

📰

News Guard

Automatically suspends new entries around high-impact economic events, using a live economic calendar.

📉

Daily Loss Limit

Halts trading for the day if losses cross a threshold you set — a bad morning doesn't become a bad week.

🛡️

Equity Guardian

Tracks your peak equity and automatically halts and flattens everything if drawdown exceeds your limit.

■

Kill-switch

One click cancels every order, closes every position and pauses trading. You are never more than a click from flat.

⚖️

Risk-based sizing

Each trade is sized to risk a fixed small percentage of your balance — automatically, in your account currency.

📊

Expected-vs-actual

Live monitoring flags when a strategy drifts outside its validated performance envelope, so you know early.

Our approach

Built on evidence, not promises

Every strategy earns its place through years of out-of-sample backtesting — and we're just as public about what doesn't work.

Validated, then re-validated

Strategies are tuned on one period and confirmed on a separate, unseen period. If an edge doesn't survive out-of-sample, it doesn't ship.

Drawdown, stated plainly

We tell you the losing streaks and worst drawdowns to expect — before your first one — because managing expectations is what keeps traders in the game.

We say when it fails

We researched a Fibonacci strategy across 144 configurations. None were profitable out-of-sample, so we didn't ship one. That's the standard.

No performance promises

Backtests are not future results, and trading FX carries real risk of loss. We show you the evidence and the risks — the decision, and the account, stay yours.

Risk warning. Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk and can result in the loss of some or all of your capital. Past performance and backtested results are not indicative of future results. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does SentryQ hold my money?

No. Your funds stay in your own cTrader account with your broker at all times. SentryQ connects with your permission and places trades — it never holds, moves, or withdraws money, and never sees your broker password.

What do I need to run it?

A Windows PC (or a Windows VPS for 24/7 running), a cTrader account with a supported broker, and a SentryQ subscription. The trial and first release run on cTrader demo accounts.

Can I run it without leaving my PC on?

Yes — install SentryQ on a VPS and it trades continuously. Because it connects through cTrader's cloud API, the same app works whether it's on your desktop or a remote server.

Will it make me money?

We can't and won't promise that. Trading FX carries real risk of loss, and no strategy wins every time. What we offer is strategies validated over years of out-of-sample data, honest drawdown expectations, and a risk stack designed to protect capital. The outcomes, and the risk, are yours.

How do I stop it?

Instantly. The kill-switch cancels all orders, closes all positions and pauses trading in one click. You can also disable any individual strategy, and cancel your subscription any time.

Can I change the strategy settings?

On the Pro and Elite plans, yes — lot sizing, risk %, stops, take-profit levels and more, applied live. Or keep the validated defaults and reset to them any time. The core signal logic is locked to protect the tested edge.
