Rethink “Buy & Hold”

Traditional investing (S&P 500, real estate) builds wealth but faces sharp downturns and stagnant periods. Is your capital fully optimized?

Common Frustrations:

Market Shocks & Slow Recovery: Downturns erase progress; recovery is slow. S&P 500 peaked-to-trough losses up to –55.3 % (2007–2020)
Capital Stagnation: "Time in the market" is key, but not when it's flat.
Passive Strategy Limits: No adaptation to changing conditions or short-term opportunities; no active defense.

Seeking dynamic growth with active risk management? Meet Vector.

Introducing Vector: Disciplined, Intelligent Futures Trading

Vector is a futures trading algorithm, seeking consistent growth and protecting capital 24/7. It's hands-off for you, fully active for your portfolio. Vector uses algorithms (pre-defined rules on price, volume, etc.) for automated, emotionless trade execution at machine speed.

It's estimated that 80% of instituional trading is accounted for by algorithms. With recent advancements in technolgoy Vector is now brining this technology to retail.

Vector is a trading system for Futures, designed for investors wanting a "smarter S&P 500" experience: consistent growth, strong capital preservation.

How Vector Unlocks Alpha

Understanding how Vector unlocks alpha requires a look at its core components:

1. Trading vs. Investing

The core difference between Vector and passive index investing (like the S&P 500) lies in their fundamental approach: Vector actively trades the markets, while index investing is about passively holding assets over time.

Think of it this way:

Investing (Passive Holding): You buy and hold, aiming for assets to appreciate over the long term. Your capital essentially waits for the market to generate value.
Trading (Active Strategy - Vector): We aim to systematically extract value from market movements, both up and down. Your capital becomes an active engine, not just a passenger.

This active trading approach offers distinct advantages:

Capital as an Engine: Actively works rather than passively waits.
Potential for Faster Compounding: More frequent opportunities to realize and reinvest gains.
Adaptability: Can aim to profit in rising or falling markets (long or short) and actively manage risk during downturns.

2. Humans Suck at Trading, Algorithms Don't

Effective active trading demands a level of consistency that human emotion and market complexity can easily undermine. Vector overcomes these manual trading challenges with sophisticated algorithms:

Systematic & Emotionless Execution: Trades follow precise, price-action logic, removing emotional errors and ensuring discipline nearly impossible for manual traders.
Focused Daily Discipline: Concentrating on one high-probability setup daily avoids overtrading and reactive decisions to market noise.
Adaptive Machine Learning: Vector isn't static. Our in-house team uses machine learning to continually analyze, refine, and expand our strategies (now over 30 strong), ensuring ongoing adaptation to evolving markets.

3. Why the Futures Market?

Vector leverages Futures markets specifically for these powerful benefits:

Broader Opportunities Beyond Stocks: Trade global indices (S&P 500, Nasdaq), commodities (oil, gold), currencies, and more. This gives you more potential profit avenues and can enhance your portfolio's balance.
Enhanced Security in Transparent Markets: Futures trade on major regulated exchanges (e.g., CME Group, with CFTC oversight). This means greater security, fair pricing, and robust investor protection for you.
Easy, Secure Access with Top US Brokers: Vector seamlessly integrates with leading regulated US brokers (Interactive Brokers, Schwab, NinjaTrader), offering you simple setup and secure fund management.

Our risk-averse commitment: Vector always trades 1:1 in Futures accounts, applying no additional leverage itself. For you, this means more controlled and predictable risk, directly tied to our core strategy.

4. Uncompromising Risk Management: The Vector Difference

Vector's advanced risk protocols are its cornerstone, designed to protect your capital and set us apart, especially from systems in less regulated spaces:

Double Stop-Loss for Enhanced Protection: Our unique two-tiered system actively limits potential losses on every trade, helping to shield your capital from unexpected market volatility or slippage.
Strict Drawdown Control to Preserve Your Capital: Engineered with a primary focus on keeping your investment safer by diligently managing overall portfolio risk and drawdown limits.
NO High-Risk Gambling Tactics (Martingale/Grid-Free): Vector fundamentally avoids dangerous Martingale or Grid systems. Unlike approaches that dangerously escalate risk by doubling down on losses (often leading to account blowouts and disqualification from prop firm funding), Vector's design protects your capital from such catastrophic failures and supports sustainable trading.

This disciplined, multi-faceted risk management is how Vector strives for consistent growth opportunities for you, while actively working to safeguard your investment.

Can Vector be Trusted?

Vector is engineered for discerning investors and traders prioritizing transparency, proven risk management, and robust performance. Our strategies are designed to meet and surpass the demanding standards of proprietary trading firms, focusing on tight drawdown control. This makes Vector ideal if you're seeking prop firm funding ($100k-$1M+), and we can even guide you through their evaluation processes.

Your Capital, Your Control: Your funds always remain in your account at your chosen regulated US broker (e.g., Interactive Brokers, Schwab). Vector is a tool you connect; we never access your capital, ensuring full liquidity for you.
Thriving User Community: Join our private Discord with 500+ daily active Vector users sharing real-time insights and experiences.
Performance Insights: While Futures lack a universal third-party verifier, we offer transparency through brokerage statements (e.g., NinjaTrader data), trading journals, and (with consent) connections to established clients who can share their firsthand success.
We Invest Our Own Capital: Our firm has significant capital deployed in the same Vector strategies we offer—we stand by what we build.
Expert In-House Development: Vector is 100% developed and continuously refined by our dedicated in-house team (30+ active strategies). This means genuine expertise, ongoing adaptation to market changes, and direct support—no white-labeling.

Your confidence is paramount. We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee (conditions apply), reflecting our commitment to your success with Vector.

Is Vector Right for You?

If you are a sophisticated investor, trader, or someone with a minimum of $20,000 in liquid capital allocated for growth (or are exploring prop firm capital), and you're seeking:

A way to potentially enhance returns and achieve a "smarter S&P 500" experience beyond traditional passive investments.
Active risk management and downside protection to better navigate market volatility.
Access to a disciplined, algorithmic trading system without needing to become a full-time trader.
A solution that operates through established, regulated US Futures brokers for security and transparency.

Then Vector may be the intelligent, dynamic component your portfolio needs.

It's not about abandoning sound long-term principles; it's about augmenting them with an intelligent engine designed for the opportunities in today's Futures markets, built on strong risk aversion.

Trading Futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Leverage can work both for and against you. Please consider your financial situation and risk tolerance before trading. Vector is a software tool and does not provide investment advice. Prop firm evaluations have their own specific rules and success is not guaranteed by Vector alone.

Feature	Vector Algorithmics (Futures)	Most Other Trading Algorithms (Forex)
Broker & Regulation	Utilizes regulated Futures brokers (FCMs) under strict oversight (e.g., CFTC, NFA, IIROC/CIRO), ensuring client protection.	Frequently requires offshore or less-regulated brokers to enable high leverage or risky strategies, offering less protection.
Core Strategy	Employs rules-based, often price-action driven logic (e.g., daily trend breakouts) designed for consistency.	Often relies on Martingale (loss-chasing) or Grid (range-bound) systems, which are statistically flawed long-term.
Risk Management	Prioritizes risk mitigation: Uses stop-losses per trade, defined R:R, or dynamic profit protection. NOT Martingale/Grid.	Inherently high-risk: Martingale escalates risk exponentially; Grids risk large drawdowns in trends. Lacks robust overall stops.
Market & Exchange	Trades on regulated Futures exchanges (e.g., CME Group) offering diverse assets and transparent data.	Often trades Over-The-Counter (OTC) Spot Forex with less transparency on pricing and volume.
Performance & Sustainability	Aims for sustainable, realistic performance over the long term through a consistent edge and risk control.	Often promises unrealistic, high monthly returns that are typically unsustainable without extreme risk, leading to eventual failure.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from forex or crypto algos?

Vector stands apart by trading exclusively on regulated Futures exchanges with a disciplined, rules-based strategy—avoiding high-risk tactics like Martingale or Grid systems common in some Forex/Crypto algos. This focus on regulated markets and sound strategy provides greater transparency, risk management, and a commitment to sustainable performance often missing in less regulated or overly aggressive Forex/Crypto algorithm offerings.

How does Vector handle sudden market shocks, extreme volatility, or 'black swan' events?

No strategy is immune to extreme, unforeseen market events. However, Vector is built with multiple layers of protection. The strategy's logic (e.g., trading once per day) limits exposure compared to high-frequency systems. Crucially, the built-in double stop-loss mechanism is designed specifically to help mitigate significant losses during sharp adverse moves or slippage in volatile conditions. While black swan events can impact all market participants, Vector's predefined risk controls aim to protect capital even when the unexpected occurs, adhering to its risk-mitigated design philosophy.

Do you trade your own capital using the same algorithm?

Yes. We originally developed all of our strategies to manage our own capital.

If this works, why sell it?

A very reasonable question. Offering it to others not only makes good business sense but also provides us with a broader dataset. This helps us continuously refine and improve the algorithm's performance and yes, it creates an additional revenue stream for our firm. We see it as a win-win where our success can align with our clients'.

Many trading algorithms fail. Why should I trust Vector?

Vector's credibility stems from its foundation in:
‍
Sound Trading Principles: Utilizing established price action concepts, not risky betting schemes like Martingale/Grid.
‍
Regulated Environment: Designed for use in transparent, regulated Futures markets with compliant brokers.
‍
Explicit Risk Management: Prioritizing capital protection through built-in stops and defined risk parameters.
‍
Realistic Goals: Focusing on achievable, sustainable performance rather than unrealistic hype.

What are the realistic capital requirements to use Vector effectively?

This is for individuals with at least $20K in liquid capital to get started—we recommend this as the minimum.

How liquid is this? Can I take cash out as needed?

Your capital stays in your own brokerage account—fully under your control. We don’t manage your money, lock it up, or have access to it. You can deposit or withdraw at any time. Our algorithm is simply a self-directed trading tool that connects to trusted, U.S.-regulated FDIC and SPIC insured brokerages of your choice.

Who built the algo?

Our algorithm is built entirely by our in-house development team. We don’t buy or white-label third-party systems—everything is developed internally and continuously refined by our own machine learning engineers.
