From strategy signal to authorized execution.
IPM is a rules-based software platform designed to generate systematic futures trade signals, apply customer-directed risk controls, and route authorized orders to supported brokerage accounts.
One platform. Four rules-based algorithms.
The IPM suite applies related liquidity, momentum and participation models to two futures markets and two trading horizons. Signals are evaluated on confirmed standard-candlestick bars without future-looking data or negative plot offsets.
NQ Day Trading
Liquidity-ribbon crossovers are confirmed by a momentum and participation filter. The strategy can scale out, close, or reverse when its coded conditions occur.
Method and trade management
- Fast and slow liquidity ribbons use default lengths of 8 and 21.
- One contract exits on a close through the fast ribbon; the balance exits through the slow ribbon.
- A qualified opposite setup takes priority and reverses the remaining position.
- After a 1% favorable move, the stop advances to average entry and does not move backward.
ES Day Trading
The ES intraday model combines the proprietary liquidity-adjusted ribbon with momentum and participation confirmation, automated scaling, and reversal logic.
Method and trade management
- Fast and slow liquidity ribbons use default lengths of 8 and 21.
- One contract exits on a close through the fast ribbon; the balance exits through the slow ribbon.
- A qualified opposite setup takes priority and reverses the remaining position.
- After a 1% favorable move, the stop advances to average entry and does not move backward.
NQ Swing Trading
The NQ swing model uses ribbon crossovers for entries and full exits, with Heavy-oscillator warning transitions for partial position management.
Method and trade management
- A qualifying Heavy warning transition closes one contract before a full-exit signal.
- The runner exits on a confirmed close through the slow ribbon.
- The default protective stop is 250 NQ points from average entry, based on the original two contracts.
- Positions may remain open overnight, over weekends, and through economic or geopolitical events.
ES Swing Trading
The ES swing model uses liquidity-ribbon direction, momentum confirmation, and exhaustion conditions to manage a two-stage position.
Method and trade management
- A qualifying exhaustion condition closes one contract before a full-exit signal.
- The runner exits on a confirmed close through the slow ribbon.
- The default protective stop is 90 ES points from average entry, based on the original two contracts.
- Positions may remain open overnight, over weekends, and through economic or geopolitical events.
Risk settings describe intended strategy controls, not guaranteed maximum losses. Stops may fill at different prices during gaps, fast markets, exchange interruptions, or limited liquidity.
Designed for secure customer authorization.
IPM is being designed to integrate with supported broker APIs. Customers retain custody of funds at their broker and authorize IPM software to submit permitted orders under the controls they select.
Signal generation
The selected IPM algorithm identifies a rules-based entry, adjustment or exit.
Account validation
The platform verifies authorization, enabled strategy, contract limits and account state.
Broker routing
An order instruction is transmitted through the supported broker’s approved API.
Reconciliation
Order status, fills, positions and exceptions are monitored and recorded.
Controls before, during and after every order.
Automation does not eliminate trading risk. The platform is designed to constrain execution within customer-approved parameters and provide clear intervention controls.
Pre-trade controls
- Paper or live account separation
- Customer-selected strategies and symbols
- Maximum contracts per strategy and account
- Buying-power and margin validation
- Duplicate, stale and out-of-sequence signal rejection
- Current-position verification before submission
In-trade and operational controls
- Defined stop-loss and exit instructions
- Partial-exit and reversal reconciliation
- Daily loss limits and trading disablement
- Daily-close and overnight-position rules
- Customer and administrator flatten controls
- Order, fill, rejection and system-event logs
Authorization without custody.
IPM does not hold customer trading funds. The intended integration uses broker-controlled authorization, encrypted communications and revocable permissions. Customers continue to access their brokerage account independently.
Transparent from testing to activation.
Customers choose whether and how to activate the software. Paper testing and risk configuration precede any live authorization.
Subscribe and review
The customer receives product documentation, risk disclosures and access to the authorized strategy suite.
Connect a supported broker
The customer authenticates directly with the broker and grants revocable software access.
Configure controls
The customer selects algorithms, instruments, position limits, overnight permissions and loss thresholds.
Validate in paper
Signals and executions are tested in a simulated brokerage environment before live activation.
Activate and monitor
The customer elects live activation and retains access to broker positions, platform logs and disable controls.
Risk and regulatory disclosures
Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. Past, hypothetical, simulated or backtested performance does not guarantee future results. Actual results may differ because of liquidity, slippage, commissions, fees, connectivity, market conditions and other factors.
- IPM software does not guarantee profit or prevent loss.
- Customers remain responsible for account funding, broker permissions, margin compliance and activation choices.
- Automated systems may experience connectivity failures, delayed or duplicate messages, rejected orders and other technical events.
- Product availability and live brokerage integration are subject to broker approval, applicable law and final compliance review.
Sentiment Timing Publications provides software technology and does not hold customer brokerage funds. Live integration with Interactive Brokers and AMP Futures remains subject to each broker’s approval, applicable technology-provider requirements, applicable law, and completion of any required regulatory registrations, exemptions, notices, or compliance review.
