QQQ PROXY · UPDATING INDICATORS
NOT NQ / NOT VESTSeparate QQQ ETF research feed. EMA 9/21, RSI 14 and MACD 12/26/9 use QQQ's own completed 5-minute candles, not the NQ futures backtest. Data rights and provider freshness must be verified; no live entry signals.
No QQQ data requested. Requires a separately authorized Twelve Data API key on Cloudflare.
Updates at most once per 60 seconds while this tab is open; only completed provider bars are used. US ETF regular trading hours differ from NQ futures. Data may be delayed or stale.
NASDAQ-100 PROXY · QQQ ETF
NOT NQ / NOT VESTProvider-hosted TradingView QQQ chart. It may be real-time or delayed depending on exchange permissions and market hours; check the timestamp/delay shown inside the chart. QQQ trades on the stock market, not the nearly 24-hour NQ futures session. Never use QQQ price levels as NQ or Vest entry prices.
If the embedded chart is blocked on your device, open the provider's QQQ chart.
Choose 500–10,000 bars. Availability depends on contract history and your Massive plan. No contract rollover is stitched automatically.
Data connection
Choose a dated contract, not just NQ/ES/GC. Defaults use December 2026 reference contracts; confirm active contracts and rollover dates in Massive's contract directory. An API key must be configured server-side as MASSIVE_API_KEY. No API keys are entered in this page.
Indicator readings
Indicators use the loaded dataset. VWAP resets at UTC midnight and may differ from exchange-session VWAP. Missing candles and short history can affect readings.
Research signal
BUY · SELL · WAITReference setup
No setup until valid candles are loaded. These are reference-futures levels only, not Vest order instructions.
Funded-account risk controls
Illustrative dollar calculations only. Confirm static vs trailing drawdown, equity rules, fees, and contract size with Vest before trading.
Research alignment
Indicators and levels use historical reference-futures candles, not Vest prices. The signal is descriptive and does not predict returns.
Strategy filters · v4.4
Research-only confirmation: EMA 9/21 trend, EMA 50 and EMA 200 regime, RSI and MACD, an EMA 9 pullback/reclaim, and volatility gates. Signal requires a newly completed bar and never predicts the next move.
v4.4 adds EMA 200 regime confirmation, EMA 50 slope, and ATR percentage limits. More filters do not guarantee better predictions.
Historical backtest
Illustrative filtered one-position-at-a-time strategy: signals calculated on completed bars; entries at the next bar open; 1.5×ATR stop and 2R target. If both stop and target occur within one candle, the stop is assumed first. Fees/slippage are simplified, and no financing, funding or Vest execution model is included.
Both strategies use the same candles, costs, stops, holdout boundaries, and next-bar fills. Results are research diagnostics, not independent validation.

Remove one filter group at a time to see what it changes. These are descriptive, in-sample comparisons, not proof of improved predictions. All rows share identical 205-bar warmup, execution, costs and chronological boundaries.

The main backtest and comparison will use the same simulation.
Cost thresholds are descriptive break-even estimates from the same historical trades. They do not predict future profitability or represent actual Vest spreads/funding. A caution status does not authorize an entry.
Run a backtest to assess costs and data gaps. Historical research only.
Compare entries that are present in the baseline but excluded by the filtered strategy. Because trades can overlap, the counterfactual difference is descriptive, not a sum of forgone profits. Cost stress applies extra points per completed round trip, not live execution pricing.

Windows are contiguous, chronological, and evaluated using identical settings. Positions are closed at window boundaries to prevent cross-window attribution. These windows are diagnostic, not independently optimized out-of-sample tests. The final holdout is the latest portion of the loaded data.

How TRADEAI works
This version is a transparent, rule-based research engine, not a trained AI model. BUY/SELL additionally requires EMA 50 trend, pullback confirmation, and volatility filtering. Otherwise WAIT. It never sends orders. For a free account, historical data is unsuitable for live scalping.
Upcomers · Horizon $25K
MANUAL · NO APIIndependent NQ/MNQ risk planning. Values are manually entered and are not synchronized with Upcomers. No orders are placed. Funded rules are based on support screenshots; verify the latest written rules before trading.
Enter your values to calculate risk.
Funded: $1,000 initial EOD drawdown (4% trailing), $500 daily limit (2%), $375 max loss/trade (1.5%). Evaluation: $750 daily limit shown in your offer; $375 max-trade limit is not confirmed for evaluation. The reported floor locks at $25,000 once a closing balance reaches ~$26,041.67. These calculations assume the 4% trailing floor is 96% of the highest completed-day closing balance, capped at $25,000. Live-equity breaches, fees and intra-day risk can still cause violations. Payouts shrink the remaining buffer; the calculator conservatively deducts gross payout from equity.
