Traditional Passive Benchmarks

✗Only ~5–15% / Year

Many passive portfolios are designed to target relatively modest annual returns over long time horizons, especially in retirement-focused allocations built around steady compounding. While that approach can be effective for long-term wealth preservation and gradual growth, it often takes many years—or even decades—to see truly significant gains.

Next step

Turn it on this week — onboarding is quick and we’ll verify your routing

If you want the bot running hands‑free, start onboarding now. Setup takes ~10 minutes, and we’ll confirm your AutoTrader + PickMyTrade routing before you go live so you’re not guessing.

  • One trade max per day (clean + trackable)
  • Built for long‑term compounding, not daily thrills
  • Works with MNQ and NQ
  • Includes the full Elev8+ indicator suite (bonus)

How It Works

From chart to broker—without manual execution

The bot is not a “signal spammer.” It is an execution engine that evaluates context at a defined window and produces one decision: BUY, SELL, or NO TRADE.

1

Our TradingView indicator runs the logic

Our own TradingView handles execution server‑side at the decision window automatically, no account or subscription needed.

2

PickMyTrade routes the order

When the alert fires, PickMyTrade bridges AutoTrader alerts to your broker/prop firm connection to enter and exit the trade.

3

Optional copy trading

If you want “horizontal scaling” across multiple accounts, TradeSyncer can copy the same bot trade to multiple different prop firm accounts.

Beginner‑friendly (because it removes discretion)

You do not need to “read price action” to use the bot. After the initial setup, your only job is to keep sizing reasonable, maintain your automation connection, and let the system run over time.

We include a free 1‑on‑1 onboarding video session to verify your alert + routing before going live.

Exact routing depends on your selected connection path.

Why This Wins

The advantage is consistency—not prediction

Most traders lose because execution is inconsistent: hesitation, revenge trading, sizing mistakes, and emotional decisions. This system is designed to remove those failure modes by making your process repeatable.

Why people fail manually

  • ✕Overtrade to “make it back.”
  • ✕Move stops / take profits early.
  • ✕Change rules mid‑month.
  • ✕Size too big in drawdown.

What the bot fixes

  • One trade max/day limits self‑sabotage.
  • Rules‑based entries remove hesitation.
  • Defined risk behavior promotes survivability.
  • Server‑side execution runs even if your laptop is closed.

Hands‑Free

Once configured, you are not “managing trades.” You are maintaining the pipeline and letting the model execute without interference.

Discipline by Design

The goal is to eliminate impulsive decisions. You get an automated system designed to follow a fixed process and risk plan over time.

Process-Driven

Performance can vary across market conditions. The system is built around survivability, risk limits, and patience.

PickMyTrade bridge setup (fast onboarding)

Get the same historical backtest edge on the path that fits your account - with setup help included

Start with the connection path that matches your broker/prop firm, keep size small, and use the historical backtest results shown above as the benchmark for disciplined deployment. We help you complete setup and verify routing before you go live.

Requirements

What you need after purchase

To keep expectations clear: the bot depends on third‑party services billed separately from Elev8+ Trading, and it only connects through supported futures broker connections (Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, Rithmic, or ProjectX/TopstepX). If your broker isn’t listed, most brokerages can provide a Rithmic connection if requested.

Required (cannot be avoided)

  • •Brokerage / Prop Firm account (Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, Rithmic, or ProjectX/TopstepX futures accounts).
  • •PickMyTrade to bridge the AutoTrader executions to your broker/prop firm seamlessly.

You are responsible for setup, configuration, and ongoing connectivity. Automation can fail due to platform outages or configuration mistakes.

Optional

  • •Prop Firm accounts if your strategy is “horizontal scaling.”

Free onboarding included

We include a free onboarding video session to verify your AutoTrader setup, PickMyTrade routing, and (optional) TradeSyncer setup.

Preferred platform

NinjaTrader

NinjaTrader is our recommended platform for futures traders using the Elev8+ AutoTrader workflow.

Execution Paths

Two clean ways to run the bot (depending on your goal)

This system can be used as a long-term growth strategy in a personal brokerage account, or as a scaling framework across prop firm funded accounts to earn structured payouts. The difference is not the “edge”—it’s how you deploy it.

Option A: Live Brokerage (Compounding Focus)

Recommended for long‑term growth

If your priority is building personal capital over time, the cleanest path is a live broker account. It avoids monthly prop fees, payout constraints, and trailing drawdown behavior.

How to start

  • Start conservative (often MNQ for smaller balances).
  • Let the bot run through months—not days.
  • Scale only after equity growth is earned.

Scaling example

Earned scaling means you keep a buffer and increase exposure only after meaningful growth.

  • •Start: 1 MNQ / 1 NQ (based on drawdown capacity).
  • •Scale: add size only when equity supports it with buffer intact.

Not investment advice. Scaling increases risk. Always validate automation with small size before increasing exposure.

Option B: Prop Firms + Copy Trading (Income Scaling)

Built for horizontal scale

If your goal is to scale payouts across multiple funded accounts, the most stable approach is to keep size small per account and let scale do the work—rather than increasing leverage on one account.

Recommended approach

  • Pass evaluations manually first or allow the bot to pass for you.
  • Run automation on funded accounts with small size (often 1–2 MNQ).
  • Connect multiple accounts or other prop firms for “horizontal scaling.”

Payout discipline

The bot needs room to operate. If you withdraw too aggressively, you remove the buffer that protects you during drawdowns.

  • •Take payouts only when you stay above your safety buffer.
  • •Small size per account reduces trailing drawdown risk.

Prop firm rules can change, and trailing drawdown behavior varies by provider. You are responsible for compliance and risk.

Capital & survivability (the real secret)

The most common reason automation fails is not strategy quality—it’s oversizing. If you want compounding to work, you must have drawdown capacity.

These are general guidelines for survivability and will vary by volatility regime, fees, slippage, and broker/prop firm execution behavior. This page is educational only and not financial advice.

Positioning

A practical alternative to discretionary trading

Many passive investments and “managed” products aim for conservative annual returns over long horizons. This bot uses a different risk/return profile and may experience materially different performance and drawdowns than passive investments. Historical examples are for informational purposes only. The focus is survivability (position sizing) + time (patience).

Ready for hands‑free trading automation?

This system is built for disciplined execution and a structured automation workflow—not a “get rich overnight” promise. Elev8+ AutoTrader is designed for traders who want a more efficient, hands-off way to execute trades without being glued to the charts all day. It can be a strong fit for those seeking a more attractive alternative to traditional passive investments, while still requiring proper risk management, consistency, and realistic expectations.

Free access to the full Elev8+ indicator suite ($499 value)

Your AutoTrader membership includes lifetime access to the 4‑indicator suite for your manual trading. Use it to build structure, spot higher‑quality locations, and improve consistency outside of automation.

Frequently asked questions

RESULTS & EXPECTATIONS
How long does it take to pass an evaluation?
There’s no guaranteed timeframe — markets change. The goal is steady progress while protecting your downside. With reasonable risk and favorable conditions, some people finish in weeks. Other times it takes longer — the system is designed to keep you in the game, not force speed.
Can this pass a prop firm challenge in under a month?
It’s possible, but not guaranteed. Finishing under 30 days depends on volatility, your account rules, and your risk settings. The historical examples on this page show periods where equity progressed over weeks under defined settings — which supports that “under a month” can happen when conditions align.
What kind of ROI / returns can I expect?
Returns vary based on risk per trade, contract caps, account size, and market conditions. A better lens is: can the system stay consistent while compounding progress? That’s what evaluations and long-term growth reward. The historical results shown on this page are the clearest reference point for what the strategy has achieved under specific settings.
Is this a “get rich overnight” bot?
No. It’s built for repeatable execution and controlled frequency — the goal is to remove emotion and let a proven process work over time. The edge comes from consistency and compounding, not constant clicking or “guessing” the market.
AUTOMATION & HOW IT TRADES
How does your trading automation work?
The automation runs inside our own server and follows the strategy’s rules for entries, exits, and risk. Once enabled, it executes without discretionary clicking:
  • Signals: identifies the setup conditions it was designed for
  • Execution: places orders automatically when conditions are met
  • Risk: uses your configured risk/contract limits so sizing stays consistent
  • Window: trades only during New York session
Is this fully automated?
Yes. Once enabled, the system handles entries, exits, and risk rules automatically during the configured trading window.
Do I need to watch the screen while it trades?
No — it can run hands-free during your trading window. Many users still check in occasionally, but it’s not required.
Is this just an indicator?
No — this is a fully automated strategy, not a signal-only indicator.
Am I able to shut down my computer and it still work?
Yes, AutoTrader runs in the cloud so as long as your AutoTrader is enabled and PickMyTrade is linked to your broker it will run completely automated even if you turn off your computer.
PROP FIRMS & COMPATIBILITY
What platforms do you support?
The automation is designed to run inside on our own servers and execute via webhook alerts to your broker using PickMyTrade as the bridge.
Which brokers / prop firms does this work with?
It works with futures accounts that can connect to NinjaTrader, Tradovate, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, ProjectX/TopStepX, and any Rithmic futures account (including many prop firm connections).
Can I use this on evaluation and funded accounts?
Yes. Same bot — you just match the settings to the account rules and contract limits.
Do I have to trade only futures or can I trade forex?
This is built for futures workflows primarily for MNQ/NQ on prop firm evaluations and funded accounts.
GETTING STARTED (SETUP & INSTALL)
How difficult is the setup?
Setup is straightforward: Add the indicator on your MNQ/NQ Tradinview chart, apply the recommended settings, connect your account, and set the alert to send to your PickMyTrade webhook URL. Most users follow the setup checklist and are up and running quickly.
Do I need to know how to code?
No — no coding required.
How do I access the AutoTrader after purchase?
After purchase, create your account and you’ll see your AutoTrader section in your dashboard. From there you’ll have the setup guide and access steps.
PRICING, ACCESS & SUPPORT
What does my purchase include?
Your purchase includes access to the selected strategy, Discord access, setup support, and ongoing updates while you’re active.
Is this monthly or lifetime?
Bot access is active while your subscription is active. Discord access and support remain available while you’re an active customer.
How do the payment options work?
There are two options. Monthly Pay-As-You-Go ($199.99/month) gives you ongoing access as long as you keep paying — cancel anytime and access ends at the close of your paid period. The Lifetime plan ($1,999 one-time) grants permanent access immediately with no recurring charges. Both plans include the Elev8+ Indicator Suite at no extra cost — Pro tier with Monthly, Ultimate tier with Lifetime.
