Frequently Asked Questions

Which platform is best for GC trading?

NinjaTrader is recommended for GC due to its direct exchange connectivity, order flow tools, and superior backtesting engine. MetaTrader is also supported if you prefer it.

Can the bot trade GC 24 hours?

Yes. I build session-aware bots that adapt their parameters to different GC sessions. The bot can trade Globex/overnight sessions, European hours, and US hours with session-specific settings.

What is the minimum account size for GC bot trading?

This depends on your strategy and risk parameters. As a general guideline, I recommend at least $10,000-25,000 for futures trading to allow proper position sizing and drawdown absorption.

How much does a GC trading bot cost?

Typically $2,000-5,000 depending on complexity. A single-strategy bot is on the lower end, while a multi-strategy system with advanced risk management is on the higher end.

Do you provide ongoing optimization?

Yes. Markets evolve, and bot parameters may need adjustment over time. I offer ongoing optimization services to keep your GC bot performing well as market conditions change.
