Guided strategy building: from investing idea to automated rule

How My Metric Trade guides you through building your first automated strategy, step by step.

A guided process, not a blank canvas

A blank interface is intimidating. My Metric Trade walks you through each decision in order: what to trade, when to enter, when to exit, how much to risk, and what safeguards to apply.

Every step explained

Each option in the builder includes a plain-language explanation. You always know why you are being asked a question and what effect your answer will have.

Review before anything runs

Before activation, you see a full plain-language summary of exactly what your strategy will do. Nothing executes until you approve it.
