Trade Assist & Execution Software
gap-n-go in highly volatile markets
Cowboy Trade™ is designed to help traders capitalize on high-volatility markets, particularly powerful "gap-and-go" moves. The software automatically places buy and sell stop orders above and below the opening range, allowing you to quickly participate when the market reveals its direction - almost impossible to do without trade automation.
Built with risk management at its core, Cowboy Trader automatically disqualifies trades that exceed your predefined risk threshold. Once triggered, it immediately places a protective stop and multiple profit targets, helping you execute opening-range breakout trades with speed, discipline, and confidence.
capture Opening range breakouts
ORB Trade Automation is designed to help traders capture gap-fill opportunities during the opening bar, when volatility is high and manual entries can be difficult. Once enabled, the trader selects the setup time, direction, exit strategy, and trade quantity, and the software places a pending entry order after the opening bar closes.
Built-in risk controls automatically disqualify trades that exceed the maximum risk threshold. Once triggered, ORB Trade Automation places a protective stop, two profit targets, moves the stop to breakeven at a defined level, and trails the stop when conditions qualify—helping traders execute fast-moving gap-fill setups with structure, speed, and discipline.
trend trading masterpiece
With overnight volatility creating larger opening gaps, gap-fill trades have become some of the highest-probability setups in today's market.
But Da Vinci isn't just a gap-fill tool.
It also identifies Step Three entries, trend continuation trades, and other high-probability trending opportunities that develop throughout the session.
If you're already trading Reversals and Inverses, Da Vinci is the perfect complement—helping you capture both the opening move and the trend that follows.
strategy execution
Trading is fast and complicated, but it doesn’t have to be.
Add ease and precision to your trading with an execution strategy the follows Pat’s Modified Market Profile method, available both manually and in an automated format.
The software works on NinjaTrader8 and TickBlaze platforms.
Trading, simplified.
reversion to the mean trade
Reversion-to-the-mean trading is one of the most widely accepted high-probability concepts in trading. The challenge isn't finding the setup—it's executing it with the mathematical precision, speed, and risk management required to make it work consistently.
That's exactly why we built BBOT™.
Based on the renowned Blow Off Trade taught by Todd "Bubba" Horwitz in the Market Mavericks program, BBOT uses measurable statistical extremes (standard deviations) to identify when markets have moved too far, too fast—and may be poised to revert back toward the mean.
The software automatically identifies entries, manages risk, and scales out of positions as the trade develops. Best of all, it's highly customizable, allowing traders to adjust standard deviation levels, timeframes, different markets, and profit-taking structures to match their style and objectives.
Precision. Discipline. Automation.
That's the power of BBOT.

HIgh perfomance futures trading
The goal of Futures Portfolio Management is simple: deliver the kind of disciplined, systematic results professional traders strive for—without requiring millions of dollars or locking up your capital.
The strategy focuses on 3-4 high-probability trend and reversion-to-the-mean opportunities, using longer-term charts to identify powerful market moves with favorable risk-to-reward profiles. Rather than chasing every trade, the program is designed to focus on quality setups that have historically produced strong results.
The program maintains a relatively low barrier to entry compared to traditional managed accounts or hedge funds.
If you're looking for a professionally managed, systematic approach to futures trading that seeks strong risk-adjusted returns, Futures Portfolio Management may be exactly what you've been looking for.
