Quanntick
Quanntick is a platform for building, testing and automating your own S&P 500 futures bot, operated by AI Systemics LLC. Members set up their bot on Quanntick's master signals in Bot Studio, test it in the Research Lab (backtest and optimizer), practice on paper, then run it automatically inside their own brokerage account (MES and ES contracts). Subscribers keep custody of their funds at their own broker at all times, Quanntick never holds customer money.

Quanntick is a signal provider and automated trading service. It is not a registered investment adviser, does not provide personalized financial advice, and does not manage client accounts.
What it trades
S&P 500 futures only: E-mini (ES) and Micro E-mini (MES) contracts on CME. Quanntick does not trade Nasdaq futures, equities, options, forex, or crypto.
Supported brokers
Automated trading (Performance & Pro plans) requires a TradeStation or tastytrade account, Quanntick connects via broker API and executes for the subscriber, while funds stay in the subscriber's own account. For any other broker, platform, or prop-firm account, Quanntick Wire sends the signals in real time (webhook delivery) and the subscriber executes anywhere; Quanntick Wire is a flat-fee signal feed (https://quanntick.ai/wire). More brokers coming. Signal-only plans and paper trading require no broker connection.
Custody and security
Funds never leave the subscriber's own brokerage account. Quanntick connects by API with read and trade permissions only: it cannot deposit or withdraw funds, ever. Subscribers can disable automated trading from their dashboard at any time.
How it works
- Signals. Quanntick's engine watches S&P 500 futures and sends an entry signal when its conditions line up. These are the master signals your bot can follow (two algorithms, below).
- Your bot (Bot Studio). The member chooses the size, stop, targets, hours and filters, and starts from the raw signals or from the Featured bot.
- Test (Research Lab). Backtest the bot on years of 1-minute market history with the backtest and the optimizer. Results are hypothetical.
- Practice (paper trading). Run the bot on paper with live market data and simulated money. Nothing goes to a broker.
- Trade. When ready, switch on live auto-trading through your own TradeStation or tastytrade account. The member controls the switch and can turn it off at any time.
Signal Builder: define supported entry conditions. Research available (Pro / Lab add-on). Paper and live deployment: planned; timing may change.

The two algorithms (the master signals a bot follows)
An account's bot follows one algorithm, chosen by the member.
Trend-following algorithm (TF)
- Swing-style trend strategy on S&P 500 futures
- 4-minute bars, trades around the clock during futures hours (24/5)
- Holds positions for hours to days, including overnight
- 0.75% trailing stop
- Trades around the clock on weekdays and can hold positions overnight.
- TF subscribers set their own targets, stops, and allocation. Quanntick provides the entry signal and manages the mechanics of the trade according to the subscriber's own settings.
Day-trading algorithm (DT)
- Intraday strategy on S&P 500 futures
- 1-minute bars, US cash session only (9:30 AM – 3:50 PM ET)
- Holds no positions overnight: flat before the session closes
- 0.50% stop
- Added in 2026. Flat by the close of the cash session.
- DT exits are centrally managed unless a Pro member sets their own (below).
Pro: your own stops and targets
Pro members can run their own bot with their own initial stop and target levels, set their own stop after the first target, and turn the trail on or off per target. Pro members can also use Signal Builder to define supported entry conditions (research only today, see How it works).
Performance
Quanntick does not publish performance figures. Its strategies are research-tested on historical market data before they trade. See /how-it-works.
