Picking yearly on or before October 31? Shifu's launch price is already applied at checkout and it beats the code, so there's no code box.

Paradox Algo is an official Shifu partner and may benefit when you subscribe. Shifu is a separate company; its service, pricing, terms and support are its own.

Shifu is built into Paradox Algo, Kairos Scalper, Aurum, SignalWave and NovaPick it in the algo's Webhook Provider dropdown. On Paradox Algo v7.5 it is the default; on Kairos Scalper v1.6, Aurum v1.2 and Nova AI Trader v2.5, PickMyTrade stays the default. On Aurum, type the exact gold contract, like MGCZ6: a continuous symbol like MGC1! stops the strategy with a message. On SignalWave v4.2's optional Webhook Automation, Shifu is the default. On Nova AI Trader, index futures can use the continuous symbol; other futures need the dated contract. Quantum Edge gets Shifu with its next update.
τ

One Alert, Every Account

You choose the accounts inside Shifu. One alert from your algo places the order in each of them.

β

Your Trail Stays At The Broker

One alert carries the entry, target, stop and trailing stop. On NinjaTrader and Tradovate accounts they rest at the broker, and the trail starts at the same trigger your chart uses.

Σ

One Flat Price

No per-account fees and no limit on accounts. A Paper account is built in, with no broker login.

Which Brokers Work Today

Shifu's own status for each route. Live means real orders route over it today.

RouteStatusWhat it means
NinjaTrader and TradovateLiveReal orders route today. NinjaTrader and Tradovate are one firm with one login.
RithmicLiveReal orders route today.
ProjectXComingNot switched on yet. TopstepX and Bulenox use ProjectX only, so they wait for it.
PaperLiveBuilt in, with no broker login and no card. Exits settle at your next alert, so use it to check your setup, not your results.

On a Rithmic account? Use PickMyTrade with our algos. Shifu's Rithmic route places the entry, target and stop, but it can't hold a separate trail distance and doesn't flatten before a new entry, so our trailing exits won't match the chart there.

Setup In Five Steps

For Paradox Algo v7.5 and Kairos Scalper v1.6. Steps 1 and 2 happen at Shifu, then three steps in TradingView and at your broker.

  1. Subscribe at Shifu. Choose monthly or yearly billing at shifu.trade. New to Shifu? At checkout, tap Add promotion code and enter PARADOXALGO. On Pro Annual? For monthly billing, use your personal code instead.
  2. Connect your accounts and create a bot. Connect your broker in Shifu, or start on its built-in Paper account. Create a bot, choose the accounts it trades, and keep it in Market mode, the default. For your algo's contract count to set the size, leave How to size each trade on From the TradingView alert, also the default. The bot's webhook link is on its Setup tab.
  3. Set your algo to Shifu. In the algo's 🔗 Webhook settings, set Webhook Provider to Shifu (already the default on Paradox Algo v7.5). Leave Auth Token and Account ID empty: the bot's link is your identity, and every account routed to that bot trades from the same alert. For index futures, set Broker Symbol to the continuous symbol, for example MNQ1!, and in contract-roll week type the dated contract your chart is on. On any other market (gold, crude, silver, rates, currencies), always use the dated contract. Keep PMT — Trail Enable at 1, or no trailing stop is sent.
  4. Create one TradingView alert. Condition: your algo + alert() function calls only (older guides call it “Any alert() function call”). Leave the Message box empty. In Notifications, turn on Webhook URL and paste the link from the bot's Setup tab. Never pick “Order fills and alert() function calls”: it sends every order twice.
  5. Run one sim trade. Use a sim or demo account at your broker, then open its order history. The stop should start trailing only after the trigger. If the broker refuses the trigger-based trail, Shifu falls back to a stop that trails from entry at the full stop distance.

Know These Limits

  • Rithmic account: use PickMyTrade with our algos, so trailing exits match the chart.
  • One algo per contract per account. Shifu flattens that contract before each new entry, so two algos on the same contract in one account close each other's trades. Different contracts or different accounts are fine.
  • Paradox Algo: one Shifu bot per chart for now. Two alerts that leave at the same instant for the same side can be read as one alert sent twice, and the second is dropped without an error. Kairos Scalper can feed two charts into one bot.
Aurum uses a different alertAurum's alert uses Order fills and alert() function calls with its pre-filled Message, whatever the platform, Shifu included. On gold, type the exact contract in Broker Symbol, like MGCZ6: MGC1! stops Aurum with a message. Aurum setup →
Alerts are a frozen copy of your settingsAfter any settings change or algo update, delete the alert and create it again. Updated Paradox Algo to v7.5? First confirm the Webhook Provider still shows your platform: v7.5 changed that default to Shifu. Field-by-field help lives in the Webhook Automation guide.

Shifu Questions

Do I need Shifu to use Paradox Algo?

No. Automation is optional, and you can take the trades by hand. Our algos also support PickMyTrade, TradersPost, CrossTrade and a custom template. Paradox Algo v7.5 opens on Shifu as its default, so if you use another platform, pick it in the Webhook Provider dropdown.

How do I get 25% off?

If you're a first-time Shifu customer, enter PARADOXALGO at Shifu's checkout when you start your subscription: tap Add promotion code. It works on monthly and yearly billing for as long as you stay subscribed. Picking yearly on or before October 31? Shifu's launch price is already applied and beats the code, so there's no code box.

Is PARADOXALGO the same code as PickMyTrade's?

Same code, two partners. At Shifu it takes 25% off. At PickMyTrade it takes 10% off. Each company applies its own discount.

PickMyTrade or Shifu: which should I use?

Pick by account. Tradovate or NinjaTrader account (most prop firms): either one. Both place the entry, target, stop and trailing stop at the broker. Rithmic account: PickMyTrade with your Rithmic connection name, because Shifu's Rithmic route can't hold our algos' separate trail distance. Both trade several accounts from one alert, and Shifu charges one flat price with no per-account fees. Both work in Paradox Algo and Kairos Scalper today.

Which of your products work with Shifu?

Paradox Algo v7.5 (live since September 19, where Shifu is the default) and Kairos Scalper v1.6 (live since September 21, where PickMyTrade stays the default). Aurum v1.2 has had it since September 22 (type the exact gold contract, like MGCZ6). SignalWave v4.2 has it since September 23, where Shifu is the default for its optional webhook automation, and Nova AI Trader v2.5 since September 28. Quantum Edge gets Shifu with its next update, and its release note will say when it's in. Our other indicators keep their current platforms for now.

I updated Paradox Algo. Why does it show Shifu?

Paradox Algo v7.5 changed the default Webhook Provider to Shifu, so a dropdown you never touched moved with it. On PickMyTrade or CrossTrade? Select it again, then delete your alert and create a new one. Saved settings carry over, and nothing needs re-tuning.

Is Shifu part of Paradox Algo?

No. Shifu is a separate company and our official automation partner. Its service, pricing and support are its own. We may benefit when you subscribe.

Who do I ask for help?

For the code, our settings or your alerts, ask in our Discord or email support@paradoxalgo.com. For your Shifu account, billing or broker connection, email support@shifu.trade. Shifu logs every alert it refuses, with the reason, on its Alerts page.

Will live trades match the backtest?

Automation sends the same orders the chart shows. Live fills can still differ, because slippage, delays and partial fills happen. Shifu's Paper account settles exits at your next alert, so use it to check your setup, not to predict results. Then read Live vs Backtest.
