# Paradox Algo

> Paradox Algo is a quantitative software company that publishes proprietary Pine Script indicators, automated strategy scripts, and a macOS-based AI strategy optimizer (Stratera) for use on the TradingView platform. We are not a signal service, a trading bot, a financial advisor, or a registered investment firm. Members run the software on their own TradingView accounts and either place trades themselves or route alerts through their own webhook platform to their own broker account. We never trade on anyone's behalf.

Founded in August 2022 in Austin, Texas. The product ecosystem consists of four algorithmic strategies, six standalone indicators, and the Stratera AI optimizer — all bundled under a single membership.

## Core products

- [Paradox Algo (flagship strategy)](https://paradoxalgo.com/paradox-algo): Multi-asset algorithmic framework with built-in entries, exits, and risk modules (v7.5, published 2026-09-19; webhook providers: Shifu (the default), PickMyTrade, TradersPost, CrossTrade, Custom Template).
- [Quantum Edge](https://paradoxalgo.com/quantum-edge): Mean-reversion strategy for the index futures (MNQ, NQ, MES, ES) that fades overextended moves, confirms each entry and stands aside through volatility spikes (v2; Pro tier; webhook providers: PickMyTrade on Tradovate, TradersPost, Custom Template).
- [Kairos Scalper](https://paradoxalgo.com/kairos-scalper): High-frequency futures scalping strategy for fast charts (3- to 5-minute; typically MNQ, MES, ES, CL), built for the New York morning session (v1.6, published 2026-09-21; the same five webhook providers, with PickMyTrade as the default; daily guardrails: trade limit, risk limit, profit target, loss circuit breaker, recovery period, max hold).
- [Aurum](https://paradoxalgo.com/aurum): Gold futures session system for MGC1! / GC1! on the 15-minute chart (v1.2, published 2026-09-22, first released 2026-09-06; Pro tier). Measures each session's reference levels, acts on a decisive move beyond them later in the day, flat by the daily close except for an optional overnight carry (on by default) of a trade already well ahead; sizing by conditions, pause after drawdown, prop rails, fill-driven alerts (one alert: "Order fills and alert() function calls"), webhook payloads for Shifu (exact gold contract, like MGCZ6) / PickMyTrade / TradersPost / CrossTrade / custom. Not tuned for other markets or timeframes.
- [Stratera AI Optimizer](https://paradoxalgo.com/stratera): macOS desktop app that automates parameter sweeps, walk-forward analysis, and backtest reports across all Paradox strategies (current version: v1.2.15, released 2026-09-22 — security and reliability update: subscription confirmed at startup so the Claude connector is ready right after a restart or update, every update verified as an official release before it installs, keeps working from the most recent confirmation if the license service is briefly unreachable, sign in with the Pro subscription email; v1.2.14 (2026-09-02) fixed report reading and scoring, so studies scored before it should be reset and re-run).

## Indicators

- [SignalWave](https://paradoxalgo.com/signalwave): Quality-graded trend-regime indicator (current public version: v4.2, published 2026-09-23 — adds optional webhook automation; v4.1 was published 2026-08-26). Grades every regime flip before it reaches the chart; trail automation (Stop Envelope, Trail Update alerts, opt-in per-bar trail webhook); 25 asset-class x style presets; rejection-confirmed swing marks; 9 stable-title alerts; zero repainting. Identifies trend regimes; does not issue trade recommendations.
- [EdgeFlow](https://paradoxalgo.com/edgeflow): Bounded momentum-and-flow oscillator for entry timing (current public version: v3.3, live 2026-09-08 — v3.1 recalibrated the three responsiveness modes and added optional bar-close confirmation; v3.2 / v3.3 moved the stretched zone further out so the Overbought / Oversold alerts fire less often (titles unchanged), added an optional Hide Markers in Ranging Markets setting, fixed daily-and-higher readings and heat comparability, and replaced the banded fill with a seamless gradient; engine unchanged).
- [DeepWave](https://paradoxalgo.com/deepwave): v4.1 (published 2026-09-02) — clock-adjusted volatility with session-long clock precision and weekend-aware baselines. Market activity vs the time-of-day normal on a 0–100 scale, Expected Range for sizing stops/targets, four activity states with six alerts, calibrated 1-minute to 6-hour. Sizes the move, does not time trades or predict direction.
- [TrendScore](https://paradoxalgo.com/trendscore): Trend-strength score from -100 to +100 in its own panel (current public version: v3.4, published 2026-09-04 — chart labels now follow the alert gate exactly, warm-up countdown corrected, tooltips clarified; score, plots and all eight alert titles unchanged). Five states from Strong Bull to Strong Bear, optional strength and confirmation filters, self-calibrating across symbols and timeframes. Designed for 15-minute charts and above.
- [QuantumFlow](https://paradoxalgo.com/quantumflow): SMC/ICT auto-mapper for order blocks, fair value gaps, liquidity sweeps, premium/discount zones — plus session killzones, non-repainting HTF bias, 19 optional ICT tools, a Chart Density control, and webhook automation (current public version: v3.3, published 2026-09-18).
- [Nova AI Trader](https://paradoxalgo.com/nova): Setup-scoring indicator (current public version: v2.5, published 2026-09-28) — every entry graded, with three targets and a stop drawn; optional webhook automation (Shifu, PickMyTrade, TradersPost, CrossTrade, Generic, Custom Template), broker-side trailing and, on PickMyTrade with Tradovate, broker-side breakeven.

## Important framing

Paradox Algo positions itself as a quantitative software company, not a financial firm. Every Paradox Algo script is published on TradingView, and members can run each strategy's historical backtest in TradingView's Strategy Tester. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Trading involves substantial risk. All content is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.
