Automated index-futures signals · Mirrored execution
Northpoint runs a rules-based index-futures strategy — Nasdaq-100, S&P 500 and Dow futures, full-size or micro — on its own systems, around the clock. Each trade it takes is mirrored into your own NinjaTrader, in your own account at your own size, within about a second — and every entry arrives with its protective stop already at your broker. The strategy never leaves our machines. Your money never touches ours.
How it works
Our automated index-futures strategy fills an entry in our own account, on our own systems. The logic that decided it is never distributed, downloaded, or exposed.
A small executor running in your NinjaTrader receives the signal and places the same trade in your account, at the contract size you chose — full-size or micro.
Every entry signal carries its stop and target distances, and our servers refuse to relay one without them. Your brackets rest at your broker — they survive your PC, our servers, and everything in between.
Illustrative mechanics of a mirrored entry. Not a performance claim.
The pipeline
Decide
Rules-based entries, every one carrying a protective stop; the desk halts new entries when its daily loss limit is hit. It trades our own account on the same signals that are sent to you. Your fills, stops and exits are placed by your broker in your account, late signals are discarded rather than chased, and missed trades stay missed — so your results will not match ours exactly.
Publish
The instant our order fills, the entry is published with its stop and target distances attached. Our servers reject any entry signal without a stop — a follower position can never exist unprotected.
Mirror
A small executor — no strategy logic inside — receives the signal over an encrypted stream and enters in your account at your size, on the markets you chose: Nasdaq, S&P, or Dow, full-size or micro.
Protect
Stops and targets are working orders in your account. If your internet drops, your PC sleeps, or our servers vanish, the protection is already there. Late signals are discarded, never chased.
Control
Disable the executor in NinjaTrader, flatten at your broker, or ask us to pause your feed — three independent brakes, and only one belongs to us. Ours can only ever stop new entries or close positions, never open them.
The discipline
These aren't policies we intend to follow. They're behaviors the software cannot do otherwise — several of them found and hardened by adversarial review before a single subscriber connected.
The relay refuses any entry signal that doesn't carry its stop distance. A mirrored position cannot exist without a stop already resting at your broker.
We never hold funds, broker logins, or account credentials, and our servers have no order endpoint. Everything executes inside your own NinjaTrader.
Our remote controls can pause your entries, flatten, or stop your executor. None of them — not one code path — can open a position in your account.
If your executor loses contact with our servers, it stops taking new entries within about two minutes. Open positions keep their broker-side brackets throughout.
If your subscription lapses, new entries stop after a grace window. Nothing is ever flattened or closed because of billing. Ever.
A signal that arrives late is a different trade than the one we took — so it isn't taken at all. Missed trades stay missed; nothing is chased.
The gate
The whole pipeline already runs end to end — real signals, mirrored live onto simulated accounts, every delivery logged with timestamps. Before the first paid subscriber, every condition on the right gets met, and none of them will be softened to fit the results. The forward-test record will be published as it happened, losing trades included.
The record — simulated
Every closed trade from the strategy's simulated forward test appears here as it books — winners, losers, all of it, from a start date fixed in advance. Open positions are never shown. P&L is as booked in the simulated account; commissions, fees and slippage in a live account will differ. Simulated results; see the disclaimer below.

Same dollar scale; each curve follows its own sequence of closed results. The records began on different dates and may differ in execution and cost accounting, so these totals are not a controlled strategy ranking. Strategy 2 starts with its own completed trades; no history is backfilled. Strategy 1 session log → Strategy 1 replays →
Ours stay published at full size, in the same font as the wins — from a start date we committed to before the first trade. A record you can trust is worth more to us than a record that looks good, because the second kind is easy to make and worthless.
After each session we study what the system took, what it skipped, and where the rules held or cost us — entry discipline, exit logic, regime filters. When a rule improves, it improves going forward, on the record. What never changes is the record itself: no restarts, no edits, no quiet do-overs. If the work is real, it has to show up here, in public.
