Algorithmic trading

How Growth One researches, builds and runs the systematic trading algorithms behind its proprietary trading.

What it is

Rules, not reflexes.

Algorithmic trading means that every trading decision follows predefined, testable rules and is executed by software. Entries, exits, position sizes and risk limits are set in advance, so a system behaves the same on a quiet morning as in a volatile news hour.

That is the point for us. It takes emotion out of the process, makes every decision measurable, and lets us improve a strategy based on evidence instead of opinion. We work exclusively with rule-based systems: clearly defined logic, tested extensively and executed without discretion.

Our process

From hypothesis to live system, in four steps.

01

Research

We start from market data, looking for behaviour that repeats and that we can explain.

02

Build

Each idea is translated into precise rules and coded as an algorithm for MetaTrader 5.

03

Validate

Rigorous backtesting and stress tests across market regimes, followed by live testing in real markets.

04

Deploy & monitor

Automated execution with risk limits built in, overseen by experienced people on every trading day.

How we trade
Markets

Gold at the core

The majority of our trading volume is in XAU/USD, gold against the US dollar. We occasionally trade other major currency pairs, such as EUR/USD and USD/JPY, and indices such as the Dow Jones.

Risk

Risk management comes first

Every strategy has a fixed stop per trade, strict position sizing and equity limits, and is stress-tested across market regimes. We do not use martingale or similar high-risk approaches.

Technology

Built on proven platforms

Our algorithms run on MetaTrader 5, with charting and analysis in TradingView. Orders are executed automatically, in milliseconds.

People

Automated, not unattended

Algorithms execute; people oversee. Data-driven decisions are combined with experienced human oversight, so we can step in when market conditions call for it.

Trading in financial markets involves substantial risk, including the loss of capital. Past results are no guarantee of future results.

For entrepreneurs

Working on trading algorithms yourself?

We like to spar with entrepreneurs about algorithm development: strategy design, testing and deployment.
