General
Do you offer a Done-For-You setup?
Yes! We now offer a Done-For-You setup option where you'll get access to a VPS preloaded with NinjaTrader, all of our strategies, settings, and tools — no technical setup needed. Just log in and start trading.
What is the minimum amount of capital required to trade a cash account?
A live cash account minimum of $15,000 is best suited to trade the ZTA Quant Portfolio on micro futures contracts, and $100,000 if trading E-mini contracts. For trading the prop firm portfolio on a cash account, a $5,000 minimum account equity is suggested to trade 1 contract for each strategy.
Do I get updates or improvements to the strategies?
Yes. While we don't believe in constant tinkering, if we release updates, bug fixes, or improvements, you'll be grandfathered in and receive access at no extra cost.
Do you offer support or help if I get stuck?
Absolutely. For any general technical questions, feel free to ask your question in the #algo-help channel in Discord, or create a support ticket in the #submit-ticket channel and someone from our team will help you out.
Can I turn my own strategy idea into an algo?
Not at this time. Our team is fully focused on building and improving the ZTA portfolio. However, feel free to reach out if you have a compelling idea — we're always open to exploring good fits.
Prop Firms
Can your algos be used with funded trader programs?
Absolutely. Our systems work great with most funded trader programs that allow automated trading. Specifically, we have built a portfolio specifically for prop firm trading. With the ZTAMoneyManager add-on, you can enforce max daily loss, stop trading after drawdowns, and stay within prop firm rules — making it easier to pass and stay funded.
