Why LucraX
We sell infrastructure, not signals.
The trading-tools market is full of two bad options: marketplaces selling rented alpha, and no-code wizards that fall apart the moment your idea gets specific. We built what's missing: the boring 80% that turns a working idea into a running position. You bring the strategy. We handle backtest, paper, live, and the safety rails in between.
Backtests that actually predict
Most platforms simulate against sampled data and pretend execution is free. We replay every minute of real Binance and Databento history through the exact same engine that runs your live trades, so what you see in research is what you get in production.
Order flow, not just candles
Real markets are made of orders, not bars. We pre-compute delta, cumulative delta, absorption and relative volume from raw exchange tick data so your strategies can react to who is hitting the book, minutes before price catches up.
Risk controls you can sleep on
Daily loss limit. Max drawdown. Real-balance position sizing. Leverage clamping. Position-size caps. CME market hours. Halt-and-page when any threshold breaks. The boring infrastructure that keeps a bad day from becoming a bad month.
Your keys. Your funds. Your exchange.
We never custody your capital. API keys are AES-256-GCM encrypted with per-user derived keys, and you can disable them from your exchange the moment you want us out. We're tooling, not a counterparty.
Stops that outlive us
Stop-loss and take-profit are placed as native orders on your exchange, not held in our memory. If our servers vanish, AWS goes down, or your internet drops mid-trade, your protection still fires. Most bots can't say that.
One platform, every market
Run a momentum strategy on BTC perps, a mean-reversion play on Gold futures, and a breakout on the S&P 500, all from one dashboard, one risk model, one P&L view. Crypto and CME, no code, no integration headaches.
From idea to fill
Build. Backtest. Paper. Live.
Four steps. One uninterrupted workflow. Same engine the whole way through, so the strategy you research is the strategy you ship.
- 01Build
Compose strategies from 40+ indicators: classics like EMA, RSI, MACD, ATR, Bollinger, ADX, VWAP and Stochastic, market structure like FVGs, supply/demand zones, killzones and daily bias, plus regime filters and order-flow signals like delta and absorption. Visual builder or raw JSON. No Python required.
- 02Backtest
Replay against years of 1-minute data: BTC/ETH/SOL since 2020, plus ES/GC/SI via Databento. Twenty-eight metrics per run: Sharpe, Sortino, drawdown, profit factor, win rate, monthly breakdown, and every individual trade with entry, exit, fees, and indicator state.
- 03Paper
Connect a testnet or paper account. Same engine, same data feed, real market conditions, zero capital at risk. Watch your strategy fire under genuine volatility before trusting it with a dollar.
- 04Live
Flip the switch. We check signals every minute, place orders through your own exchange account, attach native stops and targets, monitor positions over WebSocket, and reconcile on reconnect. Every fill lands in your dashboard in real time.
Safety, by default
Designed for real money.
Most trading platforms make the news for the wrong reasons. We built ours from the assumption that your capital matters more than our growth metrics, and we'd rather tell you exactly what we don't do than wave around buzzwords.
Your funds never leave your exchange
LucraX is not a broker, not a custodian, and not a counterparty. We hold an encrypted API key that places orders for you. That's it. Revoke it from the exchange side any time and we lose all access instantly.
Circuit breakers that actually break the circuit
Set a daily loss limit. Set a max drawdown threshold. Cross either one and every active strategy halts mid-flight. Re-enabling requires you, in person, on the dashboard. No silent recoveries.
Stops at the exchange, not in our memory
Stop-loss and take-profit are placed as native orders directly on Binance, IB, BitMEX, wherever you trade. If LucraX goes dark for any reason, your protection still fires at the venue. The code that should always work shouldn't depend on the code that might not.
Hardened by default, not on request
TOTP 2FA. Per-user-derived AES-256-GCM keys for credential storage. Audit log on every sensitive operation. JWT refresh-token rotation. Standard fintech hygiene, on by default, not buried three settings deep.
Stop trading on vibes.
We're onboarding alpha users in small batches: traders who want infrastructure, not signals. Leave your email and we'll send a code when a slot opens.
