Verdict Strategy Builder — Build

Verdict Strategy Builder — Run
A live evolution run charting best and median fitness per generation alongside population diversity and the top strategies so far.

Watch evolution happen live — fitness climbing per generation, population diversity, and the best candidates so far.

Verdict Strategy Builder — Results

Built to find real edge

Every feature points at one outcome: strategies that hold up out of sample.

Genetic strategy evolution

A genetic engine breeds and mutates thousands of NinjaTrader 8 strategy variants to search for genuine, durable edge — not luck.

Rigorous validation

Walk-forward, out-of-sample and robustness checks separate real edge from curve-fit noise before anything reaches your charts.

A clear verdict

Every finalist earns an evidence-backed verdict and a ranked leaderboard, so you know what survived and why.

Built for NinjaTrader 8

Export clean, standalone NinjaScript strategies you can compile and run in NinjaTrader 8. Your market data stays on your machine — only small result metadata syncs.

Offline-first licensing

Keep building on a plane. The app checks your license in hourly while you're online and keeps working offline for up to 21 days.

Private cloud backup

Builds, runs and leaderboards back up privately to your account and restore across your 2 devices.

Genetic evolution that searches for real edge

A genetic algorithm breeds and mutates thousands of NinjaTrader 8 strategy variants across the search space you define — then keeps what performs and recombines it, generation after generation.

  • Thousands of variants per run, not a handful of hand-guesses
  • Indicator-block search space with regime filters and risk rules
  • Population, generations, crossover and elitism all under your control

Verdict Strategy Builder — Param stress
A strategy’s parameter-stress analysis, ranking each parameter by how much fitness it retains when nudged.

Validation that separates edge from curve-fit

Survivors are stress-tested the way a skeptic would: held-out windows, resampled equity paths, and parameter neighborhoods — so what reaches your charts has already been attacked.

  • Walk-forward and out-of-sample testing on data the search never saw
  • Monte Carlo resampling and parameter-stress neighborhoods
  • A fixed battery of quality gates every finalist must clear

System requirements

Supported platforms

  • macOS macOS 12 (Monterey) or later · Apple Silicon & Intel
  • Windows Windows 10 or 11 · 64-bit
  • NinjaTrader NinjaTrader 8 (Windows) to run exported strategies — the companion app itself runs on either OS

Suggested specs

  • Multi-core CPU — evolution runs are CPU-bound, so more cores mean faster generations
  • 8 GB RAM minimum · 16 GB recommended
  • About 2 GB of free disk, plus room for your imported bar data
  • Occasional internet — one-time activation plus a background license check-in; works offline for up to 21 days

Questions, answered

Does it work offline?

Yes. The hot path is fully local. While you're online the app checks your license in hourly in the background; offline, everything keeps working for up to 21 days before it needs to reconnect. Activation itself requires being online once per device.

How many devices can I use?

Your license includes 2 platform-agnostic seats — any mix of Windows and macOS. You can deactivate a device from your account at any time to free a seat.

Is my strategy data private?

Your builds and runs back up privately to your own account so you can restore them. Only you see them in the app; the operator can access them for support and backup. Other customers never can, and your local market data never leaves your machine.

Is there a free trial?

No free trial — but your first purchase is covered by a 14-day money-back guarantee: full refund any time until you export your first strategy. Billing is handled by Stripe as merchant of record, and you can cancel anytime; the app keeps working until the period ends.

How does the money-back guarantee work?

Email support within 14 days of your first purchase and you get a full refund — right up until you export your first strategy. Exported NinjaScript is standalone code that's yours to keep forever, so the first export ends refund eligibility; the app tells you before it happens.

Which platforms are supported?

macOS 12 or later (Apple Silicon and Intel) and 64-bit Windows 10/11. NinjaTrader 8 itself runs on Windows — the companion app builds and validates on either OS. Full details in the system requirements below.
