About

Simula is a web-based, no-code workspace for designing and evaluating trading strategies. Traders build strategies visually by selecting indicators and conditions, then backtest them against historical data for forex, cryptocurrency, and U.S. stocks. Data includes candles as short as one minute for forex, crypto, and the largest U.S. stocks. Users can review results with Monte Carlo simulation, walk-forward analysis, and parameter optimization, and account for commissions, spreads, and slippage on eligible plans. Strategy alerts can be sent to Slack, Discord, and Telegram. Simula is intended for traders who want to develop, compare, and refine systematic strategy ideas without writing code, and assess historical performance before deciding whether to trade. The online application combines strategy design, backtesting, analysis, and alert management.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • TickSurfers provides strong rule-based trading tools, including Jake Bernstein–style indicators, a Larry Williams–based backwardation signal, and a useful seasonality tool for spotting high-probability patterns. They also offer custom-coded strategies for precise entries and exits.
  • I really appreciate that they offer all the market internals and volume indicators if you've had SMB Capital training or are planning on getting the training. I prefer Trading view for my charts and had been looking for these indicators on TradingView. They've done a nice job at making the indicators easy to understand.
  • Im looking forward to learning more about the Larry Williams indicators. Thank you for the free content
  • This is the first time I see Jake's divergence triggers done as indicators. They follow the rules just as I remember learning from Jake.
  • I love TickSurfers! They have a lifetime of knowledge about trading the stock market. They make wall street trade secrets available and accessible to an average guy like myself!

Cons

  • However, the platform currently isn’t accepting new algo-trading subscribers, and the indicators aren’t available on thinkorswim or NinjaTrader. The seasonality indicator could use clearer documentation, and auto-trading is limited to TradeStation, which restricts Interactive Brokers users.
  • My only con is that the algo trading wait-list is closed or not available and there's no indication or information as to when or how to sign up for it. I'm sure many share this same sentiment with the website.
  • No bad experiences so far. Keep up the good work TickSurfers!!
  • Only complaint is that they currently are not offering the algo system, which I think is automated. I have the indicators but I'm sure they could also be automated to take the trades themselves.
  • With all the tools and indicators available it can feel a little bit overwhelming
