The platform

How Nature Law AI Quant works

We carry out research and trading, planning every detail to make our trading increasingly competitive on these 10 markets. You bring the strategies you built with StrategyQuant X: the engines optimize them, the accounts measure them.

The purpose of the project

All the subscriptions and proceeds are collected to fund research activities and improve the engines, with the goal of improving the trading of everyone who takes part. This has been the purpose of the project since the lab was born in 2014.

The project is designed to work in a way similar to a hedge fund: research and production run side by side, and the results — what works and what does not — go back into the Strategy DB and into the engines, for every subscriber, not just for the fund.

Where the strategies come from, and how we optimize them

We work with our partners StrategyQuant and AWS to build top-tier Quantitative Strategies that we make available to our traders. We have also developed two systems to optimize those strategies: Realistic Engine AI 3.0 based on Variables and Nature Law AI Quant 1.0 based on Complex Algorithms.

Realistic Engine AI 3.0Base & Premium

Dynamically optimizes strategies on variables such as risk, monthly drawdown limit, break-even stop, profit targets and trailing stop, recalculating the data over 9 years of market swings.

Base: you use the optimizations published by Stefano. Premium: you optimize on your own, with the Editor 3.0 and the support of AI.

Nature Law AI Quant 1.0Premium only · coming soon

Optimizes StrategyQuant X strategies with three algorithms. The method is the same for all three: the AI studies the behavior of whatever produced the greatest profit and derives from it a set of custom rules, strategy by strategy. What changes is where they act — one on the entry, two on the exit — and the target is always the Win Rate.

Seed
permission to trade

Studies the contexts of the most profitable opportunities and derives a filter from them. When the current context is compatible with the quantitative analysis, Seed grants the MT5 strategy permission to trade. Fewer trades, higher Win Rate.

Spiral
the medium- and long-term exit

Studies the morphology of the most profitable trends and derives the exit rules that raise the Win Rate on extended trends.

Ratio
the short-term exit

Studies the same morphology on the short term, to raise the Win Rate where it counts for weekly and intraday profits.

This is an open research lab, not a pre-packaged course. We work together on data-driven strategies: manual (Cash-AR 2026) and automated (quant + AI).
Zero gurus. Zero promises. Just data, method and a collaborative team.

The Strategy DB improves every week

Next-generation strategies for trading mainly with prop trading firms: with the Realistic Engine AI editor 3.0 we can control the constraints imposed by the various partners and operate within the required limits — drawdown, profit targets, number of trades, etc. We carry out research and share it with our Traders in the Strategy DB.

We have ongoing research activities with Darwinex Zero · FTMO · 5%ERS · Alpine Funded · FundedVerse, and we are in contact with other potential partners to set up the collaborations, develop strategies, test them and publish them for our Traders.
