A Smarter, Simpler Way to Trade Forex
What if you could take a proven trading approach, turn it into your own strategies, test them against years of market data, and automate the trades?
That’s what Pattern Trader is built to do—help you spend less time watching charts and more time living your life.
Let’s take a quick walkthrough of the dashboard.
Meet the TFTC Pattern Trader system.
This truly is a game changer in the Forex Market. Build your own bots, test them against years of historical data, combine them into a portfolio, and automate your trade execution.
STEP 1
Create your own trading rules based on our proven strategy
All you need to do is select the rules, such as which pairs to trade, which time frame charts to trade, and which patterns to trade.
Set your risk, win rate and expectancy and you’re ready to test the strategy.
STEP 2
Test each strategy and test the portfolio
Backtest each strategy over 10 years of data. You can create a group of strategies that fit your criteria and then run them together as a portfolio.
You’ll then be able to run the portfolio on a demo trading account to watch it in action in real time.
STEP 3
Trade live on your MT4 or MT5 account
Once you are ready to go live, simply connect your MT4 or MT5 account and the trades from your portfolio will be placed straight onto your live account.
You will be able to select which trades get placed or you’ll have the option to auto trade the portfolio.
Trading profitably couldn’t get easier than this.
No complicated setup. No VPS to manage. Just connect your compatible account and let Pattern Trader handle the trade execution for you.
Enter the new age of trading,
where your freedom is #1 priority..
Say goodbye to complicated charts, spending hours in front of the screen, and praying if your trades will succeed.
You’ll have 2 options to action your trades:
1. You will receive a notification to your phone and computer, alerting you to a new trade setup. You’ll be able to view the trade and decide if you wish to place the trade or not.
2. There is also an auto trade function available, which allow the software to place each trade for you directly onto your trading account.
Results speak for themselves.
Below is the performance of one of our top-performing bots, built and tested using the TFTC Pattern Trader software with the latest available training and walk-forward data.
Across 569 trades, the bot generated a 2,420.33% return, with an 85.59% annualised return. While the historical testing experienced a maximum drawdown of 33.13%, the overall equity curve shows strong long-term growth and consistency.
But what matters even more is how the strategy performs in live trading.
In the live leaderboard, this bot is currently ranked #2, with a 59.86% return, and 23.90% annualised return across 254 live trades.
Its live drawdown is currently just 11.34%, with a 54% win rate and a positive 1.26 risk/reward ratio.
This is the kind of performance Pattern Trader is designed to uncover—strategies developed from data, tested through walk-forward analysis, and then put to the test in live market conditions.
*Please note that past performance does not guarantee future results*
How does this work ?
1. Select the currency pairs and time frame charts you wish to trade.
2. You’ll be able to create your own rules using the criteria taken from our proven trading strategy. This is a very simple process.
3. Then test the strategy to see if it performs to the level you desire.
4. Create several different strategies if needed.
5. Blend your strategies together to form a portfolio.
6. Test the portfolio over back test data and then test it in live trading conditions on a free demo account. Your computer does not need to be left running and you do not need a VPS as the demo account is run on the software.
7. When you are ready to go live, simply link your live MT4 or MT5 account to the software with the click of a button and the trades will be placed onto your live account, either with your prior approval or 100% automatically.

I'm new to trading. Can I use TFTC Pattern Trader?
Yes, you can.
TFTC Pattern Trader lets you copy bots created by experienced traders on the platform, giving you a good starting point for testing.
However, we don’t recommend running a bot blindly. The more you understand your strategy, the better you’ll be able to build, test and manage it. That said, we strongly recommend developing some trading knowledge along the way.
Pattern Trader makes the technical work easier, but it doesn’t replace understanding what you’re trading. You’ll need to know what your bot is doing and how to manage it when market conditions change.
Pattern Trader does the repetitive work. You stay in control.
How long is my trial period? What's included?
You get 10 days of free Level 0 access to Pattern Trader.
Create and backtest up to 10 bots, explore the platform, and experience its core features—completely free.
When your trial ends, you won't be charged automatically. Subscribe only when you're ready to unlock more premium features, including advanced bot-building options and full automation.
No pressure. No automatic charges.
Do I need my own virtual server to trade?
No, you can simply connect your MT4 or MT5 Account to your Pattern Trader account.
No need to have your computer on and no need for your own virtual server which would cost you $30-50/month and you would have to maintain this including periodic updates.
If you have a MT4 or MT5 account, Pattern trader will take care of connecting your account to your deployed TFTC Pattern Trader bot settings.
Do I need to leave my computer running?
No. TFTC Pattern Trader runs your deployed strategies through its own servers, so you don't need to leave your computer on or maintain your own VPS.
There are many "robots" and different Forex copy services out there. How is this one any different?
TFTC Pattern Trader is designed differently from traditional fixed-rule Expert Advisors. Rather than relying on one fixed set of trading instructions, you can create and test your own combination of pairs, timeframes, patterns, trends, risk and expectancy, then combine strategies into a portfolio. The system also adapts as new market data becomes available.
What is forward testing and why is it important?
Forward testing is the next step after backtesting. While backtesting shows you how a strategy would have performed using historical market data, forward testing puts that same strategy to work on new market data as it happens in real time.
This is important because a strategy can look great on historical data but perform differently when exposed to new and changing market conditions.
With TFTC Pattern Trader, you can take your backtested strategy or portfolio and run it on a demo account in live market conditions before risking real money.
Think of it as the difference between looking in the rear-view mirror and looking through the windshield: backtesting shows you where the strategy has been, while forward testing gives you a chance to see how it performs as the market moves forward.
Forward testing does not guarantee future results, but it provides an additional and valuable layer of validation beyond historical backtesting.
Can I control my risk?
Yes, you can assign your risk per trade in multiple ways.
There are options for a specific dollar amount to risk per trade, a specific lot size per trade, and the two recommended options a specific percentage risk per trade, and a dynamic risk.
Dynamic risk depends on the strength of the setup as well as the expectancy.
What happens when my strategy has a losing trade or losing month?
Losses are a normal part of trading—even with a well-tested strategy. No strategy wins every trade or every month.
Instead of judging your strategy by individual results, look at its performance over a meaningful sample of trades. A losing trade or month doesn't necessarily mean the strategy isn't working. What matters is whether it continues to perform within the expectations established during testing.
What time frames and pairs can I trade?
You can trade individual pairs or pairs that have been regrouped together in the Majors, Minors, and Exotics.
The M15, M30, H1, H2, H4, H6, H8, H12, Daily, and Weekly time frames are available. Due to lack of sufficient data you may find very few Weekly setups in backtesting and in real time.
What if I want or need to change my settings?
You can create another bot and choose how many bots you would like to deployed on one MT4 or MT5 account or multiple accounts under the "Dashboard" section on the left.
With Level 1 access, you can create up to 10 bots and deploy them to Paper trading.
With Level 2 access, you can create up to 10 bots, deploy them to Paper trading and Live trading (manual acceptance of signals)
With Level 3 access, you can create up to 20 bots, deploy them to Paper trading and Live trading (choose either manual acceptance or full automation for 1 MT4/MT5 account)
With Level 4 access, you can create up to 30 bots, deploy them to Paper trading and Live trading (choose either manual acceptance or full automation for 3 MT4/MT5 accounts)
With Level 5 access, you can create up to 50 bots, deploy them to Paper trading and Live trading (choose either manual acceptance or full automation for 5 MT4/MT5 accounts)
How do I know when I'm ready to go live?
- Complete your backtesting.
- Forward test the portfolio on a demo account.
- Make sure you understand the expected drawdown and risk.
- Confirm you are comfortable with the strategy's performance before considering live trading.
Is the system trading exactly what is taught in the course?
The pairs are the same with the option to add a few Exotic pairs.
The timeframes are identical, M15 through Weekly.
The trends and patterns are the same.
The risk per trade options are up to you but designed for low risk and consistent returns.
The software does not always take into account round numbers, Bollinger Bands, or swing high/lows. The main focus is the reward:risk, along with the trend candle patterns from the 10 year historical backtest.
Can I cancel my membership anytime?
While we suggest giving this at least 3 months as the system only incurs a loss of 1 or 2 months a year, you can cancel anytime as there is only a month to month commitment.
There are monthly and yearly options. If you are on a yearly plan and decide to cancel, it will only be at the end of the 12 months. There will be a reduced fee for a yearly subscription.
Other Important Information:
1. Drawdowns, like with any other system should be taken into account. With most conservative backtests, the highest drawdowns are between 10 and 15%. This is also ultimately up to the user when they select their risk settings.
2. This is a 100% subscription-based service. No information regarding the strategy or evaluation of trades will be given.
3. As with all trading, past performance is no indication of future performance.
4. Any account setup or technical issues can be dealt with by the support team at TFTC Pattern Trader (who provides the interface between our account and your account). Part of the monthly subscription fee goes directly to TFTC Pattern Trader for the use of their servers, billing system, and support team. Note that most Forex VPS servers cost between USD$30-50 per month and you would then need to manage the server yourself. With TFTC Pattern Trader, once you link your account, choose your settings, and select your risk profile, there is nothing else for you to do.
5. There are no refunds. If you choose to end the service, you must cancel through TFTC Pattern Trader. There are no contracts and you can cancel at any time.
6. All trades are taken at your own risk and no-one from TFTC Pattern Trader or The Forex Trading Coach is responsible for any losses.
