WHY RESPONSIBLE FOREX TRADING EXISTS

I started as
the customer.

Looking for something I could understand, evaluate, and use.

Read my full story ↗

I began trading forex while touring as a classical pianist. Like many traders, I bought signals, courses, and trading bots, looking for something that could hold up over time. Too many disappointed me.

In 2015, I began designing my own automated strategies. I wanted to understand the rules, the drawdowns, and what happened after the promising results.

That experience shaped RFT: software with clear settings, public forward records, and explanations that include the difficult parts. I want you to have enough information to make your own decision.

The explanation matters, too.

THE EVIDENCE BEHIND THE APPROACH

Start with a record
you can investigate.

This is what I mean by an open record. Examine the account history, its gains, and its difficult periods before deciding whether the approach makes sense to you.

A CUSTOMER’S POWERHOUSE ACCOUNT

A customer’s account. A multi-year history.

Night Sky gives you a multi-year record to investigate. It uses a high-risk configuration: follow the account’s gains, losing periods, and drawdowns through changing markets.

Powerhouse’s illustrative profit ranges.

These annualized illustrations are separate from the actual returns in the linked accounts. They are planning examples, not forecasts. Actual results can be negative.

RFT-supplied ranges for selected configurations. Account versions and settings may differ. Risk labels are relative; protection references do not guarantee maximum losses. Starting balances are guidance, not safety thresholds. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

FROM THE CUSTOMER REVIEWS

The support and honesty
matter after the sale.

“This is not a get rich quick scheme and the owner makes no such claim. On the contrary he is cautious and sober, which is refreshing compared to the competition.”

“Ryan Brown, developer of the Architect algo is the real deal. A guy who is honest, who develops his own algos and has 20 years of trading experience.”

BEFORE YOU START

A few straight answers.

Do I need Architect as well as Powerhouse?

No. Powerhouse is a complete product with six supplied strategies. Architect is a separate choice for individual strategies and more customization. You do not need both to get started.

Are the percentages actual account returns?

No. The ranges on this page are illustrative annualized planning examples supplied by RFT. Open the linked forward accounts to see their actual recorded performance, dates, gains, losses, and drawdowns. The illustrations do not promise what your account will earn.

What do I need to run Powerhouse?

A compatible MT5 account, suitable balance and broker conditions, and a computer or VPS that keeps MT5 running when the strategies need it. Review the product’s balance and leverage requirements. Broker spreads, commissions, swaps, and optional VPS costs are separate from the software price.

Can Powerhouse lose money?

Yes. Losing trades and drawdowns are part of trading. Some strategies use grid and progressive position sizing and can experience substantial losses. Protection settings do not guarantee execution or prevent every loss. Begin on a demo trading account while learning the setup.

What should I look for in the 10-day demo?

Check installation, settings, trade sizing, exposure, and position management. Ten days cannot establish long-term profitability, and some strategies may trade infrequently during the trial. Inspect the longer forward records alongside your demo experience.

Where can I get help?

Use the setup guidance, email Ryan, or join the RFT Discord community. You can ask about account compatibility before buying.
