RYAN BROWN · FOUNDER & STRATEGY DESIGNER

I wanted systems
I could question.

I started trading in 2005 while touring internationally as a classical pianist with The 5 Browns. After buying signals, courses, and bots that didn’t hold up, I began designing my own trading systems in 2015.

I founded Responsible Forex Trading in 2020. Today I design and test the strategies and work with experienced developers to build Powerhouse and Architect for MT5.

WHY I BUILT RFT

The questions became
part of the product.

A result means more when I can see what produced it, what risk it took, and what happened when it stopped winning.

Test beyond the good month.

Long histories and forward trading help reveal weaknesses that a short winning period can hide. They do not make future results certain.

Keep risk visible.

Drawdowns, exposure, and losing periods belong in the conversation alongside returns. I want customers to understand the setup before running it.

Make the starting point usable.

Powerhouse and Architect include supplied strategies, installation tools, and guidance. You can begin by evaluating a working setup.

A QUESTION I EXPECT

Why sell software
if I trade it myself?

Selling software is another income stream that helps fund development, testing, and diversification. A strong account record is not a reason to put everything into a single strategy.

I currently run 49 accounts testing different strategies across Powerhouse and Architect. A high win rate gets attention, but drawdown, sizing, losses, and the account’s full history are what help me judge an approach.
