The story

What led me to launch a SaaS? I needed a tool.

I've spent years building automation tools for my own use. Like many developers interested in algorithmic trading, I had strategies running on TradingView and I needed a reliable way to auto-execute them on MetaTrader 5.

I was paying $39/month to PineConnector and it more or less worked, but it was missing the things that matter most when real capital is on the line: news filter, drawdown protection, an AI layer to filter out bad repainting scripts... and a way to talk to the person who built it.

I'm a developer. The first thing I did was complain. Then I checked if I could build it better. And a few months later, here we are :D

In October 2025 I started development: first the backend, then logos, social media... In February 2026 I launched the first version with two plans (Starter and Trader) and the first customers started using it. To this day I'm still the only person writing code, the only one answering your support emails, the only one shipping updates. It's not marketing — it's exactly what it is.

Under the hood

Real stack. No lock-in.

SignalForge isn't a black box. This is exactly what runs when you send a TradingView alert to the webhook. If anything here surprises you, ask me directly.

Backend

Python / Flask

Gunicorn workers on Railway US East. Median webhook latency under 200ms.

Database

PostgreSQL

Managed Postgres for users, subscriptions and signal logs. Daily backups.

Signal queue

APScheduler

Asynchronous webhook processing. Each signal executes without blocking the next.

Expert Advisor

Native MQL5

Compiled .ex5, works on any MT5 broker. No middleman process.

Payments

Stripe

PCI-compliant checkout. Cancel anytime from your dashboard.

Market data

TwelveData + Yahoo

Real-time OHLCV for news filter and AI analysis. Broker data for execution.

The journey so far

Building in public.

No venture capital, no co-founders, no artificial growth. Just shipping code and learning.

OCT 2025

First line of code

Flask webhook receiver + MT5 EA prototype. Tested on a personal demo account with my own TradingView strategies.

DEC 2025

Prop Firm Shield

Built the daily loss limit + drawdown protection layer. Prop firms (FTMO, The5Ers, FundingPips) have strict breach rules; the Shield enforces them automatically before any signal executes.

FEB 2026

Launch and first customers

Launched the first public version with the Starter plan at $4.99/mo. First users arrived in the first weeks. I onboarded every single one personally.

APR 2026

YouTube channel and MQL5 Market

Videos published on YouTube, EAs published on MQL5 Market. Started public documentation of the process to earn trust the slow way.

COMING Q3 2026

Plan Pro

Cloud VPS, performance dashboard, unlimited accounts and a smart signal filter I've been developing. The version I've been building for myself. Join the waitlist on the pricing page.

What I commit to not breaking

Three things I won't break. Ever.

These aren't marketing slogans. They're the reason I can sleep knowing the code I write runs on other people's real accounts.

You always know who you're talking to

No hidden team. No anonymous support queue. My name, my face, my direct email. When something doesn't work, you write to me — not to a ticket that gets lost.

Your trades and data are yours

Signals and P&L logs are used only for your dashboard. Nothing is sold, shared with brokers, or used to train external models.

Direct support, not outsourced

I build the product and I answer support. No customer service department, no outsourcing, no "we're transferring your query to the team". As fast as I can, usually the same day.

Get in touch

Talk to me directly.

I read every message. Average reply time: under 12 hours, usually much less. No ticket numbers, no bots, no support tiers. Just me on the other side.
