About Clear Levels

Clear Levels is an educational and entertainment service. We publish the real-time, simulated trades of an automated bot named Scrooge on MES & MNQ micro futures — every trade it takes and every setup it passes on — so you can watch a rules-based system operate in the open.

What we believe

Most trading content hides its losers. We do the opposite: Scrooge posts every simulated trade in real time — the wins, the losses, and the days it sits on its hands. It trades a simulated account, in the open, on a fixed set of rules. The point isn't to sell you a dream; it's to let you watch a patient, disciplined process play out honestly, for education and entertainment.

How Scrooge works

Scrooge is software that follows a fixed set of rules, not a person. It identifies the day's key levels, waits for a setup that matches its rules, and — when it takes a trade — posts the direction, entry, stop, and target, then manages the position with a "Banker" exit (first half at target) and a "Runner" exit (the rest on a trailing stop). It's picky and patient; if it doesn't see a clean level, it passes.

The algorithm is experimental and under continuous development — it has evolved from a simple breakout system to a directional-bias filter. See how it works and our journey for the full detail.

Why you can trust the numbers

  • Simulated, not cherry-picked. Results are simulated forward (paper) trades — no real money — and every trade is posted as it happens, not selected after the fact.
  • Honest about limitations. Hypothetical performance has inherent limitations and is not indicative of future results. Our full risk disclosure carries the complete CFTC hypothetical-performance statement.
  • Versioned and dated. Because the algorithm changes, results you see may have come from a different version than the one running today. See the live track record.

What Clear Levels is not

We are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or commodity trading advisor, and nothing we publish is personalized financial advice or a recommendation to trade. All content is general and impersonal — identical for every subscriber and not tailored to your situation. We never manage, direct, or access anyone's account or money. Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss; you are solely responsible for your own decisions. Read the full risk disclosure before acting on anything you see here.
