Three engines, one system
TradeVelocity runs three independent AI engines in parallel — one tuned for fast intraday trading, one for multi-hour swings, one for multi-day positions. Each has its own selectivity, target sizing, expected hold time, and emission cadence.
A single asset can produce up to three signals per scan — one from each profile — and they can disagree. When they all agree on direction, that's the strongest possible confluence the system can produce.
When to use each profile
Scalp
The fastest engine. Looks at short-timeframe price action and tries to catch quick moves that resolve in minutes to hours.
- Active during: liquid trading hours, post-news bursts, breakout days
- Best for: traders watching the dashboard intraday
- Tradeoff: tight stops + fast moves = more whipsaws in chop, more wins in trends
Swing
The default engine for most subscribers. Holds for hours to a few days. Targets are larger than scalp, stops are wider, and the system fires less often but with more conviction.
- Active during: most market regimes
- Best for: working professionals who check 2-3× per day
- Tradeoff: holding overnight; needs stop-loss discipline
Position
The patient engine. Holds for days to weeks. Targets are largest, stops are widest, and signals are rare.
- Active during: clear directional regimes
- Best for: hands-off traders, longer-horizon style
- Tradeoff: long hold times mean exposure to weekend gaps
Why three engines instead of one
Different traders have different psychologies, different time zones, and different opportunity costs. A scalp signal is meaningless to someone who can only check their phone twice a day. A position signal is meaningless to a day-trader who wants action.
By running all three AI profiles, we let YOU pick which signals you act on. The dashboard's filter chips (Grade / Type / Side) make it trivial to focus on just one profile.
Combining all three for maximum quality
When all three AI engines fire on the same asset in the same direction within a few hours of each other, that's the strongest possible confluence. Multi-timeframe agreement is the closest thing to certainty in trading.
Watch for those triple-aligned setups. They're rare, but they're the highest-conviction signals the system produces.
