Hi, I'm Crystal — the trader behind TurnKey Futures Strategies.
I got into futures trading the same way I get into most things — I bet I could learn it, and dove in. I was looking for a way to expand my income sources, and futures gave me something I could actually study, automate, and scale on my own terms.
I wanted something different. A lot of automated strategies fire on whatever logic the developer baked in and that's it — you can't touch them, can't override, can't manually adjust the stop or target mid-trade. Set-it-and-forget-it isn't how I trade, and it's not how I want to sell strategies.
So I built strategies that take the emotion out of the equation by firing automatically on real data, but leave room for intuition when you need it. Drag the stop, drag the target, change your mind on position size mid-trade — the strategies play nicely with manual adjustments while a trade is open. You get the discipline of automation and the flexibility of manual trading at the same time. The data fires the entry; you keep the steering wheel.
I'm not a set-it-and-forget-it person on the maintenance side either. I monitor every strategy's performance, post in Discord when something looks off, and re-tune the parameters every 3–4 months. The tuned templates are available now as the Templates Pass — my current settings, ready to load and updated as I tune. You can also adjust the params yourself anytime — the strategies are yours and the docs walk you through it.
If a strategy stops working, I'll be the first to flag it. I've never been afraid to say "turn this one off for now" when a regime shifts. That's the difference between selling code and standing behind it.
My tuning always targets prop firm rules. To me that's the easiest path for new traders — you're not risking your own capital, the rules are well-defined, and an eval is cheaper than funding a real account. Subscribe to a strategy, buy an eval, and you've got a low-risk way to actually see whether the system fits your style.
I run these strategies across six micro futures contracts — MES, MGC, MCL, M2K, MNQ, SIL. The data in the analyzer is from my current active configurations. The Discord is where I'm at if you've got questions.
A strategy purchase is the NinjaTrader 8 .cs file. You can run that strategy on any of the six instruments (MES, MGC, MCL, M2K, MNQ, SIL) on any timeframe. One license covers unlimited markets.
Every 3 to 4 months I re-run optimization sweeps on every strategy across the 6 instruments. The new tuned parameter sets ("templates") ship as ready-to-load files for NinjaTrader 8.
They're available now as the Templates Pass ($39/mo) — my current settings, updated as I tune. Join the Discord to hear when each new drop lands.
Subscription (live now): Pay monthly. You get the encrypted strategy code, Discord access, and performance alerts. Tuned templates are available as the Templates Pass add-on. Cancel anytime.
Lifetime (coming soon): Pay once, own the code forever. Lifetime tiers are still in setup — for now, the monthly subscription is the path to the strategies.
Yes. Your license covers your personal use across multiple machines. Sharing the code with other traders is not permitted.
No. The .cs files compile in NinjaTrader's NinjaScript Editor with a single keypress. I provide install instructions and the Discord community is there if you get stuck. A full Trader Course covering install through live deployment is coming soon.
I monitor every strategy's behavior and post in Discord when one looks like it's slumping or the regime has shifted. You'll get a heads-up so you can disable it and watch from the sidelines. Once quarterly templates launch, a re-tuned version will follow if the slump was driven by parameter drift.
All sales are final — no refunds. If you'd like to evaluate a strategy before committing to a Lifetime license, my Starter Subscription ($99/month) is the lowest-risk way: same code, same support, cancel anytime. If you have trouble installing or running the strategy after purchase, email me at turnkeyfuturesstrategies@gmail.com — I'll work with you directly to get it sorted.
Subscription cancellations: Cancel anytime through Gumroad. Access continues through your current billing period; you won't be billed for the next cycle.
I'm not offering 1-on-1 consultations right now. Once the Trader Course launches (coming soon), it'll cover the same ground I'd cover one-on-one — install through live deployment. In the meantime, Discord support is included with every purchase, and it's the fastest way to get a question answered.
