WS Terminal Documentation

The user manual for WS Terminal — the FVG Pyramid Futures Engine by W.S. Trading Co.

What is WS Terminal?

WS Terminal is an automated futures trader. It detects Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on intraday candles, places retracement limit orders at configurable depths into the gap, and supports pyramiding (adding contracts when additional same-direction FVGs trigger). It runs as a packaged .exe on your own Windows machine and connects to Interactive Brokers via IB Gateway or TWS.
