For futures traders · Windows and Mac

Catch the trade before
it costs you.

Magnum Opus is a trading workspace that knows your rules. It plans your morning, watches your session, and steps in with a letter from you when you start to tilt.

Your journal stays on your computer Read-only: never touches your orders Not financial advice

Connects read-only to TopstepX Rule presets for Topstep, Apex, MyFundedFutures, Lucid and more Not affiliated with any prop firm

The problem

You know your rules. You break them anyway.

  • After a loss, when you need it back.
  • On trade four, when your limit was three.
  • Five minutes before red news.

Your edge rarely fails in the setup. It fails in the few minutes after a mistake, when nobody is watching. Magnum Opus is built for those minutes.

How it works

One trading day, three moments.

Before the open

Walk in with a plan.

Write your read and your plan, run your checklist, and see the red news with its no-entry windows. Before the open, one click gives you a morning briefing with sources.

Takeaway: overnight bias is up, but let price confirm after 10:00.

During the session

A second pair of eyes.

Paste a chart and the AI chat checks the setup against your rules. It counts your trades against your limit, notices quick re-entries, and knows your open position and P&L.

The trader’s chart: price back in a 15m gap below the London highs
Look at this setup. Price tapped into a 15m gap, I want to target London Highs. Should I long now?

09:46 ET

Checked against your strategy, from the chart:

  • Draw: the London high above is still untaken ✓
  • Location: price is back inside the 15m gap that London left ✓
  • Confirmation: not yet. The 1m hasn’t inverted inside the gap, and ES made a lower low with NQ, so no SMT ✗
  • Time & news: inside your window; next red event is 10:00 UoM Consumer Sentiment, so no new entries 09:55–10:00 ✓

Context is there, the entry confirmation isn’t. Wait for an inversion with SMT; if it hasn’t come by 09:55, wait for 10AM Open.

After the close

Learn one thing a day.

Trades sync from TopstepX into your journal. After the 5 PM ET close, one click gives you the recap: the day’s story, the setups your rules offered in hindsight, and one lesson.

For tomorrow

When the draw is still untaken and the context holds, let the target do the work instead of leaving early.

Liquidity events from the bars, in New York time. Which of them were setups is your call, by your rules. Trade context from 5-minute bars, to the nearest bar.

When it matters

A letter from you, to you.

Pause. Re-entry two minutes after a loss.

Remember what you’re building.

The freedom. The life you want. The person you promised yourself you’d become.

Is this impulsive click really worth betraying that person?

I remember who I’m trying to become
sample letter

“Tilt cost you $1,200 this month across 3 trades.”sample data

Written on a calm day. In your own words, for the moment you’ll need them.

Shown before the next trade. When the signs of tilt show up, next to what tilt has cost you.

It never blocks a trade. It makes sure you decide with a clear head.

“I was trading Asia and talking it through. It flagged tilt and the pop-up came up. That cleared any doubt I had and I decided I was done for the session.”

Prop firms

Built for the evaluation, and for what comes after.

Eval money and real money are kept apart, everywhere.

01

Know your room, every day.

Progress to target, room above the trailing loss limit, the daily limit and the consistency rule, with your firm’s rules preset and editable.

02

See what tilt really costs.

Your results on tilted trades next to clean ones, by reason: traded on a tilted emotion, broke a rule, re-entered right after a loss, beyond your daily trade limit.

03

Count the real money.

Evaluations, resets, activation fees and data against payouts, so you know whether trading is paying you.

Questions

Can it place or close trades?

No. It only reads your trades and account data. Every decision, and every click, stays yours.

Which brokers and markets does it support?

Today it connects directly to TopstepX, and works with any futures market you trade: NQ, ES, gold, crude and more. You can also import your trade history from Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Rithmic or Quantower.

Do I have to use your strategy?

No. Start from the Magnum Opus model, or bring your own: paste your document and it becomes an organised strategy page. Basic includes 1 strategy of your own, Pro includes 3.

What leaves my computer?

Only the AI messages you send, which pass through our service to the model and aren’t stored. Your journal, screenshots and stats stay local.

Do I need to be in an evaluation?

No. The Challenge tab appears only if you’re trading an eval. Funded and personal accounts get everything else.

Is it connected to my prop firm?

No. The Challenge tab has rule presets for Topstep, Apex, MyFundedFutures, Lucid and more, which you can edit. Magnum Opus is not affiliated with any prop firm. Only TopstepX connects, read-only.

Is this financial advice?

No. It doesn’t predict prices or tell you what to trade. It holds you to the rules you already have.
