Brings the rigour of an institutional desk to a trading history: return, risk, consistency and statistical robustness. It computes only what the data can support and, when they fall short, says so.
Two traders finish the year with the same return. Judged on the balance alone they seem identical, but they aren't.
ST EDGE puts into numbers what the balance doesn't show: how much risk was run, how consistent the results were and how much commissions cost.
Before a metric appears in a report, it goes through the same test: can it be calculated, and do the data support it? If not, n/a appears in place of the number, with the reason. The verdict concerns the observed performance, by defined criteria, and doesn't settle whether a strategy is valid in absolute terms.
Everything starts from the same calculation on the days: the Assessment judges a profile, the Composer uses the same verdict to choose portfolios and the reports put it in writing.
A 0 to 100 score on fifteen metrics in four groups, with its precision band and a percentile position on the scale for the operator type.
It tries the combinations of the systems, judges each one as a portfolio and proposes the best by three criteria, checked on the years after the choice.
Ten institutional-style documents, configurable in every part, for a partner, an allocator or a prop firm. Every page states which data it was generated from.
The verdict is computed by a rule-based engine. The optional AI Analyst comes after it: it comments on numbers already calculated and never enters the score.
The Assessment comes from a rule-based engine with no artificial intelligence. With the same data, the same version and the same settings, the report always comes out the same. The reproducibility seal on the cover states this, and if the data fingerprint is turned on the document also lists the days it was built from and the version that produced it.
A discursive commentary on numbers already calculated, written by a language model of the user's choice with the user's own API key. It doesn't change the calculations, doesn't enter the score and isn't a certification. A badge marks it, and the text can change from one run to the next: for a reproducible comparison, the Assessment is the reference.
These are real documents, generated by ST EDGE from the sample profiles: every metric sits next to its rating and band, and the appendix carries the formulas.

Any platform, broker, account, bank or exchange works, as long as it exports the data to a text file. There's no broker-specific code, so there's never a wait for a particular broker to be supported.
If the data comes out as a text table (CSV, TXT, or cells pasted from a spreadsheet), ST EDGE can read it. It detects the separator (tab, `;`, `,`, `|`), the encoding and the decimal and date formats by itself. The only required field is the date; everything else is optional.
net = gross + swap − commissions − fees − taxes: if the file has the other figures, the missing one is calculated rather than estimated. If a value isn't there, the field is left empty instead of being filled with a zero. Before measuring anything, ST EDGE checks that each day's figures add up, flags the ones that need fixing and shows the before and after of every repair.
The starting point can be days, the minimum the Assessment needs, trades, or transactions, which ST EDGE rebuilds into trades with FIFO logic and groups into days. Trades open up the Per-trade Analysis, by instrument, time of day and duration. The score is always calculated on the days: more detail adds analysis and leaves the score unchanged.
No broker APIs, no paid connectors, no updates to chase when a platform changes its export layout. A new format needs its column mapping set once; for MetaTrader 4 and 5, cTrader, Interactive Brokers and TradingView it comes ready. If the file changes later, the mapping is simply updated: ST EDGE remembers it.
The archive is a file on the user's computer. It can be exported at any time, restored in moments and kept anywhere.
Changing broker tomorrow? The history stays where it is. ST EDGE itself can be left at any time too, because the files it exports use the same headers and format it reads, so there's no lock-in.
A desktop application written in Python that works locally. For now the public beta is available for Windows 64-bit only.
A profile can be set up for each account, broker or system, whether live, demo or under test, each with its own history, capital and strategy. The same engine measures them all on consistent terms and keeps them apart until the user decides to combine them into a portfolio.
Anyone who wants to understand how they got the result, not just how much.
Anyone who must keep risk and daily drawdowns under control and present their numbers clearly. The prop firm's intraday limits remain a separate measure.
Anyone comparing backtests, simulations and live trading with the same metrics, and building portfolios of systems.
Managers, advisers and anyone who reports to an investor, a partner or an allocator and wants to do it in a clear, checkable way.
A document that lists only strengths can't be judged fairly. So here is what ST EDGE is not.
ST EDGE comes from the desk of someone who trades his own capital every day, not from a lab.
100% own capital and accounts.
In 2002 he created ScalpTool, a professional trading platform built on his own experience as a scalper. The project was later carried forward through E-Conn and EuSpeed, companies where he held management and ownership roles. Over time ScalpTool has been integrated into several professional trading ecosystems in Italy and the United States, and it is still the tool he trades with every day.
With Trading Library he published Tecniche di Scalping (2001) and Scalping – Da trader online a professionista dei mercati (2003). In 2002 he was featured in the publication Top Trader d'Italia.
Registration takes just an email inside the app, no card needed. The beta is free until 31 March 2027 with every feature open, and a daily summary is enough to get started. The app opens on the demonstration profile, the same one shown in the manual's screenshots: test data, read-only, to see screens and reports at once before loading one's own.
The software is still evolving: features, interface and reports may change in later versions.
Registration implies acceptance of the Terms of Service and acknowledgement of the Privacy Policy.
