Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about how Telonics works, what it connects to, and what it can and can't do. If your question isn't here, email info@telonicstrading.com.
What is Telonics?
A fully-automated portfolio of 8 systematic edges across 5 futures markets (NQ, GC, YM, ES, CL). It places entries, management, and exits on your own broker or prop-firm account through TradersPost, you don't follow signals or place manual orders.
Who is it for?
Traders who want a rules-based, hands-off system, especially on prop / funded accounts, where emotional mistakes (revenge trading, oversizing, chasing) cause most failures. Automation removes those mistakes.
Which brokers or prop firms are supported?
Any broker or prop firm that connects through TradersPost and permits automated, third-party-signal trading. Some prop firms restrict or prohibit automation, please confirm your firm allows it before subscribing. You are responsible for complying with your firm's rules.
Do you ever hold my money or my broker login?
No. You connect your own account through TradersPost; we never take custody of your funds and never hold your broker credentials. You keep full control and can pause or stop at any time.
Are the published stats live or backtested?
The performance figures on the site are
backtested / hypothetical, a simulation over 2019–2026, with the 2025–2026 period walk-forward out-of-sample. We also run the exact portfolio live on our own prop-firm accounts. Backtested and simulated results have inherent limitations and do not represent actual trading;
past performance does not predict future results. See our
Risk Disclosure.
How is position size decided?
You set a risk % per trade, and the system sizes every edge to your account balance automatically. A larger account trades more contracts, a smaller one fewer, sized to the risk you choose.
Can I pause or stop it?
Yes, any time, per account, from your dashboard. Pausing stops new entries; any open trade still exits normally on its own rules.
What happens if the VPS, internet, or algorithm goes down?
The system runs an independent watchdog and a hard daily force-flat so positions don't run unattended overnight. That said, automated trading depends on technology and third-party connectivity and
can fail — outages, latency, rejected or partial orders, and slippage can all affect results. You are responsible for monitoring your account. See our
Risk Disclosure.
Will it pass my prop-firm evaluation?
Automation removes the behavioral mistakes that fail most evaluations, but it does not guarantee you pass or stay funded. Prop-firm rules — trailing and daily drawdown, consistency, news restrictions — still apply and can be breached by market conditions, slippage, or a technical failure. Results vary.
What does it cost?
One subscription for the complete portfolio, billed quarterly, cancel anytime. We go over exact pricing and current launch rates on your consultation call.
Book a consultation and we'll walk you through it.
How do I get started?
Book a consultation. We'll walk you through it and get you set up one-on-one, connecting your account and configuring TradersPost together.
Is this financial advice?
No. Telonics provides trading software and signals only. It is not a registered Commodity Trading Advisor, broker, or investment adviser, and nothing here is personalized advice. Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.
