A foundation you can build on.

CORE is the diversified, robust system at the base of TradeSimplr — tested across years of real markets and built to be trusted over the long term. It’s the system James runs as his own foundation: one you can keep feeding over time, because diversification is what makes it resilient.

Why CORE exists

You don’t have to become a trader.

Most people who want to benefit from the markets don’t have the time, the training or the temperament to trade well by hand — and most who try, lose. CORE removes the need to. It puts a tested, disciplined method to work for you, so the discipline doesn’t depend on you being at your screen, calm and right.

How it works

Robust by design.

Where EDGE concentrates on a single market, CORE spreads across six — built to be robust and reliable across very different market conditions. It works perfectly on its own, and it’s the base the others build on.

It waits for real trends

Most of the time, the right move is to do nothing. CORE acts only when a genuine, lasting trend develops — and stays patient in between.

It spreads across six markets

Gold and five major currency pairs, so no single market decides your result and a quiet stretch in one can be offset by another.

It caps every loss

A protective stop is attached the moment a trade opens — set in advance, so losses stay small while winners are left to run.

Under the hood

  • Trend-following system
  • SuperTrend + ADX confirmation
  • Six major markets
  • H4 timeframe
  • Hard stop on every trade
  • Built to capture sustained trends, not frequent trades

Who it’s for

Built for the long game.

CORE suits people who want disciplined market exposure without watching charts — who can judge progress over months and years rather than days, and who’d rather a steady base than a thrill. If that’s you, this is the place to start.

Why you can trust it

Built to be broken first.

We tested CORE against real historical market data across six years and many different market conditions — strong periods and weak, including a losing two-year stretch we kept in rather than hide. Weaker versions were rejected; only what held up was released.

A system isn’t approved because it produced a good backtest. Each is assessed against a broader framework — behaviour, risk control, consistency, drawdowns and long-term viability — across many market conditions. Only systems that pass become products. CORE, EDGE and ACCELERATOR are all systems James runs himself.

What’s possible

What it could become over time.

No one can forecast markets. But our testing showed how CORE behaved across difficult, average and strong conditions — here it is over fifteen years, on the standard assumptions below.

The illustrations below assume an initial balance of $5,000 and a regular contribution of $200 per month. Contributions aren’t required — they’re included because many people choose to add capital over time rather than rely on trading returns alone. The examples are designed to show how trading results and ongoing contributions can work together over longer periods.

Difficult $35,100 ~ −2% / yr · after 15 years
Average $57,100 ~ +4% / yr · after 15 years
Favourable $74,100 ~ +7% / yr · after 15 years

These illustrations relate to CORE on its own. CORE forms the foundation of the ecosystem. EDGE adds a dedicated gold component, while ACCELERATOR was built for higher-growth tactical deployments. Historically, in favourable periods, EDGE has produced return profiles 4–8% above CORE, while ACCELERATOR has produced return profiles 8–16% above CORE — although both involve greater volatility and deeper drawdowns. Many owners ultimately combine all three systems rather than rely on one alone. See the complete ecosystem →

The figures are illustrative, drawn from past testing — not a forecast or guarantee. Difficult years are part of any real path, and on a difficult path the balance can sit below what you contributed. Long-term outcomes are driven as much by what you keep adding and reinvesting as by performance itself.
