Hi, I'm Wade
Founder of Trade ATS, LLC
I was introduced to algorithmic trading in 2010. Since then I have been obsessed with understanding why and how markets of all types work.
Through the years I have spent 1000's of hours trading my own capital, developing my own black box systems and personally training and mentoring thousands of traders, many of which have reached high levels of success in their own trading careers.
Through Trade ATS, our software and education company, and ATS Capital Partners, our Prop Firm; it is mine and my teams mission to bring every resource a trader needs to succeed in this business under one roof. We provide a simple, straight forward path for those with drive and discipline to reach their trading dreams and goals.
It is through this realization of our grand vision that we have created unparalleled value and make more long term successful retail traders than any other firm has before us.

FOLLOW ME HEREAbout Trade ATS
Trade ATS is a trading software development firm specializing in Forex, crypto and stock markets. Our unique software and methodologies are based on "Smart Money Concepts" and the Institutional accumulation / distribution model that was originally made popular by pioneers like Richard Wyckoff and Jesse Livermore. This type of market analysis involves understanding and tracking how the beliefs of the masses affect price movement and how the larger institutions take advantage of those beliefs for their own profit.
Our flagship software product, Action Threshold Software, is designed to help you think and trade like the large institutions who make 95% of all profits in the markets.
Through understanding "Their" system, it is our experience that a trader can use this information to consistently predict market movements and capitalize on trading opportunities not clearly seen or understood by the masses.
OUR STORY
YEAR 2012
THE BEGINNING
We open a brick and mortar facility in Southern CA, dedicated to supporting ourselves and other traders on their journey to becoming professional retail traders. We hold basics courses helping people get into the industry and start hosting live trading group sessions every morning during the week. Doors open at 5:00 AM sharp!
YEAR 2014
THE EPIPHANY
Wade writes his first algorithm designed around smart money concepts. It works exclusively for the FXCM Trading Station Platform. He calls it Smart Money Profile.
It turns out to be a game changer and is widely adopted within our local trading community and institute.
YEAR 2015
GROWTH
Word rapidly spreads about our trading room and our unique trading software. We begin to grow.
Our old office space is too small so we move. This gave us a chance to build our dream trading studio. It was a very fun place to be and taught us a lot about folks learning how to trade.
YEAR 2017
THE WAKEUP CALL
We're dealt a death blow.
FXCM is banned from doing business in the united states for fraudulent practices. All of our software is designed to run on FXCM Trading Station. It can no longer be used.
The trading room looses it's momentum and we decide to close the doors and trade on our own.
YEAR 2018
REBIRTH
Wade rewrites the original SMP algorithm on MT4 for himself and a few remaining friends from the old office to use. He takes the opportunity to make several improvements so he will never get shut down again by any dishonest broker. He renames the new version, Action Threshold Software.
Trade ATS is born!
YEAR 2019
THE EXPLOSION
Wade's content posted on youtube for fun ends up going massively viral. Turns out there is major hunger in the trading community for the truth of how markets really work.
Trade ATS begins to onboard way more people than it was ever designed to support. We quickly figure out how to scale and start helping people from all over the world learn to trade the right way.
YEAR 2022
