About FTA Labs
FTA Labs helps futures traders turn ideas into tested systems through custom NinjaScript development, backtesting, prop firm simulation and automation.
Built on trading, technology and financial experience.
FTA Labs was founded by Francois de la Rouviere, a software engineer with nearly two decades of development experience and years of experience building, testing and trading futures systems.
He is joined by Co-Founder Eugene de la Rouviere, an experienced financial adviser with a background in investment management and running his own financial investment business in South Africa.
Eugene brings a wealth of financial-market experience to FTA Labs, contributing to strategy development with a particular focus on risk management, portfolio construction, diversification and the allocation of capital across trading systems.
Together, the goal is simple: combine technology, trading experience and financial insight to help traders objectively test their ideas before risking time, money or prop firm evaluations.

No hype.
FTA Labs does not sell signals, promises or guaranteed profits. The focus is objective testing.
Just data.
Every project is designed to answer one question: what does the strategy actually do historically?
For every trader.
You do not need coding experience. Bring the idea, and FTA Labs handles the engineering.
Built to grow.
Promising strategies can be refined, tested against prop firm rules and eventually automated.
