KPL Bot: System Specifications
Automated execution engine for proprietary Key Price Levels.
System Requirements
Logic Architecture
KPL Bot qualifies trades around configured upper and lower key prices. The daily KPL map is fixed from the regular-session opening print. Standard ES/NQ outer levels use full-session travel; inner levels use after-hours travel. These reference prices do not predict direction. Model context is separate from the level calculation.
A rejection can frame a mean-reversion idea. Acceptance through a level can frame continuation. The bot applies the configured setup rules and manages configured stops, targets and exits. See the KPL learning hub for the daily map and its limits.
Signal Filtration
Review the installed version and template with setup support. Confirm which time, event, price-action and risk settings are enabled. Then observe qualified entries, rejected setups and stop behavior in SIM. More filters do not automatically improve a strategy.
Risk Controls
Review the configured risk controls before enabling the strategy. These settings do not grant prop-firm permission or guarantee a maximum realized loss:
- Daily Risk Limit: Verify the configured limit and open-position handling when it triggers.
- Daily Profit Settings: Check the configured behavior after a daily profit threshold. Continue monitoring any open position.
- Event Settings: Verify the installed version, event schedule and enabled settings before a major release.
Provider permission comes before setup.
Reviewed October 2, 2026. Apex's User Agreement prohibits automated strategy orders. TopstepX API access is a separate simulated-account integration, not support for YMI NinjaScript bots. Orders must originate on your personal device; VPS, VPN and remote order servers are prohibited. Private servers may support research or read-only work that cannot reach order flow. See the account-rule comparison before considering a provider.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What tier includes the KPL Bot?
KPL Bot is included only with Pro Trader at $795 per month, with no free trial. Intro includes daily ES/NQ KPLs for manual planning. Pro adds automation and 11-market KPL coverage.
Does the KPL Bot require me to be at my computer?
The KPL Bot can run on NinjaTrader 8 and may be hosted on a VPS only where the broker and specific account permit it, but it still requires setup checks, monitoring, alerts, SIM validation, and risk controls before live use.
Is the KPL Bot compatible with prop firms like Apex and Tradeify?
Do not assume compatibility. Apex prohibits automated strategy orders under its current agreement. TopstepX uses a separate API; permission there does not establish a connection for KPL Bot. TopstepX order flow must originate on your personal device, not a VPS, VPN or remote server. Confirm provider permission and a supported NinjaTrader desktop connection before considering evaluation use.
What markets does the KPL Bot trade?
The KPL Bot supports ES, NQ, YM, RTY, CL (crude oil), GC (gold), and 5 additional futures markets. ES and NQ are the primary markets with the most developed template library.
