4FT Invest: seriousness and method in automated trading

Technology, discipline and transparency: 4FT Invest brings professional-grade tools to automated trading for retail investors.

4FT Invest: bringing seriousness back to automated trading
The world of automated trading is often filled with unrealistic promises and very few truly reliable tools. At 4FT Invest, our mission is to reverse this trend by bringing method, transparency and technical solidity to a sector that is far too often dominated by improvisation.

Founded on July 30, 2024 as an Italian-British fintech company, 4FT Invest was created from the experience of Giuseppe Leone, CEO and founder, and Rosario Galletti, a Risk Management expert with over fifteen years in banking and a background in software development. Since 2017, the two co-founders have been developing platforms and algorithms tested internally with their own capital, laying the foundation for the rigorous approach that defines the entire 4FT ecosystem today.

Professional technology made accessible to retail investors

The goal is clear: to provide retail investors with tools that were previously available only to major financial institutions. The 4FT Invest platform brings together in a single environment:

• highly structured automated trading strategies
• advanced macroeconomic analysis tools
• professional algorithm-building features
• bespoke portfolio management solutions

“We operate with the same methodology used by professional investment funds,” says Leone, “while offering full transparency and total control to the user.”

The two core components of the 4FT Invest platform

1. ForeMarket: macro analysis and asset allocation

ForeMarket is the suite dedicated to wealth management and building portfolios aligned with each investor’s profile.

Macrometrics: understanding the economic cycle in real time

At the heart of the system is Macrometrics, a macroeconomic engine that:

• automatically downloads 26 key indicators (GDP, inflation, interest rates, output gap, etc.) via FRED – Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis APIs
• processes the data through a proprietary model
• identifies the current phase of the economic cycle
• guides the construction of portfolios aligned with each user’s time horizon and risk level

These are the very same data used by major central banks. The aim is to bring institutional-grade analysis directly to retail investors.

MatchingPattern: multi-timeframe pattern analysis with AI

ForeMarket also includes MatchingPattern, a tool that analyzes candlestick patterns across multiple timeframes and provides:

• AI-generated projections
• automated textual commentary
• context analysis (trend, volatility)
• statistical robustness indicators
• fast backtesting to validate insights

2. Advanced algorithmic trading on MetaTrader 4 and 5

The automated trading section offers pre-configured strategies (Expert Advisors) developed in-house and continuously maintained by the 4FT team.

Structured and supervised strategies

Each algorithm:

• is tested and validated using real capital
• follows rigorously defined entry, management and exit rules, continuously optimized
• uses advanced money-management techniques
• eliminates manual intraday intervention and reduces the stress of discretionary trading

This is not “generic AI”; it is professional algorithmic trading based on expert-developed models.

Build your own strategy—no coding required

For users with trading knowledge but no programming skills, the platform includes a block-based visual tool that allows the creation of custom strategies. The MetaTrader compiler automatically generates the executable file ready for use.

Transparency, real results and an ethical fee model

Credibility is central to our identity. Fees on algorithmic strategies are applied only if the client achieves positive results.

In case of negative performance, 4FT Invest applies a loss-recovery principle, aligned with ESMA recommendations.
This model creates a full alignment of interests between the company and the investor.

Strategic partnerships for global operations

Our service expansion is supported by selected technical partnerships:

• Alpaca Markets (USA): enables trading of stocks, ETFs, bonds and other U.S. assets directly from the 4FT Invest platform.
• Eightcap: partner for operations on MetaTrader.

The platform also offers free registration, access to demo accounts, training content and monthly subscriptions for advanced services.

An ecosystem built to democratize finance

4FT Invest does not seek to replace the investor, but to provide powerful and reliable tools to operate with method.
Technology, expertise and transparency form the foundation of our commitment to bringing seriousness back to a sector that needs it more than ever.
