Blind test results

Every grade, tested on price the engine never saw.

Each one tested on the most recent 15% of its price history, kept sealed while the engine searched, graded and tuned.

304,705 systems tested on price they never saw

Grade A, the top grade, is rare: 2,235 of 304,705 systems, about 1 in 136.

Search grade: the letter of a system's search score, A is 75 or more. Held up: profit factor above 1 on the sealed window. Polaris network results, 22 Sep 2026, not your account.

After the deploy

Nebula keeps watching after the deploy.

Nebula Mission Control tracking a demo book live: the corridor it must stay inside, its drift checks, its equity, and the Pause, Close, Replace and Remove controls.
01Starter and up

Live tracking and drift alerts

Mission Control sets each live system against the range its test modelled, and tells you when one drifts. Pause, resume or close it.

Mission Control acting on one leg of a demo book: Replace this leg proves an archived reserve on recent price, and you review the proof before anything swaps.
02Starter and up

It proves a replacement first

Pick a slipping system and Nebula retests reserves from your library on recent price. If none holds up, nothing changes.

Nebula Mission Control, the swap overlay: Meridian is being replaced by Meridian II on GBPJPY H4. The replacement is validated and the open trades are closed, the new strategy is being re-baked, then it recompiles, restarts MetaTrader and the new system goes live.
03Ultimate

Ultimate can replace it for you

It swaps in a tested replacement when a system stops behaving like its test. It reacts to results, not a timer.

Telegram on an iPhone: Orion, the Nebula bot, is back on the desk. 1 system live on USDJPY, 709 genomes and 5 portfolios in the vault, the search idle, and the questions it answers.

Straight answers before you pay

Not a signal service.

You choose the market, the rules and the limits. Nebula builds and tests what you ask for. It sends no signals.

No promised results.

Test results are simulated. Live trading can do worse than any test.

It cannot make a weak edge strong.

A run can end with nothing worth deploying.

Your computer has to stay on.

Your EAs run inside MetaTrader, so it must be running for them to trade. A VPS keeps it running when your computer is off.

Buying an EA or building one.

A bought EA comes with someone else's rules and someone else's test. Nebula shows you the rules and how yours was tested. Want a starting point? The Systems Library has 76 ready made systems.

MT4 or MT5.

Both on paid plans. Free deploys to MT5. If a system cannot run faithfully on MT4, Nebula refuses the MT4 deploy.

If you cancel.

You keep access to the end of the period you paid for. Then you drop to the highest lifetime plan you own, or to Free. Your vault stays yours, and EAs already in MetaTrader keep running.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need to code?

No. You choose the market, the rules and the risk. Nebula writes the EA.

What does Free include?

The same search and tests as paid plans, one pair per run. Free includes one real deploy to MT5, one system, once.

How does the forward check work?

Each system you keep is retested on price that arrived after it was built. It ends as Profited, Lost, Breached, Too early or No trades, and Nebula scores how often its grades called it. It is simulated on your own data, not live trading.

Does it work on Mac, and with MT4?

Nebula runs on Windows and Mac. On Windows, paid plans deploy to MT4 and MT5 and Free deploys to MT5. On a Mac, Nebula connects to MT5 only.

What is the cooling off?

14 days, and it ends when you download the installer or activate a key. After that there are no refunds. See the refund policy.

Is my data shared?

Anonymised strategy research data goes to a shared research pool by default, and you can switch it off. Performance results are shared only with your consent.

How do I activate a key?

Click NebKey in the bottom bar of Nebula, choose Nebula licence and paste your code. You can also use Settings, Licence & System, Redeem NebKey. Find your code at orionrfx.com/activate.
