Segnals Architecture Overview

Segnals is an institutional-grade algorithmic trading software platform. It provides high-frequency telemetry, multi-timeframe signal validation, automated position sizing, and broker execution bridges across Crypto (Bybit, Binance, Phemex) and Forex/CFDs (MetaTrader 5).

The Non-Custodial Protocol

Security in automated trading begins with refusing custody. Segnals operates under a strict zero-custody mandate:

No Deposit Contracts

Users never deposit capital to Segnals. Your trading balance remains in your own segregated broker or exchange wallet at all times.

Withdrawal-Restricted APIs

Segnals enforces that connected exchange API keys have withdrawal permissions disabled. The engine only executes order placing, cancelling, and telemetry reads.

MetaTrader 5 (MT5) Wine Bridge

Traditional Forex bot platforms require users to install clunky local Windows VPS machines. Segnals replaces this with isolated, server-side Linux containers running custom-built Wine servers with zero-copy socket bridges directly into broker endpoints.

# Sample MT5 Order Execution Pipeline
Signal Event → Volatility Gate → Loss-Lock Check → Socket Bridge → MT5 Broker (8ms avg fill)

Autonomous Risk Guard & Loss Lock

Every active bot is monitored in real-time by the Segnals Risk Guard daemon. It mathematically computes position drawdowns and fires protective measures:

  • ATR Trailing Stop: Dynamically adjusts stop-loss thresholds based on average true range to lock in accrued unrealized profit.
  • Loss Lock Enforcer: If cumulative portfolio drawdown breaches user-configured thresholds, new order entries are immediately frozen across all connected pairs.
  • Spread & Wick Filters: Prevents order execution during severe broker liquidity gaps or abnormal slippage events.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

Segnals is the first trading platform offering an official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. You can control, query, and adjust your algorithmic bots directly through Claude Desktop, Cursor, or your autonomous AI agent workflows.

// Claude Desktop Configuration (claude_desktop_config.json)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "segnals": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@segnals/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SEGNALS_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

REST API Quickstart

Programmatic access is available for institutional and private quant developers. Authentication uses Bearer tokens.

# Query active bot status and telemetry
curl -X GET "https://segnals.com/api/bots/telemetry" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
