Our mission

Give every trader a clear view of themselves — in real time.

The trading industry is full of tools that help you analyze the market. Almost none of them help you analyze yourself.

Meridian was built to fill that gap. Not with a journal you fill in after the session. Not with a generic mood tracker. But with a real-time behavioral index that runs natively inside NinjaTrader 8 and shows you, in numbers, how behavioral pressure is building from your session activity — before the next trade.

We believe that most traders already have what it takes. A solid strategy. A plan. Discipline — most of the time. What they lack is a mirror. Something that shows them when the plan is quietly slipping, before it becomes a blown session.

That is what Meridian is.

Why Meridian exists

I spent years looking for a better strategy.
I had it the whole time.

I've been a full-time trader for over five years — starting in equities, moving to prop firm futures, and now trading independently. In that time, I've blown up more accounts than I care to admit.

It was never the strategy. I knew exactly what to do. The problem was that in the middle of a losing streak — three red trades in a row, already past my session limit, telling myself "just one more" — I couldn't see what was happening to me. I was tilted. My emotions had taken over. And no strategy survives that.

After years of that same pattern — the self-doubt, the frustration, the questions about why I couldn't just stick to the plan — I started building what I wished had existed: a tool that tells you, in real time, where you stand psychologically. Not a journal you fill in after the damage is done. Something that works during the session.

Since building Meridian, I've passed multiple prop firm evaluations, collected consistent payouts, and now trade independently full-time. Not because I found a better strategy. Because I finally stopped being my own worst enemy.

— Gary Caffrey, Founder of Meridian

What we're building

Starting with NinjaTrader 8. More platforms coming.

Meridian is currently built for NinjaTrader 8, the platform where most serious retail futures traders operate. It runs as a native add-on — fully local, no cloud, no accounts, no data leaving your machine.

Future versions will expand to additional platforms and trading environments. The goal is the same regardless of platform: give traders a precise, real-time view of behavioral stability signals from their session, so they can make a calmer decision about whether to keep trading.

PSI is a behavioral proxy index derived from your trading activity inside NinjaTrader. It does not measure physiology (for example heart rate or stress hormones), and it is not validated as a predictor of trading profits or losses. Meridian is designed to improve self-awareness and discipline during a session; outcomes still depend on many factors beyond psychology. Results may vary. Trading involves substantial risk of loss.
