What we’re about
Meetup group of GTA (Greater Toronto Area) residents who share a passion for FOREX trading.
In the Forex market, institutional investors and major market participants are the true drivers of price movement. These are not random retail traders — they operate with highly sophisticated, proprietary strategies that are closely guarded as business secrets.
But even the largest institutions leave identifiable footprints in the market. By spotting and interpreting these “BIGfootprints,” you can align with institutional flows instead of trading against them.
Over years of collaboration with our in-house Chartered Market Technician (CMT), we have developed ALGOMETATRENDS — a proprietary system that detects these institutional footprints in real time. This system generates clear, actionable trade signals along with built-in risk management through predefined stop-loss levels. The result? A structured, rules-based approach to trend identification in Forex and beyond.
Meetup is dedicated to discussing trading strategies, analyzing market trends, and sharing knowledge with like-minded individuals. Whether you're new to FOREX trading or a seasoned investor, this group is a place to connect with others, exchange ideas, and potentially collaborate on successful trading ventures.
What We Trade
While we track global markets, our primary focus is Forex pairs with strong liquidity and consistent volatility. This includes:
Major pairs: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF
Commodity pairs: AUD/USD, NZD/USD, USD/CAD
Crosses & exotics when volatility meets our criteria
Our Approach
BIGfootprints Method – Identify where the largest market participants are active.
Volatility-Optimized Trading – Focus on setups with meaningful profit potential.
Pure Price Action – No fundamentals; charts tell the story.
MACD Divergence – A proven leading indicator when combined with institutional footprints.
Noise Reduction – Optimized, non-time-based charts for clearer trends.
We believe that the clarity and discipline of a rules-based system is the key to surviving in Forex — where intraday swings can be brutal, and emotional trading leads to costly mistakes.
📈 What We Plan:
Interactive Workshops: Our hands-on sessions cover everything from ALGO charts, Signals with clear Entry, Exit with stop loss, all generated by tested ALGO setups.
Market Sessions: Dive into live markets, understanding trends, and making informed decisions.
Peer Learning: Exchange ideas, strategies, and experiences with fellow members who are on the same journey.
