About Ross Burland

The person teaching you has done it for real
(25+ years professional + ex institutional trader)

Ross did not learn to trade by watching YouTube. He spent over 20 years on City of London trading floors before teaching anyone else how to do it.

20 years at the institutions. Now teaching the frameworks to retail traders.

Ross started his career in the City of London in 2001. Over the following two decades he held roles in corporate sales, institutional spot FX market-making, corporate treasury management, and corporate FX desk management at some of the UK's leading financial institutions.

He then served as a Senior Technical Analyst at FXStreet, where his daily market commentary was read by professional traders around the world. He contributed analysis to Bloomberg and CNBC. He managed the corporate FX desk at Rational FX.

The analytical frameworks, risk disciplines, and market structure thinking inside Trade Algorithm Elite are a direct translation of everything he learned and applied during those two decades.

"I spent 20 years learning how institutions actually position in these markets. The patterns they look for, the risk frameworks they apply, the discipline they execute with. Retail traders deserve access to that same thinking. That is what I have built here."

Elite includes TradingView indicators (TradeAlgo Pro and FundedAlgo Pro), strategy backtesting tools, strategy templates, real-time alerts, the full automation system for MT4 and MT5, risk management controls, weekly live sessions with Ross, 1:1 coaching access, community access, and your personal trading dashboard.

Our automation connects your TradingView strategies to MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5 accounts via webhooks, using your own configurable risk settings. More platforms are being added.

Yes. US clients can use the automation exactly the same way as everyone else, with no restrictions on access or functionality.

Elite is used by traders at all levels. Beginners use it to learn a structured, rule-based approach to the markets. More experienced traders use it to sharpen their edge and automate strategies they already understand. The tutorial academy starts from first principles on every topic.

Not required, but recommended. A TradingView Pro or Pro+ subscription gives you more alerts, more chart layouts, and better backtesting capabilities. The free TradingView plan will work for getting started.

If you enable the automation, there is a third-party API connection cost of approximately $15 to $30 per month depending on usage. This is separate from your Elite membership fee and covers the webhook infrastructure that routes your signals to MetaTrader.

Your TradingView indicators generate signals based on your configured strategy rules. When a signal fires, a webhook alert is sent automatically to our system, which checks your risk settings and places the trade on your connected MT4 or MT5 account. Your PC does not need to be on. Everything runs server-side.

All members get access to live chat support, the private community channel, and the full tutorial academy. Premium members also get access to weekly live sessions with Ross. Elite members get all of the above plus direct 1:1 coaching access with Ross and priority support.

We do not offer a money-back period on our plans. However, you can try our technology completely free before committing. Claim your free Trade Algorithm tools at tradealgorithm.co.uk/claim-tools to access our core indicators on your own charts and get a genuine feel for the platform.

No. Trading always involves risk and no system wins every trade. Trade Algorithm gives you structured tools, disciplined risk management, and a consistent framework. Results depend on market conditions, your individual setup, and how you apply the system. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
