Professional Trading Research Tools for Serious System Developers
George Pruitt’s software suite was built for traders and developers who want to go beyond simple backtests and dig deeper into portfolio construction, parameter behavior, and pattern-based market analysis. Each product tackles a different part of the research process, and together they form a powerful toolkit for developing, evaluating, and stress-testing trading ideas.
Here is a quick snapshot of my most popular tools:

TS-PortfolioMerge is designed to help you answer one of the most important questions in system development: how do multiple strategies behave when combined into a single portfolio?
TS-ParamScape3D Suite was created to help traders visualize optimization results in a way that traditional tables and reports simply cannot.
PatternSmasherTurbo is a research tool for traders who want to explore, test, and expand pattern-based ideas without getting trapped in an overwhelming brute-force search.
Meet STACKER — an ambitious multi-layer algorithm from the 2000s that once looked like it had a future. But time, changing market behavior, and deeper analysis have raised the big question:
Can it be reanimated?
In this module, George digs into the original logic, examines how the system behaved before and after release, and uses modern analysis tools to determine whether the algorithm still has technical merit — or whether it should remain buried.
This is not a system-development exercise. It is a forensic investigation into what made the algorithm work, what caused it to deteriorate, and whether some of its parts still contain life.
TS-PortfolioMerge
TS-PortfolioMerge is designed to help you answer one of the most important questions in system development: how do multiple strategies behave when combined into a single portfolio?
Rather than evaluating systems one at a time, TS-PortfolioMerge allows you to merge TradeStation and MultiCharts strategy results into a unified portfolio equity curve. This gives you a much clearer picture of how systems interact, how drawdowns combine, and whether diversification is actually working in your favor.
The software provides comprehensive portfolio analysis, including combined equity and drawdown evaluation, so you can study the true behavior of a basket of systems instead of relying on isolated strategy reports. A built-in Report Viewer makes it easy to examine results across multiple screens of analysis and save the report as a PDF for later review. Monte Carlo analysis is also included, giving you another layer of insight into the variability and robustness of your portfolio performance.
If you are serious about selecting the best collection of systems instead of simply chasing the best standalone backtest, TS-PortfolioMerge gives you the tools to make far more informed decisions.
TS-ParamScape3D Suite
TS-ParamScape3D Suite was created to help traders visualize optimization results in a way that traditional tables and reports simply cannot.
When you optimize a trading system, the raw output often contains thousands of parameter combinations. Hidden inside that mass of numbers are clues about stability, fragility, plateaus, spikes, and misleading peaks. TS-ParamScape3D Suite transforms those optimization results into visual landscapes that let you see the shape of your parameter space.
Instead of staring at rows and columns of data, you can explore 3D surfaces, volumetric plots, scatter-style displays, and other visual tools that make it easier to identify robust regions and avoid parameter combinations that look impressive but are actually unstable.
The suite is especially useful for distinguishing between a narrow peak and a broad plateau, helping you focus on parameter zones that are more likely to survive real-world trading. It is not just about making attractive charts. It is about revealing structure inside optimization data so you can better understand the strengths and weaknesses of your trading algorithms.
PatternSmasherTurbo
PatternSmasherTurbo is a research tool for traders who want to explore, test, and expand pattern-based ideas without getting trapped in an overwhelming brute-force search.
At its core, PatternSmasherTurbo helps you investigate binary and ternary market patterns and determine whether a pattern contains a real technical edge. It is ideal for traders who are curious about candlestick-style logic, bar-to-bar relationships, and pattern structures that may hold predictive value.
The Turbo concept dramatically reduces the size of the search space by using a smarter ternary framework. Instead of forcing you to test every rigid pattern and mask combination in the old brute-force manner, PatternSmasherTurbo lets you preserve the core structure of a pattern while intelligently exploring which parts matter, which parts can be ignored, and which filters may improve performance.
This makes the research process faster, more focused, and far more practical. It is especially useful for traders who want to perform a post-mortem on an old pattern, test whether a classic setup still has value, or discover whether a pattern’s edge comes from the entire structure or only from a few important components.
ORBO Day Trade Framework
The Open Range Breakout has been used for decades across many different markets, not just the stock indices. While the classic approach lost some of its edge as markets moved from open outcry to fully electronic trading, breakouts still matter wherever volatility exists. The ORBO Day Trade Framework was built to help traders research, test, and customize those breakout ideas in a structured and powerful way.
This module delivers a highly flexible ORBO research framework that allows you to explore millions of possible input combinations. More importantly, it shows you how to build and program a tool capable of doing that kind of deep analysis yourself. Rather than studying a fixed strategy, you are learning how to work with a complete day trading framework that can be adapted to many different ideas and market conditions.
Inside the module, you will find more than two hours of video instruction, a detailed 40-page manual, and two fully programmable strategies that can be optimized and customized in countless ways. You can test ideas such as buying after two down closes, buying on Mondays and selling short on Fridays, trading only after an inside day or narrow range setup, and analyzing 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25-minute breakouts made famous by Jake Bernstein.
The framework also lets you ask bigger “what-if” questions. Does the Crabel Stretch still apply? Is volatility a useful way to define the breakout? Should you use a fixed dollar stop, a market-derived stop, a profit target, or break-even logic? What happens if you buy the breakout and reverse at the other side when the trade fails? These variations are already programmed for you, making the framework both practical and educational.
The module also shows how to optimize by day of week, control the number of long and short trades taken during the day, and even apply a mini Pattern Smasher concept to study prior-day closing relationships. To help you choose robust settings, the package includes a Python surface-plot visualization tool and executable so you can apply Robert Pardo’s Prioritized Step Search to 2×2 optimizations.
As an added bonus, the module includes George’s Easing into EasyLanguage Day Trade Edition along with its related tools and videos, making this a strong resource for traders who want both a practical framework and a deeper understanding of day-trading research.
