Terms
The agreement between you and C.E. Market Solutions LLC for use of this service. Two documents: the terms of service cover using the site, the terms of sale cover buying a backtest. Both apply.
Terms of service
Version 2026-09-11. These terms are versioned by date and never edited in place; a change publishes a new version and leaves the previous one readable.
These terms cover your use of CEMarketSolutions.com, operated by C.E. Market Solutions LLC (“we”, “us”). Buying a backtest is covered separately by our terms of sale, which apply to every order. Using this site means you accept both.
What this service is
You give us a set of trading rules. We run those rules against historical futures data and give you back a report: every trade the rules produced, the figures that describe them, and a written statement of what the run assumed.
That is the whole service, and the boundary matters:
We report what your rules did on past data. We do not tell you whether to trade them, whether to put money behind them, or what to do next. We do not attach a score, a label, or an opinion to your strategy, and we do not compare it to anyone else's. We do not tailor anything to your account, your positions, or your circumstances — the same inputs produce the same kind of output for everyone.
Historical results are not a forecast. Read our risk disclosure, which is part of these terms.
Your account
You need an account to place an order. Give us accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for what happens under your account and for keeping your sign-in details to yourself. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has access.
One account per person. Do not share one, and do not create one for anyone else.
What you may and may not do
Your report is yours to use for your own purposes, including inside your own business.
Do not resell, republish or redistribute our reports as a product or service of your own. Do not present our figures as though they came from somewhere else, or strip the assumptions and limitations off a report before showing it to someone. Those assumptions are what make the figures meaningful, and a figure without them misleads whoever reads it.
Do not submit rules you do not have the right to submit. Do not scrape the site, probe it, or try to reach another customer's orders or reports.
Who owns what
Your rules stay yours. Submitting them gives us permission to run them and produce your report, and nothing more. We treat them as confidential — see our privacy policy.
The site stays ours — the software, the report format, the wording, the design.
Your report is yours once you have paid for it, subject to the restrictions above.
What we cannot promise
THE SERVICE AND EVERY REPORT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE HISTORICAL DATA IS COMPLETE OR ERROR-FREE, THAT A REPORT IS FREE OF ERROR, OR THAT THE SITE WILL BE AVAILABLE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. A BACKTEST IS A SIMULATION. IT CANNOT REPRODUCE REAL EXECUTION, REAL LIQUIDITY, OR REAL MARKET CONDITIONS, AND NOTHING IN A REPORT IS A STATEMENT ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE.
Limits on what we owe you
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR TRADING LOSSES, OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THIS SERVICE OR ANY REPORT — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN TOLD SUCH DAMAGES ARE POSSIBLE.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO AN ORDER IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THAT ORDER.
You decide what to do with a report. Any trading you do is your own decision and at your own risk.
If you break these terms
We can suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, that abuses the service, or that puts other customers at risk. Payments already made are covered by the terms of sale.
You can stop using the service at any time and ask us to close your account — our privacy policy says how.
Changes
These terms are versioned by date and are never edited in place. When they change we publish a new version and leave the previous one readable. Continuing to use the site after a change means the new version applies to you. The terms of sale that apply to an order are the ones in force when you paid, and those do not change afterwards.
Governing law
Texas law governs these terms, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute goes to the state or federal courts located in Bexar County, Texas, and you and we both agree to those courts.

Terms of sale
Version 2026-10-27. The version in force when you paid is recorded against your order and is the one that governs it.
What a version is
You describe a strategy and we run it on historical CME futures data. Each run is a version of that strategy. Every version is one version, whatever settings it contains. Changing the bias rule or the entry type starts a new strategy.
Paying for versions
Every version is paid, including version 1 of a strategy: $19 for a single version, or one version from a plan. Nothing is charged until you confirm.
A single version costs $19 and is bought one at a time. A version you buy never expires. Standard is $49 a month for 3 versions a month, no active-strategy limit and your full version history. Premium is $79 a month for 6versions a month, unlimited active strategies and priority.
Versions that come with a plan do not roll over. Plan versions you have not used when a billing period ends expire at that point, and any that remain when a cancelled subscription ends expire with it. Versions you bought separately are not affected. A change of plan applies from the next renewal, except an upgrade to Premium, which is billed for the difference straight away and adds the extra versions then.
Payment is taken when you buy a version or a plan, before a version is run. All payments are final. We may still return money at our own discretion — a duplicate charge is the obvious case — but that is a decision we make, not something these terms promise you.
What you are buying
A report on what the rules you described would have done over a historical window, using the assumptions the report states. You are not buying a strategy, an opinion about one, or any outcome in a live market. Read the risk disclosure before acting on any figure in a report.
Months held back
When you start a strategy we set aside about 30% of the months in every year of its window. The same months are held back for every version of that strategy and do not change. The figures, equity curve and trade list on a report leave out any trade that is open in a held-back month: one that enters or exits in it, or is held across it. The report shows which months were held back.
Strategies, plans and archiving
There is no active-strategy limit on any plan. With no plan, shown on your account as "No plan · pay per version", you pay $19 per version. Archiving a strategy does not delete it: it stays readable, takes no new versions, and reopens when your plan allows it again.
If your rules are ambiguous
Written trading rules often admit more than one reading. Where that happens we do not guess silently and we do not cancel your order. The run proceeds on the most conservative reading of the ambiguous rule, and the report says which reading was tested and why, as a stated assumption alongside the fill, cost, same-bar and roll assumptions it already carries.
Where your rules are ambiguous, we test the most conservative reading and state the assumption on the report. We will normally ask you the question first, in the message thread on your order, before running anything.
If we ask you a question and hear nothing
When we post a question on your order and three business days pass with no answer, the run proceeds on the most conservative reading, recorded as a stated assumption on the report. We do this rather than hold a paid order open indefinitely. Answering at any point before that stops the clock.
Times and time zone
Every clock time you enter, and every timestamp on a report, is America/New_York — US Eastern — including the daylight-saving changes. That is the clock the CME trading day is defined by. It is not a setting, and it is shown wherever a time is.
Changes to these terms
These terms are versioned by date. The version in force when you paid is the version recorded against your order and the one that governs it. A later change does not apply backwards.
