How It Works
A rules-based approach to intraday TSLA trading.
No discretion, no emotion, fully automated. Urban Alpha executes a systematic 15-minute breakout strategy on Tesla, exactly as designed, every session.

Systematic breakout execution.
Urban Alpha monitors Tesla Inc. (TSLA) on the 15-minute timeframe, identifying high-probability intraday breakout conditions using predefined entry criteria.
There are no discretionary overrides. The strategy runs exactly as designed, every session.
Entry
Each session, Urban Alpha analyses pre-market price structure to define the context for that day's trading. When Regular Trading Hours open, the strategy evaluates real-time price action against a set of predefined conditions. A trade is only initiated when multiple independent criteria are satisfied simultaneously — a single condition is never sufficient. This multi-factor gate is what keeps participation selective and avoids low-quality setups.
Risk Management
Every trade enters with a hard stop in place from the moment of execution. There is no trade without defined risk. From there, a layered exit framework activates — designed to move the strategy toward a protected position as a trade develops favourably, while cutting losing trades quickly and without hesitation.
Exit
Beyond the initial stop, Urban Alpha's exit logic is designed to solve a different problem: how to retain profits on a trade that is working. It operates a structured exit stack rather than a single exit rule. Depending on how a trade develops, different exit conditions become active — some designed to lock in gains progressively, others to prevent a winning trade from becoming a losing one. The result is an asymmetric payoff profile: losers are contained, qualified winners are given room.
What this means in practice
The strategy is in the market less than 2% of the time. It does not trade every day. It waits for conditions that meet its criteria, acts decisively when they arrive, and exits cleanly. Patience and discipline are built into the rules.
