Consultancy and Training Services - Algo & AI-Powered Financial Trading
Consultancy and Training Services for Financial Trading powered by Automated Algorithmic and Artificial Intelligence Strategies.
CONSULTANCY SERVICES OVERVIEW
At Trade Like A Machine, we specialise in trading the financial markets using a branch of artificial intelligence called Reinforcement Learning (RL). Find out more about how we use RL.
The consultancy we offer is therefore specifically focussed on the use of this RL technique in a financial trading context. However there is of course a significant overlap between RL and classical (non-AI) algorithmic trading in terms of the skillsets and knowledge that are required. Therefore we will occasionally also consider the delivery of consultancy for classical algo trading, but only when it genuinely overlaps with RL competencies.
OPTION 1: SHORT-TERM CONTRACT
Consultancy is offered via short-term contracts, either at the client's office or remotely. When required, professional implementation services can also be delivered, working alongside your AI development team.
Example Customer Objective: This option is ideal for clients who have tried but failed to deliver alpha from the markets using other branches of AI such as supervised learning, and now want to migrate to RL.
Rates: By negotiation based on requirement.
OPTION 2: ONE-OFF BESPOKE CONSULTANCY
This option is ideal for clients who have a specific issue or problem for which they require resolution. Alternatively you may have questions about, for example, your approach to trading using RL, or best-practice implementation for which you've never been able to find answers. If so, then our one-off bespoke consultancy service might be right for you.
A typical engagement consists of:
- The client providing a detailed bullet point list of questions and topics they wish to cover
- Pre-planning that TLAM will undertake to ensure the subsequent online customer-facing session(s) will deliver maximum value for the client
- 2-hour customer-facing session (usually sufficient for most engagements)
- Further customer-facing sessions if required for larger engagements (by customer agreement)
Rates: GBP £2,400 (minimum engagement including 2-hour session)
Each additional hour (or part-hour) of customer-facing sessions if required: GBP £1,050.
Sessions delivered remotely using web conferencing technology.
Note that we provide 'eduactional' and technical services only. We do not provide financial or investment advice.

"I’ve been a client of 'Trade Like A Machine' for around 3 years. I’ve worked directly with Martyn Tinsley as a consultancy client over the last 4 to 5 months. To say that I’ve made quantum leaps is no understatement.
Over the years I’ve met with a handful of outstanding traders and fund managers. One that I’ve worked with and actually come away with workable, long-term plan and genuine value is Martyn. Martyn has a remarkable skillset and expertise in the most forward-looking of trading abilities.
Using Martyn’s methods, I’ve already built profitable systems but Martyn teaches long-term thinking and strategising. Working with Martyn has given me total confidence in my own ability to create and update investment strategies over the long-term. He’s shown me how to prove what works in the markets and what doesn't.
He cuts through anything you don’t need to know and jam packs each session with essential value and actionable techniques. I cannot recommend working with Martyn enough. He cares about the results you are going to get and has a strong attitude of capital preservation. He’s also a great guy."
Dr Samuel Beatson
Algorithmic Trader and Investment Manager (Sheffield, UK)
"Martyn has been monumental in my progression to becoming a self-sustained algorithmic trader. He has the foresight and experience to highlight your blindspots quickly, some of which could have taken months or years to recognise on your own.
He lays out very clear and common sense pathways to attaining a robust system and gives you the right tools to build it yourself. He openly articulates frameworks to produce successful systems (that he untises himself) and gives clear insights as to why they matter.
Martyn is backed up with results and experience. He has the ability to talk deeply on any subject related to the financial markets and will have some thoughtful insights into any unique problem you may have. Martyn has given me confidence by giving me knowledge. I am looking forward to our future interactions.
If you take algorithmic trading seriously, having Martyn as part of your journey is essential."
Sean Johnson
Algorithmic Trader (Wellington, New Zealand)
“After trying to wrap my head around algorithmic trading for a year, and after following Martyn on social media and reading his blog and articles, I realized immediately that he was the person that could help me put things into perspective and guide me.
I have taken a couple of the training modules with Martyn, in addition to bespoke consultancy in many areas surrounding algorithmic trading, optimization, and coding. I must say that the service provided has exceeded my expectations. Martyn doesn’t shy away from sharing the skills and knowledge that he has acquired throughout the years. It has been very insightful and eye-opening in many areas. He changed the way I approach trading.
I highly recommend his services for anyone that is seeking a serious path in algorithmic trading.”
Abbas Khelkhali
Algorithmic Trader and Trading System Developer (Dubai - United Arab Emirates)
"Martyn is a great coach and has deep knowledge in the field of algorithmic trading.
He designed a coaching program just for me based on how much I knew about forex trading and systematic trading; he patiently walked me through the program.
Martyn has equipped me with the right knowledge and tools to become a successful algorithmic trader. What I like about Martyn is that he is not only a great coach but also a successful algorithmic trader; this was an incredibly important point for me in my decision to work with him. He made it easy to transition from manual trading to algorithmic trading."
Aboubakar Coulibaly
Algo Trader and Trading System Developer (Dhahran - Saudi Arabia)
“Martyn has a huge knowledge which he is willing to share and he also makes difficult concepts easy to understand. His scientific approach has provided me with a lot of confidence about how to develop and test systems robustly.
The training has been of huge benefit to my knowledge in algorithmic trading. I have reached a level that I could not have imagined before I started the training. Now I can develop my own strategies avoiding all the traps that most traders are not even aware of when trying to develop their own automated trading systems.
I would 100% recommend his training.”
Arnaud Hoffstetter
Professional Trader and Trading System Developer (France)
“It's been an incredible journey with Martyn. We came from the discretionary side of trading and we have been looking for some time for a way to learn algorithmic trading and put our ideas into automated EAs. We performed a lot of research on the internet and Trade Like A Machine was the best choice and this was backed up his multiple track records that demonstrated to us that what he teaches really works!
Martyn has the patience and the ability to teach everything we needed in a really understandable way, even with the barrier of the language (English is not our native language)."

1Some modules include our MT5 EA Framework in the price. However, note that this does not come with any support after the consultancy has finished. It's a case of 'you are free to use it, but you need to understand and support it yourself'. If you did need support for future systems that you develop, or if for example you change code that introduces a bug etc. then free support cannot be provided. You would either need to resolve any issues yourself, or pay for assistance from us on an hourly basis.
