Trading automation software

Trading bot software, executed by your rules.

Build your own trading bot from a blank slate, or start from an editable template, and run it through your own brokerage account (Alpaca at launch). Every rule is visible and every setting is yours.

Trading involves significant risk of loss. Automated systems are tools, not guarantees of profit. Read the full risk disclosure.

Templates

Start from a template, or start from scratch

Templates are starting points, not recommendations. Each one is a complete rule set you can read in full, switch parts of on or off, and edit before anything trades. Every subscriber on a plan sees the same templates.

In testing

Small Cap Momentum templates

StocksFull dayET

A stock-based alternative to the options templates, still in testing and not yet offered to subscribers. The rules cover the full trading day: a morning component that looks for premarket gappers with volume and price filters and waits for a confirmed breakout, and an afternoon component that looks for failed-move reversals after midday. Exits are tiered, with partial profit-taking and a trailing stop on the remainder.

  • Premarket gapper detection with volume filter
  • Failed-move reversal entries in the afternoon session
  • Breakout confirmation required (no early entries)
  • Tiered exit framework with trailing stops

Not a guarantee. These figures come from paper (simulated) trading while these rules are tested. They are not live-money results and not promised results. Your outcomes will depend on the rules and settings you choose, your broker, position sizes, fill prices, slippage and market conditions.

Live

0DTE Options templates

SPYQQQIndex optionsIntraday

Zero-days-to-expiration options templates on liquid index ETFs. Each template is a full rule set you can read and edit: when it may enter, what has to confirm first, how it sizes positions, and how it exits, including a hard option-level stop. Templates are snapshots. When we improve one, it is released as a new template you can choose to adopt, and your copy never changes on its own.

  • Liquid index options only
  • Every entry and exit rule visible
  • Switch individual components on or off
  • Tiered exits with a hard option-level stop

Not a guarantee. These figures reflect a template account, sized at 10% of the account per position, and are not promised results. Your outcomes will vary based on your broker, your rules and settings, position sizes, fill prices, slippage, and market conditions at execution.

How it works

From sign-up to your own running bot in four steps

01

Pick a plan

Basic gives you a blank-slate rules builder. Standard and Professional add the template library. Plans differ by tools, not by expected results.

02

Connect your broker

Link your own brokerage account by API, paper or live. Alpaca at launch, with more brokers planned. Credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.

03

Set your rules

Build from scratch or copy a template, then review every rule and setting. Required fields must be filled in before anything can run.

04

Verify and switch on

A verification step checks your setup before it can go live. Once on, your bot follows your rules in your account during market hours, and you can pause it any time.

Performance

Recent daily results — paper template account

What the templates returned on the most recent trading day in paper (simulated) trading, at 10% of the account per position, scaled across hypothetical account sizes. Not a projection. Not a guarantee. Not what you will earn.

These figures show what happened in a paper (simulated) template account on a single past trading day, scaled mathematically to different account sizes at the same percentage. They do not predict, project, or guarantee any future result. Your actual results will differ — likely substantially — due to your account size, strategy settings, position sizing limits, slippage, commissions, market liquidity, and the specific market conditions at the time of your trades. The trading day shown rotates as new data is logged.

Important performance disclosure

  • Paper results: Paper (simulated) trading uses no real money and no real fills, and can differ materially from live trading.
  • Past performance: Historical results shown are not indicative of future performance. Market conditions change constantly and strategies that worked previously may not work in the future.
  • Results will vary: Your actual results will differ based on account size, your strategy configuration and risk settings, execution timing, slippage, commission costs, and market conditions at the time of your trades.
  • Projection limitations: Account figures assume identical percentage returns across all account sizes. Larger accounts may experience reduced percentage returns due to market impact and liquidity constraints.
  • No guarantee: We do not guarantee any level of profit or protection from loss. You could lose some or all of your investment, including more than expected.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Trading Bots Pro?

Trading Bots Pro is trading bot software for self-directed traders. You build your own trading rules from a blank slate, or start from an editable template, and the software runs them through your own brokerage account on the settings you choose.

Does Trading Bots Pro give investment advice?

No. Trading Bots Pro is a software tool, not an investment adviser or broker-dealer. Templates are starting points, not recommendations, and every subscriber on a plan sees the same templates. You choose every rule and setting your bot runs.

Which brokers does it work with?

Alpaca is supported at launch, with either a paper or a live account. More brokers, such as Tradier, Interactive Brokers and Schwab, are planned.

Can I start on a paper trading account?

Yes. Every plan can connect an Alpaca paper account, so you can run your rules without real money first. A verification step checks your setup before a bot can trade a live account.

What is a template?

A template is a complete, pre-built rule set you can read in full, copy into your account and edit. Templates are snapshots: when one is improved, it is released as a new template you can choose to adopt, and your copy never changes on its own.

What do the templates trade?

Today's templates cover zero-days-to-expiration (0DTE) options on SPY and QQQ. Stock-based Small Cap Momentum templates are still in testing.

Does my bot use AI to decide trades?

No. Your bot follows only the rules you set. No AI makes trading decisions in your bot.

Who holds my money?

Your money stays in your own brokerage account. Trading Bots Pro never holds customer funds, and your broker API credentials are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.

How much does it cost?

Basic is $99 a month for the rules builder and one bot. Standard is $150 a month and adds the template library. Professional is $275 a month and adds advanced multi-strategy templates and a second bot. Plans are monthly and you can cancel any time.
