Workflow
Automation with explicit controls
The bot workflow is designed to require explicit broker context, then move from paper practice to live only through visible safety gates.
2
Run the scanner
Generate strategy candidates with risk caps, score floors, and blocked reasons for setups that do not pass.
3
Open in paper trading
Send allowed candidates into the paper trading engine with audit events, position monitoring, and reviewable execution history.
4
Unlock live mode explicitly
Live execution stays behind profile.live_enabled, consent, cooling-off, kill switch, and circuit breaker gates.
5
Control AI spend
The included AI trial is small, then prepaid balance debits at 6x provider cost.
Capabilities
A bot surface built for trust
Broker-required operation
The bot does not run on synthetic public fallbacks. Users must connect tastytrade before scanning or paper automation.
Strategy risk caps
Per-trade, portfolio, and symbol exposure limits make every candidate explain why it is allowed or blocked.
AI wallet controls
Free usage is capped, and additional LLM usage requires prepaid balance instead of open-ended token spend.
User value
Why this matters
- Users get a clear automation path from broker connection to paper practice and then to live approval.
- The business avoids uncontrolled Anthropic spend from free accounts.
- Paper-open audit events make bot behavior reviewable.
- SEO captures high-intent searches around trading bot scanners, broker-connected automation, and paper workflows.

Does the trading bot place live trades?
Yes, but only after the user connects tastytrade, passes live enablement, grants consent, finishes cooling-off, and stays inside the active safety gates.
How is AI usage limited?
Free users receive a small included AI trial. After that, AI requests require prepaid balance charged at 6x provider cost.
