Copy or create AI trading bots

Copy an AI trading bot. Or create your own.

Start from a real deployed stock, crypto, or options bot—or give Aurora a market idea and build from scratch. Inspect the evidence, stress-test the logic, then paper trade or automate through a supported brokerage.

Verification pipeline

How an AI trading bot earns trust.

NexusTrade does more than generate a bot around an attractive backtest. Aurora can put its thesis and typed rules through a multi-stage research, construction, and out-of-sample testing loop.

The founder trades with an AI bot

The $25,000 Public Portfolio Challenge.

NexusTrade's founder connected his own live brokerage account and made the AI trading bot experiment public. The series documents agent runs, bot changes, fills, bugs, wins, and losses—not a polished retrospective.

Beyond chat

A confident answer is not verified evidence.

NexusTrade connects Aurora to market data, a typed strategy engine, systematic validation, and native brokerage execution.

The marketplace engine

Copy an AI bot—or create the next one.

Most investors can browse and deploy bots. Creators and quants can use Aurora and the underlying research stack to build, challenge, publish, and monetize them.

Alternative data lake

Turn difficult data into a research edge.

Scrape filings, follow congressional disclosures, ingest creator libraries, and query custom datasets in one research corpus.

Search for weaknesses, not a pretty curve.

Use genetic optimizers, systematic surfaces, event audits, breadth checks, and rolling out-of-sample studies to challenge a strategy.

Trust is a product feature

Know how the bot operates before capital moves.

Returns matter. So do deployment state, drawdowns, underlying rules, and whether AI builds, manages, or simply monitors the deterministic execution.

Real return history

Bot rankings come from stored deployed-portfolio performance—not homepage examples.

Risk in context

Sharpe, Sortino, drawdown, followers, and PAPER/LIVE state stay visible beside return.

Paper or live

Test a copied strategy in simulation or connect a supported brokerage when ready.

Know the bot mode

AI-built, agent-managed, copy-trading, and deterministic execution can remain explicit instead of being collapsed into hype.

From the people using it

Built for curious investors and serious builders.

“I was truly impressed by NexusTrade; it's brilliantly designed. You did an excellent job of considering all aspects of trading and research which made the application smartly transition from research to strategy, to watchlist, to trade… very nicely done. Overall, it's a significant step forward for investing.”

Spencer K. Chief Finance Officer / Institutional Investor

“I discovered NexusTrade on YouTube and was so impressed that I invited the founder to speak at my MBA class. What makes it special is that it's not just another AI language model — it's a visual demonstration of how AI can be practically applied.”

Michael P. Senior Lecturer at Harvard Business School

“It allows me to create my own trading strategy easily and quickly. Even though I know how to code, it's still very enjoyable to do this with such ease. I was able to optimize my strategy to the fullest and ended up with something truly incredible.”

Delanoe P. Artificial Intelligence Engineer
