Is AI trading legit? Frequently asked questions

No, and that protects you. Agenttrading shows educational analysis with every assumption visible; it never tells you what to buy or sell. No one who has not seen your full financial picture should, which is why personalized recommendations are the job of a licensed advisor, not software. Every analysis carries the same two lines: past performance does not guarantee future results, and this is educational analysis only. Consult a licensed advisor before acting on anything.

No. There is no trade execution, no brokerage connection, and no order routing of any kind, by design. Agenttrading is analysis only: it summarizes fundamentals, backtests rules on historical data, and explains risks. You decide what, if anything, to do with the result, in your own brokerage account, on your own judgment.

No, never. Agenttrading does not produce buy lists, signals, or personalized recommendations. It tests YOUR idea and explains what 20+ years of historical data say about it: how the rule performed, what the drawdowns looked like, and where the risks concentrate. The verdict is a statement about history, not a prediction or a recommendation.

No. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and we print that sentence on every chart rather than in a footnote. A backtest tells you how a rule would have behaved in past markets, which is genuinely useful for killing bad ideas and understanding risk, but markets change and rules that worked can stop working. Anyone who promises otherwise is selling something else.

Historical daily prices adjusted for splits and dividends, plus company fundamentals from public filings, covering 20+ years for US-listed stocks and ETFs. Every backtest lists its assumptions with the result: the exact date range, the cost per trade assumed (0.1% by default, configurable on Pro), and the rule parameters. If an assumption changes the answer, you can see it and change it.

No. You describe the idea in plain English or paste a ticker, and the assistant extracts a testable rule, shows it to you before running, and executes the backtest. There is no Pine Script, no block-based logic builder, and no formula syntax. If the assistant misreads your idea, you see it immediately in the restated rule and can rephrase.

Yes. Monthly plans cancel at the end of the billing month and yearly plans at the end of the term, both from your account settings with no calls and no forms. Plans start at $19 per month, which is less than one bad trade's commission-and-slippage lesson, and well under TrendSpider ($48 to $228 per month) or Trade Ideas ($89 to $178 per month).

Active self-directed investors and swing traders who vet ideas before sizing them, part-time traders with day jobs, research and fund teams that want one consistent, auditable vetting process, and investment clubs that would rather argue from the same backtest than from opinions. It is not for anyone looking for signals to follow blindly or a bot that trades unattended; we do not make one.
