Self-hosted AI trading platform with paper trading via Alpaca
What it is
A self-hosted AI trading platform written in Python. It covers strategy evolution, technical analysis and backtesting, and runs paper trading through the Alpaca brokerage API. Developers and traders who want their own AI-assisted strategy lab running on their own machine are the target users. Paper trading is the supported mode, so moving to real money would need further work, review and careful testing.
