Strategy Lab
Sketch a strategy in plain language or drag-drop blocks. Crossovers, sentiment triggers, options spreads, news pivots — wired up in minutes, not weekends.
Most algo sellers ship screenshots. Botfolio ships every paper trade — wins, losses, and the reasoning behind each move, logged automatically. Build the bot, watch it work, decide for yourself.
See the actual paper trades before you sign up. No screenshots, no cherry-picked equity curves.

Most new traders lose money before their first winning month — and most never find out why. That isn't a learning curve, it's tuition. Botfolio refuses to bill you for that lesson.

Market data, AI strategy logic, paper execution, receipts, alerts, and learning loops — all in one control center. Botfolio handles the wiring so you can focus on whether the strategy actually works.
Sketch a strategy in plain language or drag-drop blocks. Crossovers, sentiment triggers, options spreads, news pivots — wired up in minutes, not weekends.
Auto-learns rules from every loss your bot takes. If the bot lost in low-VIX trending regimes, Bot Brain refuses the next trade that fits that pattern — without you writing a single line.
Replay your strategy against historical market data. Compare to SPY, to your last revision, to a coin flip. Slippage-adjusted returns show what real users actually got.
Live 0–100 drift score per bot. If your strategy's behavior diverges from its backtest for 7 days, it auto-flags. The Mortality Report tells you exactly which regime broke it.
Browse strategies shipped by other Botfolio users — sorted by current market regime fit. Copy-trade with one click. Every listing carries its public loss ledger.
Per-bot Bayesian heatmap across VIX × market regime. Shows where your edge is real (with Wilson-score confidence bands) and where you're just sampling noise.
From "I have a thesis" to "I have a number" in under fifteen minutes. The numbers won't always be flattering. That's the entire point.
Type it in plain English or drag in indicators. Botfolio compiles it into a runnable bot.
Your bot trades in a broker-connected paper environment. Real-time prices, bid/ask-aware fills, zero rent at risk.
Sharpe, drawdown, slippage, trade-by-trade why-it-fired logs. Yesterday's brag becomes today's evidence.
Winners can graduate from paper to live when you are ready. Losers archive. No falling in love with sunk effort.
Every Botfolio bot runs one of four strategy presets inside the same workspace: build, backtest, paper trade, learn, and log receipts without juggling separate broker dashboards or data tools.
Uses your aggressiveness, risk tolerance, focus assets, and watchlist to run a paper bot end to end. Bot Brain learns from every loss and refuses to repeat the same losing setup in the same regime. Every decision is logged with reasoning.
Defined-risk premium selling on liquid tickers. Bull put / bear call spreads with regime and IV filters.
Rides confirmed momentum with long calls. EMA crossovers, MACD, and trend filters decide entries; time stops decide exits.
Runs income and directional sleeves side by side in one bot, budgeted by your risk tolerance.
Botfolio isn't another backtester with a leaderboard. These exist because survivorship bias, mock fills, and "trust me bro" stat sheets are the whole reason new traders blow up.
“Slippage-adjusted returns. Every strategy listing shows the average return real users got — next to the backtest claim. Spread between the two is your edge tax.”
“Wilson-score confidence bands on every stat. "43% win rate ± 17%, n=28" — instead of pretending 28 trades is a verdict.”
“Reproducibility certificate per backtest — SHA-256 of the data + code that produced the number. Re-run it any time. No claims you can't audit.”
Four tiers. No credit card to start. No "schedule a demo." Cancel from inside the app — no email gauntlet.
Build, backtest, and paper-trade — no credit card required.
Up to 3 paper bots with the full AI strategy builder and unlimited backtests.
Unlock live trading controls, marketplace publishing, and priority support.
For serious traders who want priority queue, more bots, and white-glove support.
