"Phoenix team on Alpaca AI Trading Agents Hackathon Hackathon"

Team Idea

I am building an autonomous artificial intelligence trading agent designed to independently navigate the options market. The system relies on a quantitative model and language model architecture to continuously analyze live market data, evaluate volatility signals, and identify high-probability trading setups. Once an opportunity is detected, the agent seamlessly interfaces with the Alpaca paper trading environment using its developer tools to execute trades on a fresh one hundred thousand dollar account. Rather than taking uncalculated gambles, the agent focuses on defined-risk options strategies to generate steady portfolio growth. To ensure long-term stability and protect the simulated capital, the system is constrained by strict, hardcoded risk management rules. These programmatic guardrails operate independently of the artificial intelligence, automatically enforcing position sizing limits and stop-losses to prevent catastrophic drawdowns without requiring any human intervention.
