One vocabulary for every market

Strategies name instruments the same way everywhere: a symbol and its venue. Trade and chart every US stock, ETF, listed option and crypto pair your broker offers, with real-time prices, news and movers from your own linked account. Before you link one, a clearly labelled demo market lets you build and paper trade safely.

From idea to live order in three deliberate steps

Nothing reaches a market until you have seen it work. Each step builds on a record you can go back and read.

    Build it on a canvas

    Connect market data to conditions and an order. Every rule is visible, the graph is checked before it can publish, and each published version is kept, so you can explain exactly why a trade would happen.

    Test it with honest numbers

    Run it on paper against a simulated exchange, with orders, fills, positions and cash recorded as if it were live. Backtest it on your own price history, with fees, slippage and the data source shown and the result labeled hypothetical.

    Go live with limits you set

    Link your own brokerage account. Every order passes your risk policy first, on our servers with a price we observe ourselves, and one switch stops everything.

Headlines become signals only at the gate

An AI news filter will read headlines and propose signals you can inspect. Each one meets the same risk gate as every other signal, and none can place an order, publish a strategy or change a limit without your confirmation.

Rendered scene. The AI news filter is not available yet.

What works today, and what comes next

Every capability is labeled with where it stands. We would rather you plan around what exists than around a promise.

  • Visual strategy builderAvailable

    Market data, indicators, conditions, risk and orders as nodes you can read at a glance. The same rules check the canvas and the server.

  • Paper tradingAvailable

    A simulated exchange fills your strategy’s orders and keeps its book, cash and positions.

  • Risk before every orderAvailable

    Order size, notional and position limits are enforced server-side before an order exists.

  • Kill switchAvailable

    Halt new orders across your whole workspace in one step.

  • A complete recordPartly available

    Signals, risk decisions, and paper orders and fills are kept today. Exports come next.

  • CopilotOllama only

    Ask about your strategy with a model on your own machine. A Quant you host yourself can also answer on Anthropic, OpenAI or OpenRouter.

  • Markets lookupAvailable

    Search every US stock, ETF and crypto pair your broker lists, see what each supports, and browse listed option chains by expiration and strike.

  • BacktestsAvailable

    Replay your own price history through the same risk checks and fill model, with fees, slippage and the data source shown, labeled hypothetical.

  • Your broker, trading access onlyPartly available

    Link your own brokerage account over OAuth. Your money stays there: YQuant asks only for trading and market data access, which cannot withdraw or transfer funds. Live trading is coming soon.

Guardrails are built in, not bolted on

A strategy cannot be published without a risk policy, and it will not trade live until it has run on paper. Some safeguards below are on the roadmap and marked as such.

  • Your money stays at your broker

    YQuant never holds funds. Linking your brokerage account grants trading and market data access only, which cannot withdraw or transfer funds, and you can revoke it at your broker at any time.

  • Limits run before every order

    Max order size and position caps are checked on our servers against a price we observe ourselves. Daily loss limits are on the roadmap.

  • One switch stops everything

    The kill switch halts new orders across every strategy in your workspace immediately.

  • A complete recordPartly available

    Every signal, risk decision, paper order and fill is kept. Exports and Copilot suggestions join the record as those features ship.
