Trade ideas that
show their work.

Trade Catalyst watches market events and turns them into clear trade ideas. Each card shows what happened, where the risk is, what the separate AI check said, and how the result turned out. Wins and losses stay in the public record.

Educational observations only. Not financial advice or trade instructions.

AI-Run Buy & Hold · Proven live
Our AI invests a real $500 and holds long term
An autonomous AI agent puts our own $500 into the Buy and Hold strategy and holds for the long term. Real money, live. Not a backtest, not a simulation.

This is one real $500 experimental account, kept fully separate from the signal track record above. It is not a typical result and not a projection of what anyone else would make.

The Strategies

Four named strategies. Rules before opinions.

Each strategy has a one-page rulebook: entry rule, exit rule, grading method, risk label. Nothing publishes until it cleanly meets its rules.

Lottery

Publishing now

A cheap option that only pays if the stock makes a big move fast. Most of these tickets lose; the rare winners pay multiples.

HIGHEST RISK. Most of these lose everything. Never use money you need.

LEAPs

Publishing daily

A call option that does not expire for 1.5–2 years, on a big economic trend most people have not priced in yet.

HIGH RISK, SLOW CLOCK. Cheaper than stock, can still go to zero. Measured in quarters, not days.

Buy & Hold

Publishing daily

Buying real shares of funds and companies: invest on day one, add a small amount every week, let dividends reinvest. The weekly habit builds the account.

LOWER RISK, NOT NO RISK. A bad market year can take $500 to ~$350–400. Built for years, not weeks.

Swing

Publishing now, paper-tracked

Buying real shares of a stock riding a fresh catalyst, holding a few days to two weeks, and selling on a plan set before entry. No options, no same-day pressure.

MEDIUM-HIGH RISK. Shares can gap past a stop overnight. Position small; the stop is the plan, not a suggestion.

Strategies marked “proving on demo accounts” publish nothing until simulated trading validates their rules. We prove first, sell second. All signals are educational observations, not trade instructions.
