The bot trades through Alpaca out of the box. Want it to trade on a different broker? We'll customize the bot to fit your broker for a one-time $399.00 — contact us to get started.
Each bot requires one license, registered to a single computer. Changing computers? Just email us and we'll switch your license over for you.
Buy whichever fits how you trade — or run both from the same dashboard. Each is a one-time $499.00 purchase with no recurring bot fee, and the optional AI Director can steer either one.
Trades U.S. equities during market hours through Alpaca. Every minute it pulls fresh bars on ~200 liquid stocks, runs all 37 strategies, and only enters when consensus and confidence line up. The moment a stock entry fills, the Options Mirror fires an at-the-money call (long) or put (short) alongside it, then closes that option when the stock closes. Trailing stops, time stops, daily-loss circuit breakers, and a spread gate manage every exit.
$499.00 one-time · trades through Alpaca
The same strategy and consensus engine, adapted for cryptocurrency and running around the clock — crypto never closes, so neither does the bot. It trades major coins through Alpaca's crypto API, applies the same risk management (trailing stops, hard backstops, daily-loss limits, re-entry cooldowns), and reports to its own live dashboard. No options leg — just clean spot entries and exits, supervised by the AI Director if you enable it.

The AI Director is an optional $49.99/month subscription that supervises either bot — DayTrader or Crypto. It scans the market, green-lights entries, and tunes strategies to the current regime (guard-railed), and it talks to whatever LLM you give it. Use your existing Anthropic key, swap in OpenAI, or run a local model. Cancel anytime; your bots keep trading.
Reads market regime and recent good & bad news, decides consensus and conditions, then approves or vetoes the open.
Enables or disables strategies for the current regime within limits you set, so it adapts without going off the rails.
Includes the web dashboard on our site — log in from any device to monitor your bots and close positions remotely.
Sonnet 4.6 / Opus 4.6 / Haiku — drop in your API key, done.
GPT-4o, GPT-4 Turbo, or any OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint.
Llama 3, Mistral, Qwen, DeepSeek — keep your trading prompts private.
Gemini 1.5 Pro / Flash via the Google AI API.
Grok 2 / Grok 3 via xAI's OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Anything that speaks JSON over HTTP. Swap providers in the XML config.
Most retail bots are toys. WildcatQC is the bot a small fund would build if they had to start from scratch.
Plug in Claude, GPT-4, or any LLM. Every 15 minutes, the AI reviews market regime, strategy performance, and active positions — then tunes filters, gates entries, or pauses bad strategies.
Momentum, mean reversion, breakouts, MACD, Parabolic SAR, Fisher Transform, Hull MA, Connor's RSI, Ultimate Oscillator, and more. Consensus filter means signals only fire when multiple strategies agree.
Buys an at-the-money call (long) or put (short) the moment a stock entry fills. Auto-closes the options leg when the stock closes. Configurable contracts, max spread, max premium, expiration window.
Trailing stops with activation thresholds. Time stops. Hard percentage backstops. Daily-loss circuit breakers. Spread gates that veto bad fills. Re-entry cooldowns after stop-outs. Watchdog that kills frozen threads.
DayTrader bot for stocks and Crypto bot for 24/7 coins — each isolated, each tunable, each visible on the same web dashboard. Run one or both.
Watch every position, fill, and signal in real-time on your machine OR from a phone via the web dashboard. Manual CLOSE button works from anywhere. Live signal consensus + confidence tuning.
Critical threads are monitored. If anything freezes, the bot restarts itself. If the Alpaca API hiccups, the wrapper retries with escalating backoff. Never wake up to a dead bot.
Every order, every fill, every P&L pairing logged to local SQLite AND optionally synced to a remote MySQL dashboard. Day-grouped trade history with win/loss breakdowns.
Change consensus thresholds, confidence floors, and options settings live from the dashboard. Save & Apply persists to XML so settings survive restart. No code edits, no downtime.
From boot to first trade, here's what happens under the hood — and what you'll see on your dashboard. The Crypto bot follows the same flow, minus the options leg, and runs 24/7.
Every minute the bot pulls fresh bars for ~200 liquid stocks. 37 strategies run in parallel and vote on each symbol.
A signal only fires when N strategies agree AND their combined confidence exceeds your threshold. Tune both live from the dashboard.
The AI Director reviews current regime, recent performance, and the candidate trade. It can green-light, gate strategies on/off, or veto.
The order routes through Alpaca with a spread gate. On the DayTrader bot, if Options Mirror is on, an ATM call (long) or put (short) fires in parallel; the Crypto bot places a clean spot order.
Trailing stop, time stop, MACD fade, hard backstop, and signal flip — whichever trips first closes the stock AND its option leg.
Every fill writes to local SQLite, syncs to your remote MySQL mirror, and updates the day-grouped P&L tally on every dashboard.
Own your bot once instead of renting signals forever. Here's how the DayTrader bot stacks up against the leading stock-trading platforms.
No endless subscription to run the bot. $499 today — it keeps trading for you, with free updates.
Runs on your own PC and your own Alpaca account. Bring your own AI key (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok or local) — we never resell tokens.
37 strategies vote on every trade; the optional AI Director reads the news & market regime and steers within hard safety limits.
Typical 5-year software cost — WildcatQC is a one-time buy; the rest bill every month.
WildcatQC = bot, one-time (AI Director optional, $49.99/mo). Competitor figures use a representative annual tier × 5 years; higher tiers cost more.

The biggest difference isn't a single feature — it's the model. Almost every tool above is a rental: stop paying and the software stops working, and several of them route your orders or sell signals on top. WildcatQC is a one-time $499 purchase that runs on your own machine, trades through your own Alpaca account, and keeps working whether or not you ever add the AI Director. Over five years that's roughly $499 versus $1,900–$5,300+ for a comparable competitor tier — and you still own the bot at the end.
You also keep control of the two things that matter most: your data and your AI. Trades execute on your broker and log to your own database — nothing is locked inside someone else's cloud. The optional AI Director plugs into the LLM you choose (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, or a local model) with your API key, so there's no token markup and no model lock-in. Most competitors give you one fixed, closed model — or no AI at all.
And it's a genuine, fully-automated day-trader, not just a scanner or a backtester: 37 strategies vote on every entry, an optional options mirror hedges each stock fill with an ATM call or put, and hard-coded risk limits — trailing stops, daily-loss circuit breakers, spread gates — run on every trade. The AI supervises inside those guardrails: it can tune and gate strategies for the current regime, but it can't override your safety limits.
WildcatQC is a fully licensed, production-grade platform — not a black box and not a "course." It's the bot a quant developer would hand you on day one, kept up to date and supported.
