AI Summary
Summary
The author describes a 2-week-old algo bot trading TQQQ and SQQQ daily, claiming zero losses so far.
The strategy uses a custom Ruby script with candle data, filter rules (1.5% overnight gap), and Claude MCP to execute on Robinhood.
The author is cautiously optimistic but acknowledges the limited track record (2 weeks) and that it's a learning project.
Quality assessment: This is low-quality anecdotal noise, not well-researched due diligence. Very short backtest, no risk metrics, and no objective validation.

Hey folks, I am back with fresh trading data after the end of last week. Keeping everyone updated on its progress as I go. I am now on week 2 of my claude algo trading bot and its going great so far. I am becoming convinced slowly that this is a legit strategy, but still skeptical a bit as im only done with 2 weeks so far, and going into week 3 tomorrow.
How it works:
I try to just trade TQQQ and SQQQ and get it right each day. if i get it wrong i stop for the day.
day 1:
buy TQQQ
Day 2-9:
buy SQQQ only and 2 days skipped due to filter rules of 1.5% overnight gap
I set up a custom ruby script that runs my algorithm using candle data and then it writes signals to a file that I have wrapped in a process by claude. It could definitely be improved but claude MCP to robinhood got me up and running quickly. I had the entire thing built and backtested in 1 day after chatting with a buddy at dinner the night before about the strategy to use.
anyways, im definitely still learning, but this is so much fun and a great learning journey!
what type of bot strategies are yall using to scalp profits each day?
