Paper trading by default
Vrot is a Windows app that trades your own brokerage account by itself. It works with Alpaca today, with more brokers coming soon. Your keys stay on your computer.
The Free plan costs $0 and trades on paper with both parts.
Why Vrot
Most auto trading tools only pass along signals you make yourself. Vrot comes with its own.
No TradingView scripts, alerts or webhooks to set up. Install it and pick what it trades.
Paper trade both parts for as long as you like. No card, no trial clock.
Buy size, cash kept aside, a daily loss brake, Ask me first and a Stop buying button.
Your broker keys never leave it. Honest results, published.
What it does
Run one part, both, or neither. It watches the market and places the orders for you.
Daily stock part
When a stock’s 20-day average climbs above its 50-day average, it buys 1 share. When it drops back below, it sells.
24/7 part
It trades crypto at any hour and 50 US stocks outside normal hours, about $1,000 a buy. A trading model decides what to buy.
Memory
Both parts keep a record of every call, check it once the result is in, and relearn each week from what went wrong.
Every buy, sell and skip is saved on your computer, so nothing it decided is forgotten.
Once the result is in, each call is graded: did it make money, and by how much.
Every week its models retrain on the latest results, misses included. The longer it runs, the more of its own calls it learns from.
The daily filter only acts after passing a test on results it hasn’t seen. Until then it watches. It hasn’t passed yet.
Learning isn’t a promise of better results, and it can still lose money. How it learns
How it works
No coding and no server. Just your Windows computer.
Sign up with your email. Your license key is waiting on your account page.
Download the app, paste your license key, then add your free Alpaca paper keys.
Leave your computer on and awake at the US market open. It does the rest.
Results
In a 10-year replay of exactly how the daily part trades, it made about 11.8% a year. The S&P 500 made 14.9%.
The replay uses today’s list of stocks, which leaves out companies that later failed. So real results would likely be lower. Past results don’t predict future ones, and it can lose money.
Plans

It can, and it can lose money. In a 10-year replay the daily part made about 7% a year on its own, or 11.8% with spare cash in the S&P 500 fund, while the S&P 500 made 14.9%. Its drops were smaller on its own and as deep with the fund. See the results. Try it on paper and judge for yourself.
Yes. It saves every call, grades it once the result is known, and retrains each week on what happened, its own misses included. Learning doesn’t guarantee better results: the daily filter only acts once it passes a test on results it hasn’t seen, and so far it hasn’t. See the results.
It needs a Windows computer that’s on at the US market open (9:00 AM New York time), and for the 24/7 part, all the time. If you’d rather not leave yours on, run it on a cloud computer you rent.
Anything it bought stays in your account. To wind down, press Stop buying: it makes no new buys and sells each holding when its rule says, then tells you it’s safe to quit.

Not unless you choose to. It trades on paper by default. Real money needs the Pro plan, your own live Alpaca keys and a typed confirmation in the app.
Nobody can promise that. In a 10-year replay the daily part made less than the S&P 500, and real results would likely be lower. It can lose money.
