What it does
AutoHedge uses several AI agents, each with one job, to run a trading process. A director agent comes up with ideas, a quant agent studies the numbers, a risk agent decides position sizes, and an execution agent places orders.
Its makers describe it as an autonomous agent hedge fund that trades on your behalf. The README says it currently supports full automatic trading on Solana, a cryptocurrency network, with more exchanges planned.
Automated trading carries real financial risk, and the software can place orders with real money.
