AI-powered strategy workshop · HAL intelligence
YOUR STRATEGY
IS IN THE SHOP.
A backtester tells you what happened. Backtest Mechanic investigates why. Build a trading strategy, inspect every trade, diagnose weaknesses, test controlled repairs, and find out whether the improvements actually hold up.

SPECIALTY BOT COMPATIBILITY · STRATEGY RESEARCH
YOUR BOT. OUR TEST BENCH.
Already using one of our specialty trading bots? Backtest Mechanic lets you select a supported bot as your strategy target, see which indicators are compatible, and explore changes within that bot's supported feature set. Build and compare ideas, review trade diagnostics, and use HAL's research workflow to investigate possible improvements.
TrendBot indicator filtering is available as an early compatibility preview. Full native bot replay, verified bot-specific backtesting, and direct import/export of all bot settings are not yet available; a universal-engine test should not be mistaken for an exact reproduction of a specialty bot.
The next generation of strategy research
THE MARKET ISN'T STATIC. WHY SHOULD YOUR STRATEGY BE?
Move beyond rigid historical rules toward intelligent, adaptable strategies—with you deciding how much autonomy to allow.
LOCAL-FIRST TRADING RESEARCH · BUILT FOR SERIOUS TRADERS
HELLO, WORLD. YOUR TRADE ISN'T ALONE.
Your strategies are your intellectual property. Research and run compatible trading tools on your own computer—without unnecessarily publishing your indicators, experiments, or strategy logic to a hosted research platform.
YOUR MACHINE. YOUR EDGE.
Keep strategy research, settings, and chart work under your control.
LESS EXPOSURE. MORE CONTROL.
Reduce unnecessary third-party access to your research—not the visibility required to place trades.
PRECISION OVER CLUTTER.
Purpose-built charts, essential indicators, and deliberate backtests. No indicator overload.
Local operation does not hide orders from your broker, exchange, or market data providers. Security also depends on your device, network, and broker connections.
THE WORKSTATION
SERIOUS GAMERS BUILD RIGS. SERIOUS TRADERS BUILD WORKSTATIONS.
Your charts. Your strategies. Your backtests. Your bots. Your hardware. Your control.
BUILT WITH INTENT
NOT AN INDICATOR PLAYGROUND.
Purpose-built charts. Essential indicators. The information you need—without the noise.
THE TEST BENCH
WE DON’T RUN BACKTESTS FOR PRETTY NUMBERS.
Ask a question. Test a hypothesis. Diagnose the trades. Change one thing. Retest.
INTELLIGENCE WITH A JOB
DON’T JUST REJECT A STRATEGY. FIND OUT WHY.
Diagnose failure. Propose a controlled repair. Test whether the evidence supports it.
DESIGNED TO EXECUTE
FOCUSED TOOLS. REAL WORKFLOWS.
Research on the bench. Review the settings. Hand off to a compatible trading bot.
Choose your mechanic
Three ways to work on your strategy.
You decide who holds the wrench. All three modes use the same research foundation; only HAL's authority changes.
🔧
MODE 01 · DO IT YOURSELF
Backyard Mechanic
You set the strategy, choose the rules and run the raw scans. HAL doesn't change anything or initiate repair research.
- Manual strategy configuration
- Raw backtests and trade reports
- Full control over every adjustment
⚙
MODE 02 · YOU + HAL
The Garage
Work shoulder to shoulder with HAL. Discuss the diagnosis, choose the repairs, and approve each research experiment.
- HAL-generated repair suggestions
- Your ideas and manual overrides
- Approval before experiments
▥
MODE 03 · HAL TAKES THE LEAD
Send It to the Factory
Hand HAL the research assignment. It investigates, experiments and reports within the limits you approve.
- Structured automated research cycles
- Experiment and resource limits
- No automatic live deployment
