Why systems win

The 1% don't trade better.
They trade with a system.

Your strategy probably works. The problem is the human running it. Decades of research keep finding the same thing: the gap between a good plan and a good outcome is emotion.

−6.5%/yr

Overtrading is expensive

The most active traders netted 11.4% a year against a 17.9% market. They traded themselves out of returns.

Barber & Odean, “Trading Is Hazardous to Your Wealth,” 2000

Losses hurt twice as much

A loss feels roughly twice as powerful as the same-size gain, which is why good plans die at the exact moment they're needed most.

Kahneman & Tversky, prospect theory

You sell winners, keep losers

The disposition effect: investors take small gains too early and let losses run, the precise opposite of a sound system.

Odean, “Are Investors Reluctant to Realize Their Losses?”, 1998

A rule-based system doesn't feel fear at the bottom or greed at the top. SODA is how you become the disciplined trader you keep meaning to be.

How it works

Build it. Backtest it. Deploy it.

Four steps from an idea in your head to a system that trades while you sleep.

01

Build your strategy

Bring your TradingView / Pine Script, start from a vetted template, or compose rules in plain language. Entries, exits, sizing, filters: your logic, exactly as you'd describe it.

  • Pine Script & TradingView import
  • Pre-built strategy templates
  • No-code rule builder
strategy.pine
strategy("RSI Mean Reversion", overlay=true)

rsi   = ta.rsi(close, 14)
// buy oversold, exit on mean revert
if rsi < 30 and regimeOk
    strategy.entry("long", long)
if rsi > 55
    strategy.close("long")

stopLoss   = 2.0   // ATR trailing
vixFilter  = 28    // stand aside if fear spikes
02

Backtest against real data

Not a toy simulation. Your rules run across two decades of real market history, including the crashes. See exactly how the system would have behaved when it mattered.

Optimize with SODA Intelligence

Our engine stress-tests your parameters and surfaces what's actually helping, and what's curve-fit noise. You get suggestions, you stay in control.

  • Parameter sweeps & walk-forward tests
  • Overfitting & robustness checks
  • Plain-English “why” for every change

Widening your exit RSI from 55 → 62 would have cut whipsaw trades by 31% and raised Sharpe to 2.05, with no added drawdown.

Built in risk control

Institutional discipline, on by default.

The guardrails desks pay for, baked into every strategy you deploy.

Trailing & hard stops

Every position carries an ATR trailing stop and a hard line in the sand. Losses are capped by the system, not by your nerves.

VIX regime filter

When fear spikes past your threshold, SODA stands aside instead of forcing trades into chaos.

Position sizing

Fixed-fractional or volatility-targeted sizing keeps any single trade from sinking the account.

Credit-spread automation

Define width, delta and DTE once; SODA opens, manages and rolls the spread on Tastytrade.

Always-on execution

The system watches every bar and submits your order the instant a rule fires, through the open, the lunch lull, and the 3am candle you'd have slept through.

Your money, your control

SODA never holds a cent of your capital.

We connect to your brokerage through encrypted, trade-scoped keys. We can place the trades your strategy calls for, and nothing else. No withdrawals. No transfers. Ever.

  • API keys encrypted at rest and in transit
  • Trade-only scope, so withdrawals are impossible
  • Paper-trade as long as you like before going live
  • Pause or kill any strategy instantly

FAQ

The questions every trader asks first.

Can SODA withdraw or move my money?

No. We connect through trade-scoped API keys that can place orders and nothing else. Your capital stays in your own brokerage account, and withdrawals are technically impossible through SODA.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You can import a TradingView / Pine Script strategy, start from a template, or build rules with the no-code builder. If you do write Pine Script, it just works.

Which brokers are supported?

Alpaca (stocks & options) and Tastytrade (great for credit spreads) today. Interactive Brokers and Coinbase are coming soon.

Is the backtest real or simulated?

Inside SODA, backtests run against real historical market data, including major drawdowns. The interactive demo on this page uses simulated price history purely to illustrate the experience.

Can I paper trade before risking real money?

Yes, and you should. Every strategy can run in paper mode for as long as you want. Flip to live in one click when you trust it.

What does it cost and can I cancel?

Start free with unlimited backtests. Paid plans include a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and you can cancel anytime.
