Fellow investor @qwq built a fully autonomous AI trading Agent called "Flint" in his spare time: Claude decides whether to act, code handles risk control and order placement, and the whole thing runs unattended on a single Mac mini. In July it completed 69 trades; of 124 intents, 31 were blocked by its own risk gate. Paper-trading return: about 3%.

Earnings, valuation percentile, institutional holdings shifts, news catalysts — the AI lines them all up in a single view, narrows eight candidates down to two (one offensive, one defensive), and then goes one layer deeper: which contract, and how to pace each tranche.

A fellow investor open-sourced an options workstation built on Longbridge API — quotes, volatility, dealer exposure and more, cross-checked on one screen. Institutional-grade analysis, now on your own desk.
