NOFX is an open-source trading terminal where the strategy is a language model. Each trader runs a continuous loop — read market structure, decide, execute, record the reasoning — while a Go runtime clamps every order to hard risk limits the model cannot override.

Traders compose freely: any model, any of nine exchanges, any strategy. Run several side by side and compare them on a public leaderboard by realized return. Everything runs on your own machine; exchange credentials are encrypted at rest and never leave it.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NoFxAiOS/nofx/main/install.sh | bash

The terminal opens at http://127.0.0.1:3000.

First run

1. Register — the first account becomes the owner of the instance.
2. Follow the guided launch: put $1+ USDC (Base network) in the AI fee wallet it creates for you, then connect Hyperliquid and deposit $12+ USDC to trade with.
3. Start Autopilot. The AI scans the market every few minutes and trades on its own; every decision appears on the dashboard as it happens. Stop it anytime with one click.

The model proposes. The runtime disposes.

Decisions come from a language model reading live market structure — candles, EMA/MACD/RSI/ATR/Bollinger, open interest, net flow, signal rankings. Execution does not.

Every order passes through limits enforced in code, outside the model's reach:

Position limits	Max concurrent positions, notional capped as a ratio of equity, one position per symbol
Leverage clamps	Hard caps applied at order-sizing time, independent of what the model requests
Exchange-side protection	Stop-loss and take-profit placed on the exchange immediately after every entry
Drawdown auto-close	Profitable positions that give back too much from their peak are closed
Trade throttling	Minimum hold times, per-symbol re-entry cooldowns, per-cycle and per-hour entry limits
Safe mode	Repeated model failures block new entries until the model recovers
Launch preflight	Model access, wallet funds, strategy, and exchange balances verified before a trader may start

Each decision is stored with the model's full reasoning. There is no position without a paper trail.

Terminal

Autopilot	Guided launch: fund, connect, deposit, start — with server-side preflight throughout
Strategy Studio	Style presets, coin universes, indicators, leverage, entry confidence, custom prompts
Competition	Public leaderboard ranked by realized return, each entry attributed to its model
Dashboard	Live positions, orders, statistics, and the reasoning behind every decision

Models

Eight providers with your own keys — DeepSeek, OpenAI, Claude, Qwen, Gemini, Grok, Kimi, MiniMax — including custom endpoints and model names.

Or no keys at all: Claw402 meters model usage per call in USDC over the x402 protocol. A wallet on Base replaces every API key.

Provider	Access
Claw402	Pay-as-you-go AI models with official discount

Markets

Crypto perpetuals on all nine exchanges. On Hyperliquid, the same runtime also trades tokenized US equities, commodities, indices, FX, and pre-IPO perps — TSLA, NVDA, GOLD, SPX, EUR, OPENAI — alongside crypto.
