Draw a position on TradingView. Hit Alt+X. The trade is sized against your risk rules, routed to your exchange, and managed automatically. Abstract the decision making which cooks most traders (oversizing)
Rust backend. It validates every trade before it touches your exchange account, sizes positions conservatively across multiple methods, and manages exits in real time.
Overlays a panel on TradingView. Draw a position tool, hit Alt+X, done. Your risk config (how much per trade, max leverage, account limits) is pulled from the engine.
Every trade, every fill, every management decision is recorded. See what's working across setups, timeframes, and market conditions.
AI agents (Hermes, OpenClaw, pi) can trade autonomously on Testudo using the same infrastructure. A REST API for trade execution, WebSocket channels for real-time fill and risk alerts, and a journal-as-memory interface that lets agents read their own performance history. Full paper-trading sandbox included.
Cellular sheaf topology perception layer. Ingests multi-venue tick data, builds a topology graph of arbitrage and correlation edges, and streams structural signals (spread dislocation, volatility diffusion, venue health) to AI agents over gRPC. Gives agents real-time market structure awareness beyond raw OHLCV.
Lean 4 formal verification of strategy primitives. Proves properties like delta-neutrality, funding arbitrage bounds, Kelly-optimal sizing, and gambler's ruin avoidance. Ensures agent strategies are mathematically sound before they touch real capital.
The exchange backend is not a crypto trading engine — it's a general-purpose financial infrastructure platform. The adapter layer abstracts venues; everything else is venue-agnostic.
| If you swapped the adapter layer... | You'd get |
|---|---|
| Interactive Brokers / Alpaca | Equities/futures trading platform — same risk engine, same journal, same coach |
| Stripe / Braintree | Payment orchestration — risk validator screens transaction amounts instead of position sizes |
| Prediction market (Polymarket/Kalshi API) | Betting/forecasting platform — Dignitas scores become forecaster reputation |
| In-game economy (EVE-style) | Game marketplace — matching engine runs buy/sell orders for virtual items |
| DeFi protocol (Uniswap pool) | LP management agent — agent API places liquidity positions instead of trades |
| Banking fraud detection | Transaction screening — risk validator checks withdrawals against balance limits |
| SaaS feature flags | Graduated rollout — shadow/live execution becomes canary/production traffic routing |
| Supply chain | Order routing — multi-venue fabric routes purchase orders to suppliers based on health/price |
| Any LLM agent with a wallet | Autonomous economic agent — shadow-first, coach-supervised, journal-as-memory loop |
