Why Trajectory

Built for traders who take risk seriously

Your account, your keys

OAuth only. Trajectory never stores your Alpaca credentials.

Never holds overnight

Every position is force-closed before market close. Hard constraint, not a setting.

Stop-loss on every trade

Each entry has an automatic stop-loss. You set the risk tolerance; the bot enforces it.

Real minute-bar backtests

Test on up to 12 months of real minute-level data from Alpaca's market data API.

No code required

Configure strategies, run backtests, and manage bots entirely through the UI.

8 proven intraday strategies

ORB, VWAP, Momentum, Gap & Go, Dip Reversal, EMA, Fibonacci, and Prev Day Hi/Lo.

Strategies

Every strategy. Every plan.

All 8 strategies are available on every plan - intraday only, stop-loss included, no overnight exposure.

ORB

Opening Range Breakout

Trades a breakout of the first 5-minute candle. Five exit variants.

VWAP

VWAP Reversion

Fades overextended moves away from the volume-weighted average price.

MOM

Momentum

Rides intraday momentum after a confirmed directional move.

GAP

Gap & Go

Enters gap-up or gap-down opens that continue after consolidation.

DIP

Buys sharp intraday dips in uptrending stocks.

EMA

FIB

Fibonacci

Trades retracements to key Fibonacci levels within the session range.

Watches for breakouts above the previous day's high or below its low.
