Three Execution Modes

TradeExecutor.ai offers three distinct execution modes so you can choose the level of automation that fits your trading style. Move between modes at any time — manual intervention always takes precedence.

Optional Confirmation-Based Entry Mode

For traders who want an extra layer of control, confirmation mode requires you to manually approve each entry signal before the system executes the trade. Exits remain fully automated to ensure risk management protocols are always followed.

How Trades Are Executed

You select the symbols you want to trade and explicitly enable automation per symbol. Once enabled and while TradeStation is running, TradeExecutor.ai continuously evaluates predefined conditions and places trades automatically when those conditions are met. If conditions are not met, no trades occur.

Inactivity is normal and expected. The strategy only acts when conditions align with your predefined rules.

Per-Symbol Configuration

Strategy settings can be tailored per symbol, allowing execution behavior and risk parameters to be adjusted without affecting other instruments. Automation permissions are granted per symbol, allowing you to proceed at your own pace.

Safety and Override Controls

You can disable automation per symbol or shut down TradeStation Desktop entirely at any time. When automation is disabled, no new positions will be opened, but existing positions will remain open.

To fully exit all open positions, you must manually close them within TradeStation. This can be done immediately using two mouse clicks.

Automation cannot restart on its own. If TradeStation is restarted, you are explicitly prompted to re-enable automation. Nothing resumes without your permission.

One-Time Licensing

Pay once. Own the software. No recurring monthly subscriptions. TradeExecutor.ai runs entirely inside TradeStation Desktop on Windows or macOS. TradeStation must be running, connected, and granted execution permission for automation to occur.
