Hi Hunters! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Iโ€™m Soonbeom, founder of HeyTraders.

The Story: I previously worked as a quantitative researcher at a crypto trading firm. Back then, I could focus on finding alpha because a dedicated engineering team handled the data and infrastructure.

But when I tried to trade my own strategies as an independent quant, I hit a wall. I spent 90% of my time building data pipelines and backtesting engines from scratch, and only 10% on actual trading. I realized: "Retail traders don't lack ideas. They lack the infrastructure."

The Solution: Thatโ€™s why I built HeyTraders. Itโ€™s a Personal AI Quant that integrates research, backtesting, and validation into one conversation.

What you can do right now (MVP):

๐Ÿ” Ask Anything: "Why is Bitcoin moving today?" Our agent summarizes the key drivers.

๐Ÿ“Š Verify Your Ideas: Just describe your strategy in plain English (e.g., "Buy ETH if RSI < 30"). We run the backtest and show you the win rate in seconds.

Roadmap (Coming Soon): ๐Ÿšง Automated Execution: Currently, we provide the trade signals and validation. Direct broker connection for auto-execution is our next priority.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Mobile App: To receive real-time push notifications for the signals generated by your agent, download the app here

Note: Your chat and strategies are fully encrypted and we never train on your data unless you opt-in.

Iโ€™d love your feedback: For those trading soloโ€”what is the biggest pain point in trading crypto?

Thanks for checking us out! ๐Ÿš€

instant backtesting is great, but slippage is the real killer in crypto. does the simulation engine account for exchange fees and liquidity, or is it just raw price data?

Huge congrats on the launch! ๐Ÿš€ Turning natural language into verifiable crypto quant strategies is a powerful unlock for serious traders on PH.โ€‹

@zeiki_yuย Hey Zeiki, thanks! We believe serious traders should focus on finding Alpha, not fixing bugs. Hope this helps you save time!

Liang Tang

Congrats for the launch. Curious if this is for short-term trading or long-term investing. Does it consider company fundamentals and news?

Soonbeom Hong

@liang_tangย Thanks for the question, Liang.

  • Fundamentals:ย Currently, we areย crypto-first. While we don't parse company fundamentals like corporate balance sheets yet, weย can handle market fundamentals (News, Narratives, Macro). We plan to expand to Stocks later and integrateย company-specific data (Earnings, P/E).

  • Time Horizon:ย The AI is agnostic, but sinceย Crypto has a relatively short historyย compared to Stocks, it is statistically difficult to validate multi-year investing strategies. Therefore, our current engine works best forย short-to-mid-termย horizons.

The 'instant backtesting' part is what caught my eye because I always wonder if my ideas would have actually worked in the past. I wonder how far back the data goes does it test against years of market history or just the last few months of trends?

Soonbeom Hong

@theaxxย Hey Thea. I appreciate your interest.

We fetch historical data directly via Exchange API (Binance by default), so you can test against the entire history of a coin since its listing date.

One thing to note:ย while you can access years of history, the backtesting speed depends on theย Timeframe. For example, downloading and processing 1m candles for several years will naturally take more time.

Instantly validate ideas is its biggest selling point. Being able to quickly view a strategyโ€™s historical performance has greatly boosted my willingness to experiment with new ideas. That said, are the backtesting parameter settings (e.g., transaction fees, slippage) flexible enough to adapt to the actual market conditions of different cryptocurrency trading pairs?

Minseom Oh
Hello, @qwang_dazee ๐Ÿ‘‹ Weโ€™re glad to hear that our service has helped boost your motivation to explore and experiment with trading ideas. Currently, our system allows users to customize backtesting conditions directly through chat. If no specific request is made, the backtest runs with our default fee and slippage settings. However, if a user specifies something like โ€œset the transaction fee to 0.05โ€, the system automatically adjusts the existing parameters and runs the backtest accordingly. Please feel free to explore the platform, and if you run into any inconveniences or have suggestions, we actively improve the product as quickly as possible. Youโ€™re always welcome to reach out to us via our website, LinkedIn, or Telegram. Thanks again for your interest, and happy trading!๐Ÿ’ฐ

The idea is interesting, but in this case my first question is: โ€œHow accurate are the algorithmโ€™s recommendations, and can it make mistakes?โ€ The answers determine profits or losses.

Minseom Oh
Hello, @mykyta_semenov_ One of the key differences between our service and many others is that algorithmic recommendations are not our primary mission. Our core goal is to build a platform that allows users to quickly and easily validate their own trading ideas, and eventually connect those validated strategies to real trading. While our system may assist in the strategy creation process โ€” for example, by helping gather market data or suggesting potential instruments to explore โ€” these features are designed strictly to support the userโ€™s own decision-making, not to replace it. Our core pipeline is simple and intentional: User-defined strategy โ†’ Validation โ†’ Execution We believe this approach leads to more transparent, controllable, and trustworthy outcomes for traders. Thank you for your thoughtful question.

Completing the entire process from research and validation to gaining confidence in one single platform โ€“ without switching between multiple software tools โ€“ has significantly improved efficiency. I wonder if there are plans to integrate simple paper trading or strategy monitoring features in the future, to make the whole journey from idea to simulated practice more complete?

Minseom Oh
Hello, @ironliuyi Weโ€™re glad to hear that our platform has been helpful to you. Yes, we do have plans to introduce paper trading and strategy monitoring in the future, and to further expand the platform so users can eventually take their strategies all the way to live trading. That said, since this is a domain that directly involves real capital, our current top priority is to ensure that the tools we provide are highly reliable and trustworthy. Before moving into paper trading and live execution, weโ€™re focusing on building a solid foundation that allows traders like you to validate a wide range of strategies accurately and without friction. Once this foundation is in place, we plan to expand step by step into paper trading, monitoring, and ultimately live trading. Weโ€™ll do our best to deliver the paper trading and monitoring features youโ€™re looking for as soon as possible, and weโ€™d truly appreciate your continued use and feedback along the way. Wishing you a great day, and thank you again for your support. ๐Ÿ‘

Interesting idea, would love to know if there will be a market for strategies later on, or even combo things together for better risk control

Soonbeom Hong

@david_chen37ย Thanks Siyuan, great ideas.

  • Marketplace:ย Yes, we envision an ecosystem where users can monetize proven alphas via aย Marketplace and copy trading.

  • Combos:ย This is essential for risk management. We are planning a "Portfolio Backtest" feature to analyzeย correlationsย between strategies and see how they hedge each other.
