A powerful trading protocol enables sharing Strategies and collaborative development.
No need to trust third parties with your funds, your exchange API keys or your Strategies.
Stage 2: Evolving Intelligence
Competition & Collaboration drive a relentless evolutionary process

A global collective creates AlgorithmsRefers to trading algorithms; pieces of software automating trading Strategies. → unparalleled potential for collective intelligence!
Algorithms participate in CompetitionsRefers to trading competitions; events in which Algorithms and human traders compete to determine the top performers under a given set of rules.Learn more about Competitions... for prize money and reputation → shift in incentives!
After each Competition, Algorithms are open-sourced → collective knowledge levelled upwards!
The collective improves the best Algorithms and puts them to compete again → rapid evolution!
Stage 3: Making Intelligence Accessible
As the network grows, intelligence is put at the service of all people

Constant evolution guarantees the prompt replacement of Algorithms that lose their edge.
We started out as a group of friends.
We'd had enough of making millions for banks, and saw the opportunity to join forces to create technology that would benefit us instead.
The core idea was to automate our own crypto-trading. Then people started joining us, and we realized we needed to broaden our focus...
Our current mindset is to allow everyone to benefit, particularly those willing to participate in pooling the group's collective knowledge, and help build the tools to produce the most performant intelligence.

Roadmap
The Path to Reorganizing Trading Intelligence
Project Kick-off: August 2017.
The Superalgos ProjectAn open community together with its body of work, implementing a framework to enable a superior trading intelligence evolving within an open global collaboration of humans and machines, at the service of all people. stated with founder Luis Fernando Molina, a visionary entrepreneur, systems architect, with a track record in fintech developing mission-critical systems for banks. Together with his brother Julian, they set up a Core Team that helped deliver an MVP by October 2018.
The story of the inception of the project was documented by the brothers in a series of two articles published in Hacker Noon: Superalgos & The Trading Singularity, and Superalgos: Building a Trading Supermind.
Minimum Viable Product: Delivered, October 2018.
The MVP was delivered in pre-alpha stage in October 2018, consisting of a platform enabling running bots in the cloud and on the browser, in live trading, competition and backtesting modes. It included running basic competitions, handling users, teams and API exchange keys.
It also included several bots, with a sensor connected to Poloniex, several indicators and a trader. The platform featured a visualization engine rendering bots' actions and datasets over a graphic timeline. Debugging of code and strategies over the timeline was done directly in the browser.
Superalgos Platform: Imminent Pre-Release!
Superalgos is pre-releasing a suite of open source tools and the infrastructure that allows traders to automate StrategiesA set of actions occurring in stages, designed to achieve a specific goal within a broader plan, via executing trades. In the context of the Superalgos Platform, Strategies are designed with the Strategy Designer, a module available within the charts (click CHARTS in the Superalgos Platform menu). Strategies may be turned into Algorithms—trading bots able to trade live—by using the Clones Module). and deploy them as AlgorithmsRefers to trading algorithms; pieces of software automating trading Strategies. which may trade live, directly within the user account at the ExchangeA trading platform for crypto-assets. While Competitions, Algorithms and the Marketplace run on the Superalgos Network, the actual trading occurs directly at Exchanges..
This is a pre-release in alpha stage. As such, you should expect rough edges and several blatant limitations on top of the expected instability you may find in a product that is still in development.
The main features are:
Free to use.
Trustless deployment.
Virtually no coding required.
Visually debug and optimize Strategies.
Backtest and forward test simulation plotting trades over the charts.
Once happy with your Strategies, you may deploy them as an Algorithm and trade live.

The main purpose of the Superalgos Network is to remove trust requirements by allowing all stakeholders to run their own instances of the Superalgos Platform.
Anyone may download the Superalgos Node and deploy it in their own server, becoming a Node Operator.
Node Operators may run the software for their own use or offer a hosted solution for users who chose to trust the operator (with their Algorithms' code and / or Exchange API Keys).
Superalgos Nodes work mostly on a stand-alone, independent basis in terms of their core activities, but may speak with each other to consume data and services from other nodes, and to relay relevant network information.
The data and services offered among nodes may be black-boxed (offered on an input / output basis, without revealing how the output is obtained) and sold for micro fees, payable in ALGO TokensThe ALGO Token is the medium of exchange within the ALGO Ecosystem by which stakeholders transfer value in exchange for products or services.
