How the strategy works
No black box. CurmyBot runs one transparent, rules-based strategy — the same rules for everyone, applied to your account with the risk settings you choose. Here is the whole idea, in plain language.
Read the market's mood
Each day the engine classifies the overall market — trending, choppy, or stressed — using the S&P 500's long-term trend and the VIX volatility index. The mood sets how aggressive the strategy is allowed to be: in a stressed market it automatically holds fewer, smaller positions and stops opening trend trades entirely.
Two ways in, both time-tested styles
Dip buying: when a stock in a long-term uptrend has a sharp short-term pullback, the strategy buys the dip and exits on the bounce — usually within days. Momentum: once a week it ranks the watchlist by 6-month strength and holds the leaders while they keep leading, rotating out when they fade.
The exit is decided before the entry
Every position gets a protective stop before the order is placed, sized from that day's volatility and anchored there — a later volatility spike never loosens it. Momentum positions also trail a stop upward as they rise. How much one trade can risk is your setting, enforced server-side.
AI as a second opinion — never the decider
Before an entry, Claude AI may review the setup against current conditions and veto it. The AI never invents a trade, never sizes one, and if it is unavailable the deterministic rules simply proceed. Everything it does is explained in your activity feed.
Markets involve risk of loss. CurmyBot is software you control, not investment advice; results depend on markets and the settings you choose.
