The agentic coding harness for trading.

Plug your portfolio in with Plaid. Describe a thesis in plain English. The harness writes the code, runs the backtest, and hands you a fully tested quantitative strategy.

Layer on your knowledge graphs — newsletters, podcasts, influencers, research desks like Citrini — so the system trades with the same outside influences you already read.

Frequently asked questions

What is Button?

Button is an agentic coding harness for trading. You describe a thesis in plain English; the harness writes the strategy code, runs the backtest, and hands back a fully tested quantitative system you can deploy with one click.

How do I plug in my own data?

Plaid links your brokerage and bank accounts in seconds. The harness designs strategies against your real positions, sizing, and cash — not a hypothetical book.

What are knowledge graphs?

Knowledge graphs are the outside influences you already trust — newsletters like Citrini, macro voices on podcasts, sector specialists on Substack, sell-side research desks. The harness ingests them as live inputs so your strategies trade with the same signals you already read.

How does a thesis become a strategy?

A thesis like “long volatility around CPI prints” gets decomposed into entry rules, sizing, and exits. The harness pulls historical data, writes the code, runs walk-forward backtests, and reports Sharpe, drawdown, and regime sensitivity before you commit a dollar.

What does “fully tested” mean?

Every strategy is walk-forward backtested across multiple regimes — bull, bear, low-vol, high-vol — with out-of-sample windows and slippage and funding modeled on the real venues the strategy will route through.

What venues does Button route to?

Strategies execute through Hyperliquid for 150+ crypto perpetuals and trade.xyz for RWA perps — gold, silver, the S&P 500, NVDA, EUR/USD, and more. Everything settles in USDC, on-chain, with no custodian.

Who is Button for?

Discretionary traders who want their instincts pressure-tested before sizing up, and quants who want a faster path from idea to deployed strategy. Both groups get the same harness.

Is my data safe?

Plaid is read-only. The harness never moves money on its own — strategies execute through wallets you control, on venues that custody nothing.

How is this different from a CEX or a brokerage?

A CEX gives you an order book. A brokerage gives you a screen. Button gives you a research analyst, a quant developer, and a backtest engine — wired into your own portfolio and your own information diet.

When can I start?

Join the waitlist. Early users get hands-on onboarding to bring their first thesis through the full thesis → strategy → deploy loop.

Markets the harness can route through

Strategies built in Button can execute across 210+ perpetual futures on Hyperliquid and trade.xyz — crypto, commodities, equities, FX. The harness picks the right venue and instrument for each strategy and settles in USDC, on-chain.

A practical note on getting started. The first thesis you describe is usually narrower than it should be — and that is the right instinct. The harness builds better strategies when the thesis includes a directional view, a horizon, and at least one explicit invalidation. Start with something you would argue for over coffee, not a one-line slogan. Run the backtest, read the regime breakdown, and then decide whether to deploy at size, deploy at a fraction, or send the thesis back for another pass. The blog has onboarding, fundamentals, and risk management archives that go deeper into shaping a thesis the harness can actually act on.

A note on risk. Perpetual futures are leveraged instruments. A 1% move against a 20× long erases roughly 20% of the collateral backing that position, and Hyperliquid and trade.xyz both liquidate positions automatically once margin falls below the maintenance threshold. Funding accrues every interval at the rate displayed on the market page and compounds quickly at high leverage. Most experienced traders on these venues size well below the maximum, set explicit invalidation levels before entering, and treat the live liquidation price on the order ticket as a hard constraint rather than a hypothetical. Nothing on this page is investment advice; trading perpetual futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all users. Local laws and tax treatments around self-custodial derivatives vary by jurisdiction — readers are responsible for the rules that apply where they live.
