Crypto never sleeps. Neither do your agents.
You asked for it. We built it.
You can now deploy agents on Conviction that monitor and trade crypto 24/7.

Today we're launching futures on Conviction.
Just type:
"Buy crude oil futures when there's news of a Middle East conflict or an OPEC production cut. Sell after 3 days."
Your agent backtests it, monitors the market, and trades for you.
22 CME products. 24/5. no code.
Trade futures with agents. Link in bio.
Prediction markets aren't stocks. And trading them is a whole different game.
Oscar Levy breaks down what makes execution in prediction markets different.
Prediction markets are now live on Conviction.
A look back at the Alpaca × Conviction Trading Hackathon. @AlpacaHQ @oscar_lvy

Huge thanks to everyone who came out and built with us!

Options trading is still painfully manual.
Watching charts on TradingView. Scanning options chains. Setting price alerts. Managing exits.
Today, we're launching Options Trading on Conviction.
What if trading options was as simple as describing your strategy? Conviction turns your idea into a trading agent that monitors the market, selects contracts, and executes when your conditions are met.

Options trading is now available on Conviction, with @AlpacaHQ as a supported brokerage for deploying options strategies
The results are in.
After two weeks of paper trading, the Alpaca × Conviction Trading Hackathon officially has a winner.
Congratulations to Swaraj Banerjee for taking first place and the $2,000 Grand Prize.
We saw some incredibly creative strategies across the competition, spanning equities, event-driven ideas, technical signals, and automated trading logic. Huge thank you to everyone who participated, tested their ideas, and pushed the platform in interesting directions.
And thank you to the Alpaca team for making this event possible. @AlpacaHQ
This was our first trading hackathon, but definitely not our last.
