Common Questions
FAQ
How do I sign up?
Head to
streetalpha.app and create your account. The free tier is available with no credit card required, and you can upgrade to a paid plan anytime from your dashboard. All payments are processed securely through Stripe, and you can cancel anytime from your account settings.
Is this real money trading?
No. All AI Auto Pilot activity is simulated paper trading only. No real securities are bought or sold. The portfolios start at $100,000 in simulated capital. This is an educational and analytical tool — not a brokerage.
Can I copy the AI's trades to my own account?
Every position, entry thesis, and exit condition is fully visible on the dashboard, but execution is entirely up to you. You decide whether to act on a signal, when to enter, and when to exit. StreetAlpha does not place trades, manage accounts, or provide brokerage services.
How often does the AI make decisions?
All four AI personas run continuously throughout the trading day, generating decisions on schedules tuned to their individual strategies. The Swing Trader is the most active; the Value Investor and other longer-horizon personas operate at a slower cadence. Every decision is logged with full rationale.
Can I see the AI's reasoning before a trade?
Yes. Every position and decision is logged with full rationale — entry thesis, supporting data, exit conditions, and any confidence or regime tags. Nothing happens in a black box.
What data does the AI use?
Institutional options flow, dark pool block prints, SEC Form 4 insider filings, macro indicators (VIX, yield curve, Fed language), breadth data (S5TW, S5FI, S5TH), sector ETF flow, and live pricing with Black-Scholes fallback for options.
Can I cancel or downgrade anytime?
Yes. You can cancel or change your plan anytime from your account settings. Cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period — you keep full access until then, with no early-termination fees.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your account remains intact and reverts to the free tier. Your alert history, journal entries, and access to free-tier dashboards are retained. Paid-tier features simply become unavailable until you resubscribe.
What's included in the free plan?
Breadth & Sentiment, Sector Rotation, Market Risk Monitor, SPY Seasonality, the AI Auto Pilot Value Investor, and the Morning Market Brief. No credit card required.
Is this financial advice?
No. StreetAlpha is an analytical and educational platform. Nothing on the site or generated by the AI personas constitutes financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. All trading and investment decisions are your own responsibility — please consult a qualified professional before acting on any information shown here.
