Generate a Strategy with AI

Published Jun 22, 2026 · Updated Jul 26, 2026

Alphafox’s AI strategy builder turns a plain-language chat prompt into a runnable crypto trading strategy you can backtest and paper trade — no coding required. Better prompts, better strategies; this page shows how to write and refine them.

The prompt formula

Generate a [symbol] strategy. Use [interval] candles. Enter when [entry condition]. Exit when [exit condition]. Risk control: [stop loss / position limit].

Example:

Generate a BTCUSDT trend strategy. Use 1-hour candles. Go long when the close breaks above the 20-period MA with rising volume; exit below the MA or after a 2% loss. Conservative parameters.

Idea still fuzzy? Switch to interview mode—the AI asks key questions first and first drafts get much better.

Iterating

Wait for validation

Failures self-repair. No backtests until it passes.

Cross-check

Entry, exit, risk—as you intended? Parameters easy to tune?

One change per round

“Only change the stop loss to 2%, keep the rest.” Then check the version diff.

Backtest

See Run a Backtest.

Rolling back deletes messages and backtest records after that version.
