Quantitative Trading & Education for Investors Who Want Discipline, Not Guesswork
Learn Practice in Sandbox Graduate to Bot Trading
myMTree offers software bots that scan US stocks and options and execute trades automatically, under rules you can see. Everyday people and non-traders can start on a paper sandbox account with no real money at stake, so you can practise and build confidence with bots before anything is real. Learn by trading.
Step 1: Education & foundation
Start from ground zero. Build real market literacy.
You don't need a finance background. Master market mechanics, options, and quant fundamentals in an isolated paper sandbox with zero capital at risk.
You don't need to be an expert, watch screens all day, or risk your savings to learn this.
Those are the three reasons people tell us they stay out of the market. myMTree is built to remove them one at a time โ teach you the mechanics, let you practise where being wrong costs nothing, and put the risk rules in the system rather than in your willpower.
"It's too technical. I'd need to know too much."
You learn by applying, not by memorising. The Academy takes you from market basics through options and quant fundamentals, and the platform scores the three decisions that actually matter: what to invest in, when to enter, and how long to hold. You see the reasoning behind every score, so each trade teaches you something.
"I don't have time to watch the markets all day."
Bots do the watching. They scan, score and stage trades against rules you can read, and they keep running while you are at work. You review what they staged, adjust them to your own taste, and nothing is placed without your sign-off. Watching them work is itself how most people learn the fastest.
"I'm afraid of losing my capital."
Every account starts on a paper ledger with no money at stake โ real portfolio performance, real mistakes, no cost. When you do go live, position limits, profit-taking and exit rules are enforced by the system rather than left to your nerve in a bad week. Trading still carries risk; the difference is that the rules do not forget.
New to this? Start by reading.
A plain-language guide to how shares work, how beginners lose money without noticing, and the three decisions โ what, when, how long โ inside every trade. Fifteen minutes, no jargon, nothing to buy.
Every account starts on a simulated paper desk. Every order stops at a human.
What a tree already knows
Traditional finance teaches emotional prediction. Nature practices structural adaptation. The difference is that a structure keeps working on the day your judgement doesn't.
Harvest in abundance
A tree fruits when the season allows. Positions clearing +5% over cost are plucked automatically and the gain banked โ mechanically, at the moment it ripens, not when someone finally feels brave enough.
Prune what is decaying
Dead leaves come off before they rot the branch. Anything โ3% under cost is cut, and the loss lands on the ledger with its reason attached. No averaging down, no hoping, no story.
Keep the roots deep
Trees don't gamble their reserves. Cash is an active position. Every options bracket is defined-risk. Futures margin is hard-capped at $1,000. The trunk survives the winter.
Sentinels never sleep
Detectors publish the instant a crossing becomes true โ a VWAP flip on a micro future wakes the bot on push. Nothing polls a timer hoping to notice in time.
The whole system compounds
Fruit banked โ reinvested. Dead weight pruned โ capital freed. Roots deepened โ drawdowns survived. That's not a strategy, it's a growth loop.
Five pathways โ pick where you actually are
Each pathway has a free tier you can use before you create anything. Read what each one does first โ nothing below asks you to sign in.
Passive Saver
Autopilot Garden. Twenty-one personas compete in paper; you set a risk dial and judge them on receipts. The whole book rendered as a garden instead of a wall of option chains.
Active Scalper
Reactive Sentinels. A trigger board that shows its own win rates, backtest-gated so a setup must earn the right to fire. Flat by 3:55 PM ET, enforced by the engine.
Risk Officer
Portfolio Audit. Scan up to 20 symbols with no account at all. Four-vector diagnostic per holding, overlap and crowding detection, and every n/a naming its reason.
Cohort Student
myMTree Academy. Twenty-four authored weeks across four tracks on a live desk โ market mechanics, stock selection, options fundamentals, and risk and position sizing, with a $100k paper capstone graded on receipts rather than vibes.
Allocator
Fund Console. Multi-tenant workspaces with hard isolation โ every book schema-separated at the database level, enforced by the engine rather than filtered in application code.
Why this is different
Every order stops at a human. Bots research, score, stage and explain. A person approves. That gate is the product โ an autonomous system that can place an order you didn't sanction isn't a feature, it's a liability someone sold you as one.
The fees are in the math. Most backtests flatter you by ignoring commissions. We model the drag before you trade and refuse setups where it eats the edge. Silence is a bug, not a feature. Delivered or rejected, every routing decision is written down with its reason. A signal nobody wanted and a signal the pipeline dropped must never look the same. When a number can't be computed honestly the desk says n/a and explains why โ it doesn't print a comfortable zero. No black box. Three models, their scores, and the spread between them โ visible. The dissent ceiling is a number you can see and tune. Discipline you can't override on a bad day. The harvest rule, the prune floor, the margin cap, the 3:55 sweep โ all enforced by the engine. The whole point is that they hold when your judgment doesn't. You start on paper. Always. Live routing isn't a toggle. It requires a genuine closed-trade record with non-negative expectancy, and then a person reviews the request.

myMTree is a research and education platform. Nothing here is investment advice, and no past or projected performance is shown or implied. Options and futures involve substantial risk of loss and are not suitable for every investor. New accounts are simulated.
