Autopilot & Auto Trade

How It Works

Both trade Mission Scan setups on your own connected brokerage account and share the same risk rules. Profits are not guaranteed — options can expire worthless.

01Autopilot challenges

A goal and a deadline

Pick a ladder (e.g. $200 → $1,000) and a length. Pace is tracked against trading days only.

Paced, not reckless

Ahead of pace it gets more selective; behind pace it focuses on the strongest setups only.

Protected floor

As the account grows, part of the gain is locked and can't be traded away.

Securing the goal

When the target is reached, new buys stop and positions are closed so the gain is banked.

02Auto Trade (Elite)

One switch

Turns buying and exits on together. Off stops new buys but keeps managing open plays until they close.

Only fresh, high-scoring plays

Takes Mission Scan plays that clear the entry bar, at a small fixed size per play.

Manual Hold

You can hold a play for up to 48 hours; contracts expiring today still close.

03Risk after entry

Hard stop

Exits at −25% of premium, without waiting.

Breakeven ratchet

At +12% the stop moves to entry; at +20% it locks +10%.

Bank half

Half the position is taken at +25%; the runner keeps a breakeven stop.

Stale trades

Flat, drifting positions are scratched instead of held for hours.

Cooldowns

After an exit a ticker rests 30 minutes; repeated stop-outs pause new buys.

04Overnight & conflicts

Carry only clear winners

Positions carried overnight must be up and have time left before expiry.

Data days

Before CPI, jobs or Fed mornings, positions go to cash.

Your orders win conflicts

Before a protective sell, any working sell you placed on the same contract is cancelled so the exit isn't rejected.

Keep in mind

Rules reduce risk; they don't remove it. Fast markets, gaps and wide spreads can fill exits worse than planned.
