Capabilities

Everything the desk does, once it opens

This is the feature set already running in KalshiLayer, being folded into Tapeworm so signal discovery and execution sit on one dataset.

Live auto-execution

Connect your Kalshi account and open or close positions automatically — production mode, not paper-only.

Signal discovery

Follow large tape prints and short-term momentum setups with dual signal modes and trader scoring.

Smart entry filters

Implied-probability bands, liquidity gates, spread checks, fee-aware sizing, and stale-signal rejection.

Exit automation

Take-profit, stop-loss, trailing stops, source-exit mirroring, max-hold caps, and maker-first exit ladders.

Risk and safety

Conservative, Balanced, and Aggressive presets with daily loss and losing-streak circuit breakers plus a kill switch.

AI-assisted trading

Optional LLM entry gate, batch selection, auto-heal after poor runs, and natural-language strategy setup.

Performance desk

Win rate, expectancy, equity curves, working-orders view, sandbox mode, and strategy clone, export, and import.

Sandbox first

Run any strategy against the live tape without capital at risk, then promote the exact configuration to production.

The loop

From print to position to exit

Four stages, each one inspectable. Nothing about the desk is a black box you have to trust on faith.

01
Detect
A print crosses your filter
The same live tape that powers research feeds the scanner. Size, side, implied move, and trader score are evaluated the moment a trade lands.
02
Qualify
Entry gates run before capital moves
Liquidity, spread, probability band, fee impact, and signal age are all checked. Optionally an LLM gate reviews the setup in plain language.
03
Execute
Maker-first, fee-aware sizing
Orders are placed with your configured sizing rules, then tracked in a working-orders view until filled, repriced, or cancelled.
04
Manage
Exits and breakers watch the position
Take-profit, stop-loss, trailing stops, and max-hold caps run continuously. Daily loss and losing-streak breakers can halt the desk on their own.
