The Guy Who Let ChatGPT Trade for Him — and Somehow It Worked

You know how everyone says, “Don’t let AI touch your Money”?
Well, someone on Reddit decided to ignore that.

He deposited $400 into Robinhood, fed ChatGPT a massive amount of trading data, and instructed it to select his option trades.
Ten days later: every single trade was a winner.

Not Your Average “AI Trading Bot”

This wasn’t one of those sketchy “AI auto traders.” The guy actually created a research workflow.

Every morning, he uploads spreadsheets full of data that traders typically obsess over — earnings, P/E ratios, option chains, RSI, even foot traffic data from apps like Placer.ai.

Then he asks ChatGPT to behave as if it were the Head of Options Research at a leading quant fund.
The prompt he uses? It’s absurd. Imagine it as something Goldman Sachs would secure behind 14 layers of security clearance.

It tells the AI to:

  • Filter for trades with at least 65% probability of profit
  • Keep losses under 0.5% of total capital
  • Spread across different sectors
  • Balance out risk metrics like delta and vega
