TRADE
Autonomous · Bounded · Provable

Aiden trades a $100 pocket. It can never touch the main portfolio.

Most agentic trading demos show you what the AI can do. This one shows you what it can't. SPCX and Ken's core holdings are read-only in the execution adapter itself — not by a prompt, not by a policy doc, but by code that refuses the call before it ever reaches E*TRADE. Every other order still needs a live broker preview before it's real.

The thesis

AI should not just chase trades. It should protect capital boundaries.

A2A Trade separates Ken's main account from Aiden's autonomous pocket: market brief, protected-holding watch, strategy generation, risk checks, broker preview, governed execution, and post-trade reporting — each voiced by a GPT-5.6 agent so every decision reads like a human desk, not a black box.

Governed execution

Ken protects the main account. Aiden operates the pocket.

This is not reckless auto-trading. Aiden proposes, the policy engine validates, E*TRADE previews, and execution only happens inside the Aiden Pocket authorization and outside protected main-account holdings.
