Quick answers about AlphaFlowSeven's AI trading council, paper trading, pricing, and the platform's data infrastructure.
Yes. New users get up to three AI councils — typically on BTC, ETH, and SOL — completely free. No credit card required. You only pay if you scale beyond the free tier, and even then billing is usage-based rather than a subscription.
No. AF7 is a paper-trading platform. Every signal is executed against simulated capital so you can stress-test strategies without risking real money. There is no on-exchange execution and no exchange account is required.
Each of the six agents in a council can run on a different model. Supported providers are Anthropic Claude (Sonnet, Opus, Haiku), OpenAI (GPT-4o and the GPT-5 family), Google Gemini (2.5 Flash and 2.5 Pro), xAI (Grok 4), DeepSeek (V3.2), and Moonshot AI (Kimi K2.6).
Three reasoning tiers. Tier 1 — Technical, Momentum, and Risk analysts — read the market in parallel. Tier 2 — Bull and Bear advocates — build the strongest case for each direction from Tier 1 findings. Tier 3 — the Lead Trader — synthesizes everything plus its own last four prior decisions and renders the final BUY / SELL / HOLD / CLOSE call with a confidence score.
Configurable per council. Common cadences are 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 1 day. Between full council meetings, a lightweight "check-in" mode runs the Lead Trader on its own at a shorter interval for moment-to-moment HOLD / CLOSE decisions within the directional envelope set by the last full meeting.
A full meeting runs all six agents across three tiers. A check-in runs only the Lead Trader, briefed with the standing guidance from the last full meeting plus the latest market data, to catch moment-to-moment changes that don't warrant a full re-deliberation.
Live OHLC streams from Binance International over WebSocket, with automatic Kraken fallback after three failed connections or a region block (HTTP 451). REST backfills cover any gaps. RSI, ADX, +DI, -DI, and ATR are computed on the same timeframe the council is configured for.
A freshness guard fails the council run loudly if the newest OHLC candle for the requested (ticker, interval) is more than three interval-lengths old. Stale data never reaches the agents — the run is marked failed and the next scheduled run picks up once data is flowing again.
Any pair supported by Binance International or Kraken. The free tier ships with curated councils on BTC, ETH, and SOL; paid users can spin up councils on any pair and timeframe combination.
Each position carries a take-profit percentage and a trailing-stop percentage. The trailing stop ratchets in the favorable direction only — it never moves against the position. Optional emergency stops kill the position regardless of trailing-stop state. Position monitoring runs every 60 seconds.
Accuracy depends on the configured agents, models, and market conditions — there is no fixed number. The Council Evaluator runs an LLM auditor over a council's recent decisions and proposes prompt edits, so you can iterate. AF7 publishes every paper-trade outcome in the dashboard, including losing trades.
Yes. Every completed run is stored as an AICouncilExecution row with the final decision, confidence score, agent responses, and links to any paper trades it generated. Run the Evaluator to get an LLM-generated assessment with recommended prompt changes.
Four: AI Council decisions (Lead Trader output), candle pattern matches, grid-level crossings, and external TradingView webhooks. All four sources route through the same execution pipeline, so position management is identical regardless of the source.
Yes. Every model — strategies, councils, positions, signals — is scoped to your user via a tenant system that auto-injects user_id on insert. Other users cannot see your configurations, decisions, or trades.
Account top-ups are processed in-app. See the Account page once logged in. Costs are debited per council run, per check-in, and per evaluation, based on the provider's per-token rate plus a small platform margin.
The fastest way to evaluate AF7 is to sign up and run a council yourself — it's free for three pairs, takes a couple of minutes, no card required.
