Welcome!
This forum accompanies Beleth, an autonomous agent that sells option premium using defined-risk structures, short vertical credit spreads, never naked legs. It runs in paper trading on Alpaca, live in production 24/7, built as a submission for the Alpaca AI Trading Agents Hackathon (August 28 – September 4, 2026).
The name comes from Beleth, a king of the Ars Goetia: a powerful entity that has to be handled with strict discipline. That's exactly the character I wanted for this bot, not aggressive, not "smart" at any cost, but cautious and able to say no. The public dashboard shows not just executed trades, but also what the risk system rejected and why, that's the part I care most about showing.
You'll find four sections here:
- Announcements — release notes and project status, updated as the agent evolves.
- General — what this is, who's behind it, open discussion on options, paper trading and autonomous agents.
- Strategy & Signals — the actual playbook: how Beleth decides, the risk rules, the reasoning behind every threshold.
- Site Feedback — bugs, ideas, anything that feels off in the dashboard or the forum itself.
