Gopher

AI-powered backtesting and strategy evolution for cryptocurrency trading.

Gopher uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to autonomously discover, test, and evolve profitable trading strategies. Instead of manually designing rules, Gopher's AI agent continuously generates and refines strategies based on real market data.

Developed by Moon Laboratories Inc.
