How It Works

Five steps.
Nothing you have to look up.

Read the five steps below in plain words. Then read them again further down with the trading terms put back and explained, so you can follow the rest of the site.

You start on practice money, so you can do all five without a broker account and without risking anything.

In plain words

  1. 1

    Download the app and start on practice money

    Nothing is connected to a real account and nothing is at stake while you learn what the app does.

  2. 2

    Say what you are thinking about

    Type it the way you would say it out loud, or paste in a chart, a video link, or an article.

  3. 3

    Read the finished trade you get back

    It carries the price to get in, the price to get out if you are wrong, and the price to take the gain.

  4. 4

    BrokerBridge checks it against your rules

    You wrote the limits on size, money, and losses up front, and a trade that breaks one is refused.

  5. 5

    You approve it, and only then does it go out

    Nothing reaches your broker that you have not approved.

The same five steps, with the trading words

Every word below is one you will meet in the app or in the docs. Nothing here changes what the five steps do.

  1. 1

    Practice money

    The app calls this simulation, and elsewhere in trading you will see it called paper trading. Prices are real and the money is not. When you are ready for a real account, BrokerBridge sends orders to Interactive Brokers, and you keep your own account there. BrokerBridge is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Interactive Brokers.

  2. 2

    A prompt, and what it is allowed to see

    The AI reads live market data along with what you typed. You pick which AI, and you can run one on your own computer with Ollama, which means nothing you type leaves your machine.

  3. 3

    Entry, stop, and target

    The price to get in is the entry. The price to get out if you are wrong is the stop. The price to take the gain is the target. A stop order does not guarantee that price. A fast market can fill it lower. BrokerBridge sends all three together as a bracket order, so both exits are placed at the same time as the entry.

  4. 4

    Your rules

    These are fixed checks, not opinions. They cover trade size, the most you will lose in a day, how many trades can be open at once, how much sits in one industry, and how much of the account is in the market at all. A refused trade tells you which rule refused it.

  5. 5

    How you approve

    There are three settings, and what changes between them is when you approve, never whether you do. You can change the setting or stop everything at any moment. The three are listed below.

The three ways to approve

Every trade runs your rules first at all three of these. One switch stops all of them.

I approve every trade

BrokerBridge writes the trade and waits. Nothing goes to Interactive Brokers until you press approve on that exact trade.

I confirm from the alert

When the conditions you named happen, BrokerBridge alerts you and holds the trade. One tap sends it. No tap and it expires.

I approve the strategy up front

You approve one specific strategy in writing, including the money it may use, what it may trade, and the hours it may run. Every trade still runs your rules, and you can withdraw the approval at any moment.

Words the app keeps

These stay because your broker, a contract, or a piece of law depends on the exact word. Here is what each one means.

Interactive Brokers
The broker BrokerBridge sends orders to. You keep your own account. BrokerBridge is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Interactive Brokers.
IB Gateway
One of two apps Interactive Brokers ships that let other software talk to your account. Either one works. It has to be running.
stop
The price where you get out if the trade goes wrong. A stop order does not guarantee that price. A fast market can fill it lower.
target
The price where you take the gain.
bracket order
One entry order with a stop and a target attached, so both exits are placed at the same time.
drawdown
How far down you got from your best point.
Ollama
Runs an AI model on your own computer. Nothing you type leaves your machine.
OpenRouter
One bill for many AI models.
KPL
Key Price Levels, the daily levels from Young Money Investments.
