Automation
Translate trading ideas into automated logic with explicit rules, repeatable execution and tools designed for real operating conditions.
Josef IT applies an engineering mindset to trading automation: turning ideas into measurable systems through implementation, backtesting, execution logic and risk management tooling.
Trading automation is treated as an engineering problem. The objective is not to promise outcomes, but to build systems whose behaviour can be tested, understood and continuously improved.
Translate trading ideas into automated logic with explicit rules, repeatable execution and tools designed for real operating conditions.
Position management, entry and exit logic, safeguards and execution behaviour are considered part of the system — not an afterthought.
Use historical testing and controlled experimentation to measure behaviour, challenge assumptions and guide further development.
For several years, we have been designing, testing and operating automated trading systems across different approaches, including hedging and netting strategies.
Some systems are actively used in real market conditions, while others remain in continuous development and experimentation. The objective is not to build one definitive robot, but to continuously improve execution, risk management and adaptability.
This project started several years ago from a simple collaboration between complementary areas of experience.
A close friend brought more than a decade of trading experience, particularly around gold markets, alongside long-standing exposure to the physical gold industry through his family. I brought more than twenty years of software engineering experience.
We started combining those two perspectives: market experience on one side, engineering and automation on the other. What began as experimentation gradually became a collection of systems, tools and approaches that have evolved through years of development, testing and real-market use.
The journey has not been a straight line. Systems have changed, assumptions have been challenged, and both hedging and netting approaches have been explored. Some ideas were abandoned; others continue to evolve today.
I eventually left a stable professional situation in Geneva to pursue this work more seriously. Today, trading contributes to my living, but the project is still evolving toward the level of consistency and scale I want to achieve. That reality is part of the story too.
Learning how the systems work, accessing our guides and creating a Josef account is free. We want you to understand the approach before deciding whether it is right for you.
