Acuity Trading, a leader in financial market analytics, has launched AI-powered trading signals, leveraging its proprietary artificial intelligence technology to revolutionize technical analysis for traders. This new feature integrates seamlessly with the company’s existing AnalysisIQ platform, offering users a choice between human-led multi-asset signals and fully automated AI-driven signals tailored for the FX and cryptocurrency markets.
The signals are developed by Acuity Analytics and combine traditional market strategies with advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) and sentiment analysis. This approach enhances technical analysis by incorporating real-time market sentiment and volatility data, providing traders with multidimensional insights into market dynamics.
Ariel Duarte-López, PhD, Head of Data Science at Acuity, stated that the new AI-driven signals represent a major evolution in technical analysis. He explained that by blending AI and data science, Acuity is able to deliver signals that account for both historical data and real-time market conditions, giving traders a competitive edge.
Acuity’s new feature covers over 2,100 assets, including major indices such as the S&P 500, Russell 2000, NASDAQ 100, and a wide array of cryptocurrencies. The company plans to expand its coverage to global equities, commodities, and additional FX markets, further diversifying the trading opportunities available to clients.
The platform allows for customisation, enabling traders to adapt their strategies based on specific timeframes and risk tolerance. Rigorous backtesting and optimization for both long-only and short-only strategies have demonstrated the system’s potential for superior performance.
Acuity’s AI-powered trade ideas have been validated through comparisons with traditional buy-and-hold strategies, showing significant outperformance. Duarte-López noted that profitability is driven by effective risk management measures, such as stop-loss strategies, which ensure higher returns from successful trades while mitigating losses.
As part of its commitment to advancing automated trading insights, Acuity’s innovations aim to empower traders with tools that blend AI sophistication with traditional financial expertise, setting a new standard for actionable market intelligence.
