Nofx

Nofx is an open-source, self-hosted AI trading terminal where language models analyze market structure, decide on trades, execute them and record their reasoning. A Go runtime applies hard order and position limits, and users can run multiple traders side by side to compare realized returns.

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Nofx when you want to operate a self-hosted, model-driven trading terminal and are prepared to complete its account, wallet and exchange setup.

Who it is for

  • Traders seeking to run AI-driven strategies across supported markets and exchanges.
  • Developers interested in a Go-based, AGPL-3.0 trading terminal with model-controlled decisions and runtime-enforced order limits.

Documented uses

  • Run an automated trading loop that reads market structure, makes decisions, places trades and records reasoning.
  • Configure combinations of models, exchanges and strategies.
  • Run multiple traders in parallel and compare their realized returns.
  • Apply coded limits to positions, leverage, trade frequency and drawdown.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository describes Nofx as free and open source under AGPL-3.0. The documented first-run flow requires account registration, at least $1 USDC on Base for the AI fee wallet, and at least $12 USDC deposited for Hyperliquid trading.

  • The project describes support for nine exchanges and multiple models and strategies; check that the exchange and model combination you need is supported.
  • The documented first-run Autopilot setup uses Hyperliquid and requires separate fee-wallet and trading funds.
  • Risk controls include position and leverage limits, exchange-side stop-loss and take-profit, drawdown auto-close, trade throttling and a safe mode for repeated model failures.
  • The README says the terminal runs on the user's own machine and exchange credentials are encrypted at rest.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
