An Alpaca trading bot on Coinrule executes your equity strategies with commission-free trades across US markets. Connect via API to automate entries and exits on stocks like AAPL, MSFT and TSLA while maintaining full custody of your funds. The system monitors price movements, technical indicators and volume patterns to trigger your predefined rules without manual intervention.
Alpaca Markets eliminates trading commissions which means your automated strategies keep more profit from frequent rebalancing. The platform supports fractional shares so you can deploy precise position sizing even with smaller account balances. Real-time market data feeds ensure your rules execute at optimal prices.
Choose from tested templates designed specifically for stock markets including momentum breakouts, dividend capture strategies and earnings-based rules. Each template adapts to different market conditions while maintaining consistent risk parameters across your portfolio.
US equity market focus
Rules activate during market hours with pre-market and after-hours support where liquidity allows. You can schedule strategies around earnings announcements, Fed meetings and economic releases to capitalize on volatility or avoid risk during uncertain periods.
API integration with Alpaca
Coinrule connects securely to your Alpaca account through encrypted API keys that never expose your login credentials. The integration supports both paper trading for testing and live execution when you're ready to deploy capital.
Moving Average Scalper
Enters long positions when 20-period MA crosses above 50-period MA on 15-minute charts. Exits when price drops 2% below entry or when moving averages cross back. Designed for trending stocks with consistent volume patterns.
RSI Oversold Rebound
Buys when RSI falls below 30 on daily timeframes with volume above 20-day average. Takes profit when RSI exceeds 70 or after 5 trading days maximum hold period. Works well with established large-cap stocks.
Breakout Plus Retest
Triggers buy orders when price breaks above 20-day high with 1.5x average volume confirmation. Waits for pullback to breakout level before entering. Stops out if price closes below breakout zone for two consecutive days.
Momentum Pullback Entry
Identifies stocks up 5%+ in past week then buys on first red day if RSI stays above 40. Sells when momentum resumes or after 3-day consolidation period. Targets stocks with strong fundamental catalysts.
Support Resistance Bounce
Maps key support levels from previous swing lows and enters long when price approaches within 1% of support with bullish divergence. Exits at resistance or with 3% stop loss below support level.

Earnings Drift Capture
Enters positions 1-3 days after positive earnings surprises when initial volatility settles. Holds for 2-4 weeks to capture post-earnings momentum. Uses trailing stops to protect gains as price advances.
Sector Rotation System
Rotates between sector ETFs based on relative strength rankings updated weekly. Allocates to top 3 performing sectors while avoiding bottom 2. Rebalances monthly or when rankings shift significantly.
Dollar Cost Averaging
Splits monthly investment into weekly purchases of target stocks regardless of price. Increases allocation during market downturns when VIX exceeds 25. Focuses on dividend-paying blue chip companies for long-term growth.
Volatility Expansion Trade
Monitors stocks with unusually low volatility then enters when price breaks out of consolidation range. Uses ATR-based position sizing to adjust for risk. Targets 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio with trailing stops.
Opening Range Strategy
Identifies first 30-minute trading range then enters when price breaks above or below with volume confirmation. Manages risk with tight stops at range boundaries. Most effective during trending market conditions.
Set portfolio-level stops that halt all strategies when total drawdown exceeds your comfort zone. Position sizing adjusts automatically based on volatility so high-beta stocks receive smaller allocations. Correlation filters prevent overexposure to similar sectors or market cap ranges.
Test every strategy with Alpaca's paper trading environment before risking real capital. The simulation uses actual market data and execution delays to provide realistic results. Track performance metrics over different market conditions to validate your approach.
Schedule rules to activate during specific market sessions or around economic events. Pre-market scanners identify overnight gaps while after-hours rules capture earnings reactions. Weekend analysis prepares strategies for Monday market opens.
Frequent rebalancing becomes profitable when commissions don't erode returns from small position adjustments. Your strategies can respond quickly to market changes without worrying about transaction costs accumulating over time.
