Artificial intelligence is everywhere in trading right now. But there is a problem that almost no one is talking about.

AI hallucinates. Its training data is full of untested strategies, forum speculation, and ideas that have never been validated against real market data. Ask an AI for a profitable trading strategy and it will confidently give you something that looks plausible, sounds logical, and trades terribly. Most traders have no way to tell the difference.

There is, however, a way to use AI that is genuinely powerful – and it starts with understanding what AI can and cannot do.

In this webinar, Adrian Reid – founder of Enlightened Stock Trading and systematic trader for over 20 years – will show you exactly how to use AI as a research accelerator inside a disciplined, rules-based trading process. You will see the complete workflow step by step: from identifying a market pattern on a chart, to generating testable hypotheses with AI, to coding those hypotheses into a backtestable system, to analysing results and improving the system through a structured filter process.

This is not about letting AI trade for you. It is about using AI to do more research, test more ideas, and build better systems in far less time – without cutting corners on validation.

Attendees will leave with a clear framework for where AI helps, where it hurts, and exactly how to integrate it into their trading process safely and productively.

Who Should Attend

This webinar is for active traders who want to use AI tools productively rather than dangerously. It is particularly suited to:

  • Traders who have experimented with AI for trading ideas and been disappointed or burned by the results
  • Systematic and algorithmic traders who want to accelerate their research and system development process
  • Discretionary traders who want to start building testable, rules-based systems and see how AI can fast-track that transition
  • Anyone curious about where AI fits – and does not fit – in a serious trading process

No coding experience is required. The focus is on process and thinking, not software.
