Could you build this?

No Executing autonomous trading across multiple asset classes (equities, options, prediction markets, and DEXs like Hyperliquid) requires low-latency execution engines, real-time market data pipelines, and strict financial risk controls that AI coding prompts cannot reliably build.

What it would actually take: A real version requires high-throughput WebSocket ingestion for L2/L3 order books, deterministic event-driven backtesting infrastructure (e.g., in Rust, C++, or optimized Python), and direct FIX/REST/Web3 API integrations with exchanges and brokers. The platform must implement ironclad pre-trade risk management, slippage modeling, margin calculations, and low-latency order routing. Deep quantitative finance expertise, secure key custody management, and real-time fault-tolerant distributed systems are non-negotiable.
