Outputs scored research recommendations with invalidation levels, target zones, risk/reward, warnings, and no execution permission.
NovaOrbital Alpha Labs
AI Trading DivisionProject Neo is now a dedicated research engine stack.
Alpha Labs now has separate Project Neo strategy, backtesting, forward-testing, and integrity systems for scanner candidates, risk review, recommendation reports, and research-only validation before any execution layer exists.
Research Operating Model
Scanner candidates now move through strategy, risk, replay, and forward review.
Project Neo stays separate from Morpheus and the frozen Local Runner. Its engines evaluate candidates, score setups, simulate historical outcomes, track paper forward results, and report integrity warnings without placing trades.
Ranks VWAP momentum, VWAP reclaim, reversal bounce, and trend-continuation research setups.
Replays historical Project Neo candidates through scoring and risk filters for hypothetical outcomes.
Tracks research recommendations after publication and reports what happened next in paper mode.
Checks execution assumptions, Decimal-safe calculations, reconciliation risks, and data-feed integrity before future integrations.
Project Neo Status
Research recommendation infrastructure is in place.
Backtesting evaluates candidate quality, strategy fit, risk filters, and hypothetical results without broker access.
Forward testing watches research recommendations after they are produced and summarizes follow-through.
Integrity checks prepare future execution-edge safeguards while keeping live trading disabled.
Infrastructure Status
Morpheus now runs through the production local-to-cloud path.
Python local runner is supervised as a long-running research-only service on port 8000.
The permanent morpheus.novaorbital.net hostname routes public HTTPS traffic to the local runner.
Windows boot triggers the NovaOrbital Startup Manager and detached Morpheus Runner task automatically.
Public /health checks confirm the runner before n8n calls the research scan endpoint.
n8n Cloud calls the HTTPS runner endpoint and sends success or failure email reports.
Runner v0.2.1, Morpheus v0.3.1, and Startup Manager v1.0.2 are the documented production baseline.
Three Alpha Desks
Purpose-built research lanes with shared infrastructure.
Department Aegis
Equity day-trading research focused on market scanning, liquidity structure, momentum detection, and risk-managed execution.
- Market scanning
- Momentum confirmation
- Execution discipline
Department Velocity
Crypto microstructure research focused on liquidity capture, volatility behavior, exchange routing, and fast review loops.
- Order-book behavior
- Volatility breakouts
- Liquidity capture
Department Orbit
Options research focused on probability, volatility, asymmetric return structures, and portfolio-level exposure controls.
- Volatility modeling
- Probability edges
- Defined-risk design
Governance Desk
Performance attribution, model versioning, exception review, capital gates, and compliance-minded logging.
- Audit logs
- Review gates
- Model monitoring
Shared Infrastructure
The same spine supports every Alpha department.
Morpheus remains the frozen research scanner while Project Neo keeps its own strategy, testing, and integrity path.
Research outputs include scores, grades, invalidation levels, target zones, warnings, and explicit no-execution flags.
Agent 030 keeps Morpheus online while n8n Cloud reaches it through the permanent HTTPS named tunnel.
Future production steps remain blocked behind validation, approval control, and manual release decisions.
