TRADING
The Trader Intelligence Platform
Identifying skill. Building Alpha Intelligence. Allocating capital.
The Problem
The Prop Trading Industry Is Built On Misalignment
Most prop firms are designed to profit from trader failure. The moment a trader demonstrates repeatable alpha, they can become a payout obligation rather than a source of firm profitability.
- High challenge failure rates
- Restrictive payout policies
- Arbitrary trading limitations
- Limited ability to distinguish skill from luck
- 80–100 prop firms disappeared in 2024 alone, and industry consolidation continued throughout 2025
- Firms often view profitable traders as a liability
- Payout obligations can exceed anticipated economics
- Capital allocation remains inefficient
The industry generates massive amounts of trader performance data, yet almost none of it is transformed into actionable intelligence.
Instead, firms remain focused on selling evaluations.
Not converting trader skill into scalable alpha.
That is the opportunity.
The Solution
The Future Is Alpha Intelligence
Onyx is building an Alpha Intelligence Platform that transforms trader, strategy, market, and machine intelligence into better capital allocation decisions.
While most firms focus on selling evaluations, Onyx is designed to identify skilled traders, learn from their behavior, generate proprietary intelligence, and deploy capital more intelligently over time.
- Trader Intelligence
- Strategy intelligence
- Market intelligence
- Capital intelligence
- AI-driven trader analytics
- Alpha identification and validation
- Intelligent Capital Allocation
- Real-time risk management
- Multi-asset trading infrastructure
A continually improving intelligence network that identifies talent, generates Alpha intelligence, and improves how capital is deployed across traders, strategies, and opportunities.
Most firms sell evaluations.
Onyx learns, allocates,
and compounds intelligence.
Mission
Build the intelligence infrastructure that transforms data into Alpha Intelligence.
As the network grows, intelligence compounds. More data leads to better intelligence, stronger Alpha discovery, smarter capital allocation, and a continuously improving Intelligence Network.
Traditional quantitative firms compete for alpha.
Onyx builds the engine
that discovers it.
Why Now
Three industry shifts have made Alpha intelligence possible:
AI can now evaluate trader behavior at scale
Distinguish repeatable skill from luck, gaming, and unsustainable performance patterns.
The prop industry has optimized for selling evaluations rather than transforming data into intelligence
Profitable traders are often treated as a cost rather than a source of alpha generation.
Institutional-grade infrastructure is now accessible
Build sophisticated intelligence systems without rebuilding the entire technology stack.
The next generation of trading firms will not compete on restrictions.
They will compete on intelligence.
Onyx Quant
The Alpha Intelligence Engine
Most firms collect trading data.
Onyx transforms it into Alpha Intelligence.
- Trader Intelligence
- Strategy intelligence
- Market intelligence
- Machine intelligence
- Repeatable trader edge
- High-conviction strategies
- Favorable market environments
- Capital allocation opportunities
- Emerging Alpha hypotheses
The objective is not simply identifying profitable traders.
The objective is to continuously
generate and compound
Alpha intelligence.
The Onyx Intelligence Flywheel
A self-reinforcing loop. Every trader generates data, every data point sharpens intelligence, every improvement enhances capital allocation — and the cycle compounds.
The Onyx Intelligence Network
Every intelligence source strengthens the network. Every decision improves Onyx Quant. Every cycle compounds Alpha Intelligence.
The Onyx Intelligence Loop Architecture
Specialized intelligence loops compound into Alpha Intelligence, route through capital and partnership, and feed a company-wide learning loop that improves every other loop.
Monetizing Alpha Intelligence
Multiple revenue streams.
One Alpha Intelligence Engine.
- Evaluation revenue
- Instant-funded account revenue
- Account reset revenue
- 10% participation in OnyxLive trader revenue
- Alpha Intelligence-driven capital allocation
- Intelligence products and enterprise licensing
- Strategic research and institutional partnerships
- Intelligence APIs and analytics platform
Build the world's most valuable Alpha Intelligence Network by continuously generating, compounding, and applying intelligence across traders, strategies, markets, and capital.
The largest opportunity is not selling evaluations.
It is transforming trader intelligence into scalable alpha generation.
The Trader Intelligence Layer
Every trade becomes a learning event. Every trader contributes to Alpha Intelligence.
Traditional quantitative firms primarily
analyze markets.
Onyx analyzes the decision-makers
inside those markets.
Every interaction within the Onyx ecosystem contributes new intelligence to the Alpha Intelligence Engine. Through evaluations, funded accounts, and live capital programs, Onyx continually captures:
- Decision-making behavior
- Risk management under pressure
- Strategy execution and adaptation
- Repeatable Alpha patterns
- Market regime performance
- Learning and behavioral evolution
Every trader interaction contributes to a continuously expanding intelligence asset that improves Alpha discovery, capital allocation, and future decision-making.
- Every additional trader expands the intelligence.
- Every learning cycle improves the engine.
- Every improvement compounds the value of the network.
We are not simply acquiring traders.
We are building one of the world's most valuable Alpha Intelligence assets.
Market Opportunity
The Next Frontier of Financial Intelligence
Onyx sits at the intersection of AI, behavioral finance, capital allocation, and the global trading economy.
- Millions of traders globally participate across futures, options, equities, crypto, and prediction markets.
- Institutions continue searching for new methods of identifying skill, allocating capital, and generating returns.
- Artificial intelligence is transforming how financial performance, behavior and risk are evaluated.

Founder
Built by a Trader.
Driven by Behavioral Science.
Designed to Build Alpha Intelligence.
For more than a decade, I’ve studied what separates consistently profitable traders from everyone else—not just to become a better trader, but to understand whether repeatable alpha could be measured, learned, and eventually scaled. Onyx is the result of that pursuit.
- BSc in Neuroscience from the University of British Columbia
- Former Series 7 & 63 licensed financial advisor
- Active trader across options and futures markets since 2011
- Deep experience in trader psychology, risk management, and capital allocation
- Built businesses by identifying inefficiencies others overlooked
- Combines behavioral science, financial markets, and AI to rethink capital allocation
Onyx sits at the intersection of:
- Behavioral Science
- Financial Markets
- Artificial Intelligence
- Capital Allocation
The future of financial intelligence will come from
understanding how traders make decisions, not simply how markets move. Markets create opportunity. People create Alpha.
The Future of Alpha Intelligence
Traditional quantitative firms compete for alpha.
Onyx builds the engine
that discovers it.
Raising $3 Million
Funding will accelerate trader acquisition, expand the Alpha Intelligence Engine, validate intelligence-driven capital allocation, and establish the world's first scalable trader intelligence network.
Markets have been digitized.
Capital has been digitized.
Trader intelligence has not.
That's what we are building.
The Future of Financial Intelligence
The next generation of trading firms won’t be built around capital. They’ll be built around intelligence. Onyx is building that future.
LET’S BUILD THE FUTURE OF FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE
