rewrite this title Moomoo Launches Agentic Investing in the Form of API Skills – Finovate

Moomoo launches API Skills to connect personal AI agents to trading and allow investors to use natural language to build and execute strategies without coding.

The new tools include strategy validation, intent-to-execution translation, and 24/7 market monitoring inside a pro trading environment.

Moomoo enables external AI agents via APIs, giving users control, flexibility, and local data security.

Online investment and trading platform Moomoo is launching agentic investing tools this week. The California-based company has launched API Skills to allow retail investors to connect their personal AI agents directly to Moomoo’s infrastructure.

With API Skills, investors can use natural language commands to create structured, executable investment strategies without coding. The tool integrates with multiple AI agent frameworks, enabling always-on agents that act as 24/7 trading assistants that continuously interpret market data, monitor conditions, and prepare trades based on a user’s goals within a professional-grade trading environment.

“With Moomoo API Skills, we are reducing the technical barriers that once stood between an idea and its execution, enabling clients’ personal AI agents to connect directly with our platform while ensuring investors retain full control of every decision,” said Moomoo Canada CEO Michael Arbus.

The new tool not only helps non-technical users automate their trading decisions, but it also helps investors save time by streamlining more complex workflows. Included in the API Skills are automated strategy validation that allows users to review, refine, and validate their strategies before deploying them, intent-driven development that translates natural language commands into structured logic to execute the move in the market, and a volatility monitor that detects market shifts 24/7.

With Moomoo’s API Skills, all trading credentials and sensitive account data remain within the user’s local environment instead of passing through third-party AI servers. The new capability also allows users to test and explore their agent’s logic using virtual funds before moving the logic into the wild.

Moomoo isn’t the only trading platform empowering users with agentic trading. Last month, brokerage platform Public introduced AI agents to automate their portfolio strategies with AI. The two approaches are slightly different, however. While Public’s agents are native, consumer-facing agents geared toward retail investors, Moomoo is an API layer for builders that lets external AI agents plug into trading.

Founded in 2018, Moomoo has 29 million investors across Singapore, Australia, Japan, Canada, Malaysia, and New Zealand.
