A modern approach to systematic investing. We are not a fund, broker, or advisor. We are the software that turns a defined set of rules into trades, executed through your own brokerage account.
Most people we talk to have a problem they would rather not think about. They have money sitting somewhere doing very little, and an uneasy feeling that it ought to be doing more. They are not interested in becoming traders. They are simply tired of the gap between what their money is and what they think it could be.
Aureus is the software for that problem. We have built a system that reads markets according to a defined set of rules, and executes trades through your brokerage account when those rules are met. It runs in the background. You do not need to watch it.
Asking for trust is a tall order, particularly in a category that has earned very little of it. We have written this entire site with that in mind. Read more about our approach.
No, and we are careful about that distinction. We are a software company. We do not manage money, give personalised investment advice, or hold your capital. Your broker does those things, and your broker is regulated by the relevant authority in their jurisdiction. We build the tool that sits between you and them.
Your money never touches us. It sits in your brokerage account, held by the broker, protected by the regulatory framework that applies to that broker. We connect through an API that can place trades, but it cannot withdraw, transfer, or move funds out of your account.
A reasonable thing to ask. The short answer is that we are a UK-registered company with named founders, a body of public writing, and a product that can be paused or disconnected at any time. The longer answer is everything else on this site.
No. Aureus is built for people who would rather their money worked without having to become a part-time trader to make it happen. If you understand that markets go up and down, and that trading involves risk, that is enough to begin.
It will lose, sometimes. No system wins every trade, and any company that suggests otherwise is one to avoid. The way the strategy manages losses, stop-losses on individual trades, position sizing, and the rules for stepping back during difficult conditions, is built into the system itself rather than left to you to configure. The system also has its own safety logic, so it will halt itself under certain conditions. And you can always turn it off entirely, at any time, from your end.
The strategy itself is not public. The reasoning behind the way we think about markets is, and it lives in our writing. If you want to know whether the people behind the software are worth your time, the journal is where to look.
