Build your own AI market analyst in one afternoon: it researches your assets every morning at 08:00 and delivers a numbers-first briefing to your Telegram - from a $7/month server you own. No code. No subscription. Nobody between you and your tool.
Build My Analyst - $27Instant access - 60-page ebook + 8 video lessons + every skill and script ready to paste. 30-day refund, no questions.
a real brief, and how you build yours
This course will not make you rich. It will make you systematic. No signals, no predictions, no lambos. A tool, a method, and full ownership of both.
Thousands of traders open a chat window. Paste the same five prompts. Get a decent analysis. Close the tab. Tomorrow, the AI remembers nothing. The "strategy" lives in a notes app. The analysis quality depends on how well you phrased things before coffee. And if you sleep in, skip a day, travel - there is no analysis at all.
That is not an AI problem. That is an architecture problem - and architecture problems have architecture solutions.

Tomorrow morning this lands on your phone:
Written ninety seconds earlier by an agent running on your server. It knows your assets, your sizing, your preferences - permanently. It gets measurably better every time you correct it, because corrections patch its methodology file, not a chat that scrolls away.
And everything is yours: open-source agent (Hermes Agent by Nous Research - free software; you pay for the tested path, not the tool), your API keys, your machine, your methodology under version control. Cancel nothing, because you subscribe to nothing.

The Bloomberg Terminal sits on a desk you have to come to, and doesn't know who you are. Yours lives in your pocket and works for no one else. A different tool, obviously - but the same idea professionals have always paid for:
You don't scroll for information; it comes to you, structured, on time.
We assume zero Linux experience.
With a hard spending cap, so the worst case is ever a stopped agent - never a surprise bill.
Then watch the agent finish its own security setup while you approve.
Mathematically locked to your user ID and no one else on earth.
Every day. And it improves when you complain.
Milestone shipped.
time: ~3 focused hours · cost to run: $10-25/month all-in · code written by you: zero
Not a mystery box. This is literally what you download - a real lesson frame, a real ebook page, the real file list:
The finished 08:00 brief before anything else, who this is (and isn't) for, real costs, and the honest contract for the course.
Rent a VPS, log in with keys that can't be phished, set the timezone, lock it down - firewall, no root login, auto-patches. Zero Linux experience assumed.
Install the agent, pass the doctor check, plug in a frontier model with a hard spending cap, trim the tool surface, and have your first conversation with your own machine.
The four attackers, the five layers, approvals and sandboxing - then you watch the agent finish hardening its own house while you approve.
Create the bot, wire the gateway, and lock it to your numeric ID - then the lock test: watch a stranger's message get dropped before the agent ever sees it.
What a skill file is, the anatomy of a real one, install and trigger from your phone - and the self-improvement loop: complain once, it patches its own methodology.
The analyst skill end to end: guided tour, first run, attach the 08:00 schedule, see it fail loudly (never silently), and the week of calibration. Milestone shipped.
What this analyst still can't do, the honest limits, maintenance in 15 minutes a month - and what the other four milestones look like.

30 days, full refund, no questions - and you keep the materials. If the course doesn't get you to a working analyst, email support and the $27 comes back. The checklists, scripts and skills stay yours either way. We can afford this guarantee because the path is tested; you can rely on it because it's in writing.
Built on, not built up. Hermes Agent is one of the most-starred open-source agent projects of its generation - 218,000+ GitHub stars. This course is the tested path from blank server to working analyst on top of it - written against v0.18 and validated command-by-command against official docs.
// if an empty testimonial wall bothers you more than a fake one would - this course is doing its job already.
Any timeframe - the brief adapts to how you actually trade:
A quiet daily check on your thesis. Most mornings: "nothing structural changed." The morning that's false - you hear it, with sources named.
Levels, momentum, catalysts - the full setup context on your assets before the open. Every day, same format, no gaps.
A bias with a stated invalidation, tracked day after day - and a methodology file that accumulates your rules instead of forgetting them.
Not tick-by-tick signals - the day's conditions at 08:00: daily bias, the levels that matter, and the event risk on today's calendar.
Fair question - Hermes Agent is open source and always will be. Here's exactly what the money buys:
| DIY from the docs ($0) | With the course ($27) | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to a working analyst | evenings of docs, forums and dead ends | ~3 focused hours, one afternoon |
| Security setup | the part most people skip until it hurts | built into the path - allowlist, sandbox, spending cap |
| The analyst skill | write your own methodology file from scratch | working daily-brief skill included, calibrate to taste |
| The classic traps | you find them the hard way | pre-sprung and flagged before you hit them |
| When Hermes updates | you re-figure it out | course re-validated per release, updates free |
// if your time is worth more than $9/hour, the math works. if DIY sounds like fun anyway - genuinely, go build it. the agent's repo is public.
Chapter 1 assumes exactly that. Every command is given, explained, and checklisted - and the #1 classic mistake (locking yourself out) has a dedicated safety-net walkthrough.
$5-8 server + $5-15 in AI tokens monthly. You set a hard spending cap in lesson 2, so the ceiling is yours. All providers and prices are compared inside.
No. This is an education product about building a research tool. It produces analysis for YOUR judgment; it never trades for you (that's a different course, and even there, with kill switches).
You can - that's the ritual described at the top of this page. This course exists for the day you're done with that ritual.
Yes. The agent is free and always will be. $27 buys the tested path: the working analyst skill, the security setup most people skip until it hurts, the traps pre-sprung, and the maintenance plan. If your time is worth more than $9/hour, the math works.
The course pins to a version, tracks releases, and updates are free. There's also a monthly 15-minute maintenance checklist - the whole burden of ownership.
The honest one: this is chapter one of a bigger course (Full Stack Trader, $499 - portfolio automation, backtesting, live execution). Starter is complete on its own, and your $27 becomes a permanent $50 credit if you ever upgrade. No countdown timers, no expiring offers - buy the rest in two years if that's when you're ready.

One afternoon of setup. A briefing every morning for as long as you keep a $7 server running. And the skill that matters this decade: knowing how to direct an agent - state outcomes, review evidence, own the methodology.
