Understanding AI Stock Trading: Risk, Reward, and the Machine-Powered Portfolio

Artificial intelligence has infiltrated the stock market, promising speed, data-driven precision, and the allure of effortless profits. But behind the hype lies a complex reality. This book cuts through the marketing noise to show you how AI trading systems actually work—from simple moving-average bots to deep learning models that analyze news sentiment—and, more importantly, where they fail. You will learn why most algorithmic traders lose money, how backtesting can deceive you, and why leverage can destroy a portfolio overnight. Written for the curious investor without a finance background, each chapter builds a realistic picture of what machines can and cannot do. You will discover how to evaluate a trading bot, spot common red flags in automated strategies, and understand the hidden costs of slippage, fees, and market impact. No get-rich-quick schemes, no guaranteed returns—only a clear-eyed guide to the risks and rewards of machine-powered portfolios. Part of The AI Trading Library.
