You guys know I’m a dork. I’m a nerd. Which is why I want to point out the difference between an algo and an AI for trading.
An algo follows instructions. When we create a trading algo, we give it a list of instructions and it follows them. That’s very useful for day trading.
An AI thinks, learns, and makes adjustments along the way. That makes it ideal for swing trading. In my opinion, my swing trade AI is the best.
Now, do I favor AI over algorithmic trading? No. I just use them for different reasons. My friend Jeff Zananiri agrees. Jeff was one of the first hedge fund managers to adopt algorithmic trading.

The Big Picture
Swing trades are so hot right now. From space stocks, to semiconductors, to AI infrastructure…
There have just been so many great swing trade opportunities this year.
Tonight I’m doing a free webinar after the market closes. I want to fill you in on what I expect, not only for the overall market, but also space stocks. And I’ll be giving a tour of IRIS, my swing trade AI.
If you’ve not heard of IRIS…
What Is IRIS?
IRIS is an AI that does all the due diligence for you. It does chart analysis. It looks at earnings and SEC filings. It does all of the hard work.
Again, the market is so hot for swing trades right now that I want anyone reading this to understand what a game changer this is.
Who Is IRIS AI For?
If you are curious about swing trading, about options, and about using AI in your trading, then you should come to the free webinar. I would love to see you there.
When you go to that link, this is the page you’ll see:
You can even click on the image above. Just add it to your calendar. We’re going to be talking about SpaceX, space stocks, and AI.
Why You Should Use AI for Swing Trading
The reason I use AI for swing trading is because real stocks move on fundamentals. They move on profit and loss, future prospects, earnings, and contract announcements. They move based on logic. AI is based on logic.
Building a Case for a Trade
I think of finding a good swing trade as an investigation. I’m going out and looking for clues. I’m trying to build a case for the trade. Before IRIS, I would spend hours searching for the information I needed.
IRIS does all the heavy lifting. It can look at the news for you. It knows how to interpret hot sectors and unusual volume. It’s a super advanced, continuously learning AI. It has a built in screener but does so much more, including:
- Fundamental analysis
- Technical analysis
- Position sizing
- Risk management
My Take
Remember, I’m a big proponent of AI. I use AI all day long. The reason I use an AI for swing trading is because it’s based on logic and reasoning. It calculates and solves based on actual fundamental details.
Watchlist
Cisco systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) was a killer IRIS trade. Now, this was last year but it was so good that I want to share a couple of details.
During our Swing Trade Strategy Session on June 9, 2025, we put IRIS to work on CSCO. There’s a lot more detail here (that’s to my Evernote, so give it a few seconds to load).
The verdict was: Trade, with a summary score of 7.8. Look at what CSCO has done since…
Now do you see why I want to see you on tonight’s webinar?
On My Radar
- “Superlearners” and the next frontier of AI. Watch this space.
- Liftoff: The SpaceX IPO is so big it’s sucking the oxygen out of the rest
- Oops, this didn’t go over well. Look, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. AI is a force multiplier whether you are in a job or trading full time. Get on it now. Starting tonight.
