Three categories of AI trading tools exist in 2026 — signal bots, LLM helpers like ChatGPT, and purpose-built research AI. Two of them either don’t work or can’t see the market. Here’s how to tell them apart and which ones are worth your time.
A head-to-head comparison of Trade Ideas Holly, Tickeron, Tradytics, TrendSpider, ChartSnipe, and the ChatGPT baseline — markets covered, live data, news integration, screenshot chart analysis, currency strength, pricing, and who each one is actually built for.
ChatGPT is great at explaining concepts, drafting trade plans, and reviewing your journal. It cannot see live prices, does not know today’s economic calendar, and hallucinates levels on charts. Here is the honest split — plus the tools that fill the gaps.
