## What it is
NextTrade is an open-source, no-code platform for creating, backtesting, optimizing, and deploying algorithmic stock trading strategies. It is the predecessor to the cloud-based NexusTrade platform and supports compound conditions, unlimited portfolios, genetic-algorithm parameter optimization, and live deployment.

## Use cases
- backtest a stock trading strategy on historical data
- build a no-code trading bot without writing code
- optimize trading strategy parameters with a genetic algorithm
- deploy an automated trading strategy live
- create multiple portfolios with different strategy combinations
- test conditional buy/sell rules for stocks

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted, open-source alternative to cloud trading platforms
- you want to visually compose trading strategies from conditions without coding
- you need backtesting plus genetic-algorithm optimization in one tool
- you want to experiment with algorithmic trading before upgrading to NexusTrade

## When to avoid
- you need cryptocurrency or options trading - only stocks are currently supported
- you want the more feature-rich, actively developed cloud platform (use NexusTrade instead)
- you need a code-first quant framework rather than a no-code UI
- you require broker integrations beyond what the architecture supports out of the box
