Vivaan Jain

Economics & Finance student at Arizona State University — and the solo founder, researcher, and engineer behind Vaelor.

The story behind Vaelor

I wanted to know whether a disciplined, automated strategy could genuinely beat the market — not in theory, but proven and running live. So I built the whole thing myself: a machine-learning research pipeline that ranks the market, a strategy validated with walk-forward backtesting across nine years and every market regime, and an autonomous agent that trades and protects a portfolio with no human in the loop. Then I deployed it for real and started a public track record. Vaelor is the result — honest, transparent, and live.
