The cost of manual execution in fast markets
Modern trading requires immediate execution. Waiting to see a signal, opening your platform, entering order details... every second lost directly impacts your profitability (slippage).
Main negative impacts:
Unacceptable slippage
The delay between signal and execution leads to execution at a less favorable price than intended.
Human entry errors
Fatigue or stress inevitably lead to volume or price errors during manual execution.
Missed opportunities
Lack of responsiveness prevents capitalizing on brief volatility windows in the markets.
Swiftask automates execution using real-time data from Polygon. Your AI agent monitors market conditions and triggers the order as soon as your criteria are met.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Manual trading
You watch the charts. Price hits your threshold. You manually place the order on your broker. The price has already moved 0.5% while you were clicking.
Automated trading via Swiftask + Polygon
The AI agent receives the Polygon stream continuously. As soon as the condition is met, the order is sent in milliseconds via API, ensuring the target price.
Deploying your strategy in 4 steps
1
STEP 1 : Polygon stream setup
Connect your Polygon API key to Swiftask to access real-time market data.
2
STEP 2 : Defining order logic
Set the conditions (price threshold, volume, indicators) that trigger execution.
3
STEP 3 : Broker integration
Configure the output action towards your trading platform or broker via API.
4
STEP 4 : Backtesting and activation
Test your agent on historical data before moving to real-time execution.
Execution agent capabilities
Multi-source analysis of price, volume, and order book data provided by Polygon.
- Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in polygon based on event context.
- Automated actions: Market or limit order placement, automatic cancellation, dynamic stop-loss and limit management.
- Native governance: The agent maintains a full execution log for reporting and compliance.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-polygon@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.
Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
