1. AI-driven portfolio creation - no spreadsheet wizardry needed, the engine pulls the best tickers for your theme.
2. Custom ETF building - you can export the basket as a tradable ETF or keep it in your dashboard for long-term play.
3. Community ranking and sharing - see what the crowd is doing, vote on baskets, and learn from top performers.
4. Real-time updates - the tool refreshes holdings every few days to keep pace with market swings.
5. Performance tracking - a simple chart shows returns, volatility, and Sharpe ratio so you can compare against a benchmark. This isn't just for tech geeks; it works for retirees looking for steady growth or side-hustlers chasing crypto volatility. In my experience, the community feature is the most underrated part - you get to see how others are tilting their portfolios and you can tweak your own in real time.
I was a bit <s>sceptical</s> about the AI accuracy at first, but after testing a few baskets, the picks aligned with my own research, so I'm all in. Unlike generic robo-advisors that shuffle stocks based on past data, Potato Trade focuses on future trends. The free tier lets you build a handful of baskets, which is great for testing.
If you need unlimited custom baskets, advanced analytics, or priority support, the Pro plan at $49/month is worth the jump. There's no mobile app yet, so you'll be scrolling on your laptop, but the browser interface is clean and fast. We're constantly adding new themes - from robotics to sustainable agriculture - and the AI model learns from community feedback, so the baskets evolve as markets shift.
If you're a trader, you can even set alerts when a theme's weight changes, giving you a heads-up on potential rebalancing.
Ready to try it:
Sign up for the free plan, pick a theme, and watch your portfolio start to take shape. If you're serious about thematic investing, the paid tier unlocks everything you'll need to stay ahead.
