Robinhood Rolls Out AI Trading Agents and Weekend Trading Plans
At its HOOD Summit, Robinhood unveiled products aimed at attracting active traders, led by Robinhood Agents, which can research markets, develop strategies and place trades through dedicated customer accounts; trade approvals are enabled by default but customers can turn them off. More than 150,000 customers already use agentic trading accounts, whose agents interact with Robinhood’s systems nearly 30 million times daily; planned Agent Apps will add third-party data and tools, while Loops will support continuously running strategies. Robinhood also plans weekend trading in selected U.S. stocks and ETFs, subject to regulatory review, and crypto perpetual futures for eligible U.S. customers, with up to 10x leverage on bitcoin and ether. It introduced earnings-related contracts and plans to expand options trading hours. The announcements extend Robinhood’s push toward automated and round-the-clock retail trading, and its shares rose after the news.
