Robinhood will launch AI agents, 10x leverage encrypted perpetual contracts, and weekend trading in the US stock market

Robinhood will launch AI agents for executable trading, encrypted perpetual contracts with up to 10 times leverage, and weekend trading capabilities for US stocks. It will also extend options trading hours, provide more intraday margin support, and add contract products based on corporate financial indicators. Robinhood Agents allows clients to create AI agents within the application, select OpenAI or Anthropic models, and authorize them to access independent trading accounts. Agents can analyze the market, create self selected lists, and trade stocks, options, and cryptocurrency assets. The Loops feature allows customers to issue long-term instructions to agents, monitor the market and execute strategies when specific conditions arise.
