At its annual event in Houston on September 30, 2026, Robinhood announced 24-7 trading for select U.S. stocks and agentic AI tools that build strategies and execute trades. CEO Vlad Tenev said the tools would give everyday traders capabilities once reserved for hedge funds. Reporting has established that the agents trade stocks, options, Bitcoin and prediction market contracts, and that agentic accounts are ring-fenced from the main account and connect to outside data through Robinhood MCPs sold by subscription. The discussion centers on how much autonomy retail investors should hand to AI agents.
