Trading automation & bots
Bots and tooling for trading platforms — the ecosystem behind BinaryOptionsToolsV2.
Hi, my name is
Alexandre.
Communication Systems student at EPFL · Rust & Python developer
While studying Syscom at EPFL, I also work on building trading related tools with a friend in order to help users make their own algorithmic trading bots. I am mainly working on the second version of a programming language to help users write their own trading strategies. Apart from that I wrote most of the code for the python trading library BinaryOptionsToolsV2, a library to interact with binary options platforms.

What I do
Language tooling
DSLs, typecheckers, compilers, VMs, tree-sitter grammars, LSPs and editor integration.
Python libraries & APIs
Well-documented Python libraries, with Rust cores where speed matters.
AI & machine learning
PyTorch and TensorFlow models — certified TensorFlow Developer.
About me
Third semester Communication Systems (SysCom) student at EPFL. Before Lausanne: the French bac at the Lycée Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in Vitacura, Chile — maths & physics track. I speak Spanish, Italian, English and French.
Outside class, most of my time goes into ChipaDevTeam — I'm an org admin on GitHub and our self-hosted GitLab, and I wrote most of BinaryOptionsToolsV2: 120+ stars, ~5,600 PyPI downloads a month, and a 1,900-member Discord around it.
Lately it's mostly language design. My closed-source trading DSL powers chipaeditor.com, and v2 is a full rewrite — built for speed, with a cleaner syntax and a strong typechecker that catches broken strategies at compile time.
On the ML side: PyTorch and TensorFlow (certified TensorFlow Developer), plus the usual NumPy / pandas / scikit-learn / matplotlib stack.

Language designer & compiler engineer
ChipaEditor (closed source)
- Designed and shipped v1 of the Chipa trading DSL powering chipaeditor.com.
- Building v2: conditionals, match statements, structs, Rust-style stateful enums (they carry data), custom indicator types, for/while loops, functions, methods and attributes.
- Wrote the typechecker and a compiler down to a self-contained IR executed by a dedicated VM with a bytecode parser — fast and sandboxed by design.
- Published an open-source tree-sitter grammar, built a working LSP (Zed today), and building a Monaco-based web IDE for the language.
