88capital — automated investment strategy as content
● Running
88capital is a rules-based investment strategy and content brand. The strategy — an 80/20 split between long-term ETFs and a signal-driven dip-buying layer — was built and automated using n8n workflows, Yahoo Finance data, and Claude-generated Slack narratives. The goal is an automation template for an personal investment portfolio that generates passive income with minimal active management..
What it does
88capital is a a personal investment strategy with structured and documented workflows – each article covers a piece of the methodology — broker selection, NT funds, signal logic, automation setup — using tools like: IBKR, Koyfin, Sharesight, n8n.
The n8n automation suite is the core digital product. A series of scheduled workflows handle signal detection (RSI, SMA, drawdown), Claude-assessed alert narratives, tiered Slack notifications, and a weekly digest. These are documented and publicly available. Further enhancements, such as automated execution and dynamic sector based watchlists fuelled by sentiment analysis, can be added in subsequent phases.

What’s been built
Investment Automation Suite
A set of n8n workflows covering RSI, SMA, and drawdown signal detection; Claude-assisted narratives; tiered Slack alerts; and a performance digest.

Content Architecture
Anchor how-to articles incorporating personal investor tooling with n8n to implement an automated investment strategy. All content generated through the Nexus pipeline.
Honest assessment
The automation was the interesting part — the content is the work, which is where Nexus comes in. Writing about a strategy you’ve built and tested is straightforward, but AI-sourcing the initial draft articles definitely helps reduce the effort, as affiliate economics only work at scale and so a lot of writing needs to come first. The digital product (the n8n workflow package) helps to build an audience that makes recurring income possible.
