Beyond Interactive Brokers and Schwab, many US traders hold accounts at brokers built for API trading, or at familiar names that now offer an API. We have built automated systems on all of the brokers below. Which one suits your strategy depends on what you trade, the order types you need, and whether you want a paper account to test on.
Your risk limits checked before every order, and a kill switch.
Reconciliation with what the broker reports, so the system always knows what it holds.
Clean recovery from disconnects and restarts, without sending an order twice.
A paper or test account run before going live, where the broker offers one.
We build software that runs your strategy. We don’t supply strategies or signals, we don’t manage money, and we make no claim about how any strategy performs. The rules and every trading decision stay yours.
Common questions
Which US broker API is easiest to automate?
Brokers built for API trading, such as Alpaca and Tradier, are usually quickest to start on, and Alpaca’s paper accounts make testing simple. The right choice depends on what you trade: options and futures traders often prefer Tastytrade or TradeStation, and Interactive Brokers covers the widest range of markets.
Can one system trade across several US brokers?
Yes. One engine can hold an adapter per broker, with limits per account and every account reconciled separately.
