Congratulations! Does this eliminate the initial invite only requirement for algo traders outside the US who want to switch to live trading account?
this Broker API doesn't solve that yet, but we will be making the update on the front soon :)
This is awesome !!! Opens up a whole world of possibilities !!! Congrats !!!🎉
thank you so much, yes, let's build more commission-free trading apps across the world!
r/wallstreetbets here we come. Greetings from India.
and that "r/w" will be global and should be in multi-lingual eventually!
This is revolutionary. Only last week I was looking for a way to buy US stocks from India and couldn't find anything good. I've signed up through GoTrade. Congratulations on the launch. This changes everything.
thank you so much! Gotrade is great, and it is great that it works well for you in India as well!!
Can’t wait to see the first bubble templates showing up!
that would be AWESOME!!!
Wow! Looks very useful. Great job! I can't wait when I try it in my project. Congratulations!
Great! Hoping that this API brings you the features that you wanna bring to life :)
great thx..
thank you!!!
Can a practise account be simulated for a user using the Broker API?
yes you can :)
thanks!!! incredible!
Congrats on the fantastic launch! Is it possible for a simple trading/investing app to use the Brokerage API (e.g. a company that isn't an RIA or BD)? I saw that the documentation says there is support for these non-financial institutions, but I was curious how that worked. Would Alpaca handle the entire CIP/KYC/AML process?
Hi , does this API support companies (Us or not) targeting non US clients?
