Congratulations! Does this eliminate the initial invite only requirement for algo traders outside the US who want to switch to live trading account?

@benjamin_umeh this Broker API doesn't solve that yet, but we will be making the update on the front soon :)

@sagarpatil 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.

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 @yokokawa244, does this API support companies (Us or not) targeting non US clients?
