Reviews from actual traders
Alpaca is great. They have an API that you can call yourself, along with support for JavaScript, Python, etc. Moreover, it's fee free! I'm a HUGE fan of Alpaca.
Not user friendly and no customer support. Had a simple question about adding another bank for deposits, and never received an answer; just referred me to the forum. My question was never addressed.
ok so far
Awesome!
all done
very good
I moved to Alpaca from TradeStation because TradeStation would randomly require me to log back in often at the worst times (i.e. in the middle of a trade) if I had more than one tab open logged in for trading. Now it looks like it is going to be even worse with TradeStation's new requirement for two-factor authentication. No such issues with Alpaca. I had 4 tabs open at one point all logged in for trading with Alpaca and it never asked me to re-login once. In short, if you are having the same problem and want to have multiple screens/tabs open that are all connected to your broker you might want to check out Alpaca.
I wish it had auto trades right from tradingview strategies withotu the need to program my own rest api.... but i managed to get that done anyway!
best broker ever
Great integration with Tradeview! Makes it easy to make money.
Poor. It doesn't work half the time. When it does work, it generally works well.
I spend a lot of time on here.
