Alpaca-API VS cli

Is there anyone using Alpaca for long term and passive investing? I am neither a US nor Europe residence, so it is pretty hard to find a decent broker. I came across alpaca.market https://alpaca.markets/ and noticed that there is zero comission for buying and selling stocks. I know that it has pretty good API especially for developers and day traders, but i am particularly interested in long term passive investing, and not interesting in day trading at all. Is it goog for long term passive investing (buying and holding etfs)?

No worries at all! https://alpaca.markets/ is another route for market data. Real time data is cheaper but it is lacking technical analysis. We used to use it and it's pretty good.

Alpaca: https://alpaca.markets/

Access to historical data from Alpaca and Yahoo Finance, or from your own data provider.

I have been looking at https://alpaca.markets/ and wanted to use it to test out some of my API based trading.

What guarantees or structures are in place to make sure it doesn't end up like FTX?

Market data is an easier one to answer. We currently use https://alpaca.markets/ and they're pretty good, but we're also looking at https://polygon.io/ as they're the industry leader (but also 2k per month for what we require).

I'm trying to make an HTTPS request with an ESP32 to this website alpaca.markets. I have the CA cert and I'm using WiFiClientSecure.h. Here's my code, main.cpp is underneath all that.

Or you can sign up for a free account at Alpaca and use their historical data API. Then you can get data on many tickers with one function call.

Note: You can check the quality of SOCKS5 or HTTPS proxy with companies like: https://ipinfo.io or whoer.net

You need an access token from ipinfo to access their API. Go to ipinfo.io and sign up for an account. After signing up, you'll get an access token. Keep it handy as we'll need it in the next step.

3- IPinfo

Mullvad VPN location set to Frankfurt germany

Using the us east test server:

Proxy Score: 10/100 - Very likely not a Proxy

VPN Score: 0/55 - Very likely not a VPN

Using german test server:

Proxy Score: 10/100 - Very likely not a Proxy

VPN Score: 30/55 - Very likely a VPN

The thing that changed between both tests was the flow latencies vs ping latencies check. Clicking on more info it said: "flow variance too large in relation to avg flow: 0.6937484181219945"

I guess it works kinda, but not very consistent.

But e.g. https://ipinfo.io/ reveals immediately that this IP is a VPN IP address.

If it's a work computer it may be connecting to it's own VPN automatically. If you go to a site like https://ipinfo.io/ do you recognize the external IP address, region, and org?

Then just check IP of the server when ping is high for you, put IP in https://ipinfo.io/, and block range for all other servers in same datacenter.

3. Check the IP address information by ipinfo.io, and confirm the IP location information is right with okeyproxy's we pasted into ProxyHelper.
