This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/algotrading

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • lumibot

    Backtesting and Trading Bots Made Easy for Crypto, Stocks, Options, Futures, FOREX and more

  • Lumibot has access to Interactive Brokers and Alpaca with daily backtesting available, and intraday coming shortly (disclosure I develop on this project)

  • Alpaca-API

    The Alpaca API is a developer interface for trading operations and market data reception through the Alpaca platform.

  • Alpaca provides a Python API and has a good paper trading platform, which would let you test your algo without risking real money. I've been using their platform for about a year and have successfully transitioned algos from paper testing to live with no code changes.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • blankly

    🚀 💸 Easily build, backtest and deploy your algo in just a few lines of code. Trade stocks, cryptos, and forex across exchanges w/ one package.

  • Hey we developed and open sourced a python package called Blankly. It allows you to merge the live environment with the development environment by allowing models to be backtestable, paper tradable, and then immediately run live without changing any code (except strategy.backtest() becomes strategy.start()). It's all free and open source of course so I like using it more than online platforms and theres no sketchy IP claims.
