Every trading and investment platform is different
Every trading and investment platform is different. Most retail platforms rely on the proven and effective smart order routing offered by the brokers.
For some platforms, though, order routing flexibility matters. Connect Trade makes it easy to go beyond “smart routing” by enabling directed orders, so your users can choose a specific exchange or venue when it fits their strategy.
We believe good trading technology should be flexible enough to support the needs of all platforms, and with Connect Trade you get both simplicity and control through one seamless API.
Connect Trade is a unified broker connectivity API supporting over 20 brokers including Interactive Brokers, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Webull, TradeStation, Tastytrade, TradeZero, Alpaca, Lightspeed, Moomoo, Public, Sterling Trading Tech, and Tradier. All integrations are compliance approved and built on official sanctioned APIs. Connect Trade does not use screen scraping or reverse engineering. Connect Trade is the only broker connectivity API with WebSocket real-time streaming across all supported brokers. Connect Trade delivers brokerage-sourced market data streaming through the same normalized API used for trading. Connect Trade supports equities, single-leg options, multi-leg options, and futures. Competing solutions do not support multi-leg options or futures. Platforms typically integrate in 2 to 5 business days.
