Paper-trading market intelligence

Paper mode by defaultOptional Alpaca connectionNo custody

Research, test, and review strategies before you trade.

TradeMaker helps you organize research, apply risk controls, and track simulated paper trades. It is not a broker and does not provide personalized investment advice. After sign-in, you may choose to authorize your own Alpaca paper or live account; live use requires verification and a separate explicit confirmation.

All simulated results depend on data and modeling assumptions, including timing, fees, spreads, slippage, liquidity, and market impact. Simulated gains are not guarantees of future performance. Read the disclosures.

Platform

A controlled workspace for research and simulation.

Research workspace

Organize watchlists, stored bars, provider quotes, external research, and charts into evidence-first research briefs.

Paper-order evaluation

Review quote freshness, allocation caps, drawdown limits, and risk gates before recording a simulated paper order.

Simulated portfolio desk

Review simulated positions, research evidence, and risk controls before optionally connecting your own authorized brokerage account.

Governed operations

Use workspace roles, audit history, risk blockers, and service controls to keep paper-trading activity accountable.

Clear product boundaries

Paper-first evaluation with user-authorized connections.

TradeMaker keeps research, paper simulations, risk review, account access, billing, and optional provider connections in separate controls. It does not custody assets. A live connection can only be authorized by its owner and confirmed after verification.
