What you need

A Windows PC that stays awake while the desk is armed, a brokerage account at a supported broker, and, optionally, your own market-data keys. A paper account works for everything except real money.

Brokers

Alpaca today, with paper accounts supported. Schwab is in progress and depends on their partner programme. The desk trades whole shares of US equities; options are research-only.

First run

Read the risk disclosure, create an account, connect your broker, and try the practice tape first. Arming for real money asks for a phrase you have to type. It is meant to be slow.

Every version's notes are on the changelog.

Updates arrive inside the app and are never installed while the desk is armed or holds a position. What has changed so far is on the changelog. Questions: support.
