TradersPost: Platform Profile
We may earn a commission if you open an account through links on this page. Our editorial analysis is independent and is never influenced by commercial partnerships. Full disclosure.
Overview
TradersPost is a cloud-based trade-automation and signal-routing platform.
Its core role is narrower than a platform that invents strategies for the user.
A typical workflow is:
TradingView / TrendSpider / another signal source → webhook → TradersPost → connected broker or exchange.
TradersPost can then apply execution settings, position sizing, account routing and other controls before submitting the order.
The company states that it is not a registered broker-dealer or investment adviser and does not custody customer funds.
May fit better for
- systematic traders already using TradingView or TrendSpider;
- traders who want webhook-based broker execution without maintaining their own server;
- futures traders;
- stock traders;
- directional options traders;
- users who want to route one signal to selected accounts;
- traders managing multiple supported broker or prop-firm connections.
May fit less well for
- users seeking a turnkey strategy recommendation engine;
- high-frequency or sub-minute strategies;
- options traders requiring multi-leg spread automation in the current directional-options workflow;
- traders who expect strategy logic to query broker state continuously;
- users who do not want a recurring software fee for live auto-submit;
- traders unwilling to monitor signal and broker connectivity;
- investors who expect TradersPost to custody assets or guarantee executions.

Free use is not the same as free live automation
The pricing page distinguishes free testing from live auto-submit.
Current free functionality can support:
- testing signals;
- manual submission on live accounts;
- automated submission on paper accounts during the stated free/trial workflow.
Paid plans unlock live auto-submit.

TradersPost routes signals; it does not have to generate them
TradersPost's documentation identifies systematic traders using external sources such as:
- TradingView;
- TrendSpider;
- other webhook-capable systems.
The platform can also support subscriptions and strategy tooling, but its central automation role is signal transport and order submission.
That makes the architecture different from:
- Trade Ideas, where scanning and automation can live inside one product;
- Option Alpha, where bot logic is built directly inside the platform;
- Capitalise.ai, where strategy conditions can be written in natural language.
---
TradersPost explicitly says it is not for high-frequency or sub-minute trading
Current getting-started documentation says the service is not designed for ultra-short-term scalping or high-frequency strategies operating below the one-minute timeframe.
This limitation should not be buried.
A cloud webhook product can respond quickly and still be structurally inappropriate for strategies that depend on exchange-co-located or microsecond execution.
---
The platform does not provide a full broker-state feedback loop for strategy logic
TradersPost's current documentation says it does not currently provide broker/exchange order IDs, position state or account-level information for use directly in strategy logic.
It encourages users to maintain strategy state externally where necessary.
This is a material architecture constraint.
A strategy that assumes every prior signal filled exactly as expected can create conflicting or unintended behavior.
---
Stock automation supports a broad broker list
Current stock-trading documentation lists connections including:
- TradeStation;
- Alpaca;
- Robinhood;
- Interactive Brokers;
- E*TRADE;
- tastytrade;
- Tradier;
- Webull.
Connection availability and supported features can vary by asset class and broker.
---
Options automation has meaningful current limits
TradersPost supports stock/ETF options, and separately documents index options.
But its current stock-options page states that the platform supports directional options trades, not general multi-leg spread construction.
Current supported stock/ETF options broker examples include:
- TradeStation;
- Alpaca;
- E*TRADE;
- tastytrade;
- Tradier.
---
Futures are a first-class supported asset category
Current futures documentation says TradersPost supports buying, selling and shorting futures contracts and supports more than 100 tickers.
Futures connectivity can include firms such as:
- TradeStation;
- Tradovate;
- other supported futures/prop connections shown in the live registry.
Broker-specific symbol translation and tick-size issues remain operational considerations.
---
Spot crypto is supported, but not every crypto product
Current crypto documentation supports spot buying and selling through examples including:
- Alpaca;
- Coinbase;
- Kraken;
- Bybit.
It also states that crypto futures are not currently supported in the same way.
TradersPost is the automation layer, not the exchange or custodian.
---
Prop-firm connectivity needs an external-rules
TradersPost supports connections to proprietary trading-firm environments.
Its own documentation repeatedly warns that a technically supported connection does not prove the prop firm permits every form of automation.
Users are responsible for confirming:
- bot restrictions;
- copy-trading rules;
- holding-period rules;
- news restrictions;
- account-specific automation policy.
This guard should remain in the review because prop-firm rules can change faster than TradersPost's core software.
---
TradersPost is non-custodial and not an adviser or broker
Current Terms and disclosures state:
- Registered investment adviser: No
- Registered broker dealer: No
- Custodies customer funds: No
- Provides securities advice: No
The user's broker or exchange remains the venue/custodian under that separate relationship.
Protection depends on the connected financial institution and the asset involved.
Assessment
TradersPost solves a specific systems problem: connecting a strategy signal to one or more execution accounts without requiring the trader to build and host the entire integration stack.
That makes it attractive for users who already have strategy logic elsewhere.
It is less compelling for someone looking for the software itself to decide what to trade.
The most important limitation is architectural rather than cosmetic:
signal routing is not the same as a complete state-aware trading engine.
Users still need to manage strategy state, broker behavior, fills, account rules and connection health.
The recurring subscription can be reasonable for a trader automating several strategies or accounts, but expensive if the product is used only as an occasional webhook relay.
