Your broker, your keys

We never custody your funds. Encrypted credentials sit only on your dedicated instance — never visible to other tenants.

Paper-by-default

Every plan starts in paper mode. You opt into live trading when you're ready, with a step-up MFA check at the toggle.

Honest expectations

Live returns typically compress to 50-70% of backtest. We surface both numbers and the math on every screen.

Stop any time

Cancel mid-cycle, pause individual engines, or liquidate everything with one click. No lock-ins.

HOW IT WORKS

From signup to first trade in fifteen minutes.

Three steps, all guided. No code, no spreadsheets, no manual order entry.

Step 01

Sign up + verify

Create your account, set up two-factor on your phone, accept the risk disclosure. Five minutes.

Step 02

Connect your broker

Generate API keys from Alpaca, Schwab, Tradier, or four other brokers. Paste them in. We test the connection.

Step 03

Flip the switch

Start in paper mode. Engines spin up within 30 seconds. Watch a few days. Move to live when you're comfortable.

5-YEAR BACKTEST · PAPER-VALIDATED

We show both numbers. The backtest and the live-expected.

Backtest returns compress in live trading. Slippage, fills, theta, regime shifts — none of them show up in a sim. Honest planning starts with the real expectation.

Backtest methodology: 5-year walk-forward on pinned Alpaca bars, deterministic. Live calibration: avg × 0.5, worst × 1.5, Sharpe × 0.7. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Sharpe ratio risk-adjusted return	1.26	0.88
Avg / year compounded annual	+182%	+91%

Live-expected applies avg × 0.5, worst × 1.5, Sharpe × 0.7 to honest live calibration.

FAQ

Questions you should ask any trading product

If the answer to any of these from another vendor feels evasive, walk away. Including us.

Are you a broker?

No. Trading Arbor is software that connects to your existing brokerage account via official API keys. Your money stays with your broker; we never custody funds.

How much does it cost beyond the subscription?

Just whatever your broker charges per trade. Most plans we connect to (Alpaca, Schwab) are commission-free for equities; options have per-contract fees. We don't take a cut of P&L.

What if I lose money?

You may. Live trading typically compresses to 50-70% of backtest figures, and even backtested years had drawdowns. Position sizing limits per-trade risk to a percentage of equity, but losses are not bounded by your subscription. Trade with risk capital only.

Can I see the strategy code?

The backtest methodology is public + reproducible at /backtest — same pinned bars, deterministic seed, same numbers every run. The shipped engine code lives behind the subscription, but every signal it fires shows the reason in the dashboard.

What happens if your service goes down?

Open positions stay open at your broker — they're not held on our infrastructure. Engines self-heal dead threads; certs renew automatically. If the platform is unreachable, your account keeps whatever positions were live until you (or your broker's risk controls) close them. Status at /health.
