Connect Alpaca
Connect an Alpaca paper account to build discipline risk-free, a live account when it counts, or both at once — with the same enforced risk limits and bracket order entry either way.
Start your free trialChoose paper or live when you connect Alpaca — paper is a genuinely risk-free way to build discipline before it counts, and live trades your real account with the same enforced risk limits and fast bracket entry.
Alpaca's own native bracket order type means your target and stop go out attached to the entry in a single request, with real-time fills streamed back the moment they happen.
Alpaca authorizes one account per connection, so a paper and a live account — or several accounts of either kind — connect independently and switch between them from the account picker.
What you get
- Connect paper, live, or both — your choice
- Native bracket orders in a single request
- Real-time order and fill streaming
- Connect multiple Alpaca accounts independently
