What is an API?

An application programming interface is a method of interaction between two or more computer programs. It is a set of subprogram definitions, interaction protocols, and tools for creating software.

How does it work:

API provides access exclusively for sending orders through the trading platform.
!!! The API does not provide access to quotes!!! In practice, this means that to send a limit order, you must either:
Write the price manually
Take data from another source of quotes

It is possible to send market orders through an automated trading platform without having access to quotes.
 

Our company provides APIs for the following trading platforms:
Alpha Trader
Sterling Trader Pro
DAS
 

Alpha Trader API

Working with API is possible via any Web-browser using just its address line.
Use code examples to implement custom scripts.

Examples provided in Python and C# but any language with native HTTP client library is supported.

More information can be found directly on the website of our partners who provide API for Alpha Trader
