From Setup to Automated in 4 Steps

 STEP 1 — Connect Your Brokerage Account 

AlgoEdge runs on Alpaca Markets — a free, commission-free brokerage built for automated trading. You open your own account directly with Alpaca, fund it, and generate an API key. Your money stays in your account. AlgoEdge never has access to your funds — "we only have permission to execute trades per the rules configured in your bot" Don't have an Alpaca account? We walk you through the setup step by step.

STEP 2 — Choose Your Bot

Select the strategy (or strategies) that match your trading style:

- Iron Condor Bot — range-bound income

- Put Credit Spread — consistent premium collection 

- IV Crusher Bot — earnings volatility plays

-ITM Debit Call Spread Bot --Directional momentum trades defined risk, leveraged upside when the move is there

Not sure which one is right for you? Ask your trading coach or educator they know your risk tolerance and goals better than anyone.

STEP 3 — Choose Your Symbols -Pick your symbols, entrance, exit, take profit and stop loss. — You decide what to trade.  AlgoEdge executes — we never pick symbols or give investment advice. We paper trade test before launching on your live account.

You tell us which symbols you want the bot to monitor. AlgoEdge does not recommend symbols or provide investment advice. The symbols you choose are entirely your decision — based on your own research, your trading community, or your educator's guidance.

STEP 4 — We Deploy and You're Live

We configure your bot, connect it to your Alpaca account, and run a test to confirm everything is working. From that point forward, the bot handles entries, position management, and exits automatically — 24/5, market hours only. You'll receive a push notification on your phone every time a trade fires. You can watch it work — or just check in when it's convenient.
