Alta5

Alta5 is the technology brand of Option Alpha, LLC, a St. Petersburg, Florida company (founded 2010) that operates optionalpha.com, a no-code automated options-and-stock trading platform for retail traders. Users build "bots" from natural-language recipes that discover, backtest, and automate trading strategies, then connect a brokerage account (TradeStation, Tradier, Charles Schwab, tastytrade) so bots submit trades through the broker's API. Option Alpha does not publish a general-purpose public REST API; its only programmatic integration surface is inbound trigger Webhooks, which let external platforms such as TradingView, TrendSpider, and Zapier fire bot automations from custom signals and indicators. Alta5 was added to the API Evangelist network as a 500 Global portfolio company.

Alta5 is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Trading, Options, Automated Trading, and Fintech.

The Alta5 catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Alta5’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, changelog, and 11 more developer resources.
