compatible brokers

TradeStation or Interactive Brokers

We recommend Interactive Brokers as the best broker/software with TradeStation being a close second place - both are excellent brokers with competitive commissions, the platforms are very stable and work well with automated trading systems.

PROTERYX systems are compatible with numerous brokers, including OEC, Interactive Brokers, AMP, Tradestation, Dorman Trading, Futures Online etc.

You use your own broker so you have the complete day to day control over your own account. Don’t give away this control to an underperforming fund manager as they will often tie you up for a year or two; we believe every investor should have access to their money at any time!
