HOW IT WORKS

Four Steps to Automated Trading

1
Open an Alpaca account
Sign up at alpaca.markets — it’s free. Choose a paper account to test risk-free, or a live account for real trading.
2
Come back to AlgoSurf
Once your Alpaca account is open, return to this page and click Connect Paper or Connect Live — whichever you opened.
3
Authorize via OAuth
Alpaca will ask you to grant AlgoSurf permission to place trades. We can execute orders — we cannot withdraw or transfer funds.
4
Watch the algo trade
DeltaSurf v2 generates TSLA signals and routes them to your connected account. Track every fill on the live dashboard.
IMPORTANT

Please dedicate this Alpaca account to AlgoSurf only. The algorithm holds a single instrument — TSLA — and manages position sizing based on the full account equity. Do not hold other positions or run other strategies on the same account, as it will interfere with the algorithm’s sizing and risk management. We recommend opening a dedicated Alpaca account for algorithmic trading.

WHAT TO EXPECT

How the Algorithm Trades Your Account

One instrument — TSLA only
The algorithm trades Tesla (TSLA) and nothing else. Your Alpaca account should be dedicated to this strategy — do not hold other stocks, ETFs, or options in the connected account. Multi-instrument support is on the roadmap; it is not available today.
Regular trading hours only
Trades are generated and executed during regular U.S. market hours (9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET). No overnight risk — the account is fully liquidated to cash by the end of each trading day.
5-minute bars, not high-frequency
DeltaSurf v2 evaluates signals on 5-minute candles. Positions are held for a reasonable period of time — this is not a lightning-fast HFT system. Latency between signal generation and execution in your account is typically a few seconds and is not critical to the strategy.
Small price differences vs. the live dashboard
The public dashboard shows the algorithm’s own reference fills. Because your order routes through your Alpaca account with a small execution delay, your entry and exit prices may differ slightly from what you see on the dashboard. These differences are typically small and do not materially affect results over time.
Fully automated — hands-off
Once connected, the algorithm enters, manages, and exits positions on its own: entries, flips, stop-loss ($5K daily), profit-exit ($5K daily), and end-of-day liquidation to cash. You don’t need to place any orders yourself.
You remain in control
Your capital stays in your Alpaca account the entire time. You can pause the bot, disconnect the account, or revoke AlgoSurf’s OAuth access from your Alpaca dashboard at any moment — trading stops immediately.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do I open the Alpaca account or does AlgoSurf?
You open it yourself at alpaca.markets. Alpaca is your brokerage; AlgoSurf is the execution software that connects to it. After your Alpaca account is created, return here and click Connect to link it.
Should I start with paper or live?
We recommend starting with a paper account to see how the algorithm performs risk-free. Once you’re comfortable with the strategy, open a live Alpaca account and connect that instead.
Is my money safe?
Your capital stays in your own Alpaca brokerage account at all times. AlgoSurf only has trade execution permissions — it cannot withdraw, transfer, or access your funds. Live Alpaca accounts are SIPC-protected.
Can I use the Alpaca account for other trading too?
No — please don’t. The algorithm sizes TSLA positions based on full account equity and buying power. Other holdings or manual trades will interfere with sizing and risk management. Dedicate one Alpaca account to AlgoSurf and use a separate account for your other trading.
What if I want to stop?
You can pause or disconnect at any time from the Accounts page. When disconnected, all trading stops immediately. You can also revoke access from your Alpaca dashboard.
Is this investment advice?
No. AlgoSurf provides automated trading software. We are not a registered investment advisor and do not provide investment advice. You are responsible for your own trading decisions and should understand the risks of algorithmic trading.
Will this cost money in the future?
We plan to introduce a subscription model once the algorithm’s track record is established. Early adopters who connect during the free period will be grandfathered into favorable terms.
