Verdict

Option Alpha builds no-code options bots with backtesting, paper trading and templates, and places orders at a connected broker: Tradier, TradeStation, tastytrade or Charles Schwab. It costs $99 a month billed yearly, or nothing if you keep a qualifying balance at a partner broker ($3,000–$10,000), and charges no commissions itself. It is software, not a broker or adviser.

PROS+ No-code options bots and templates+ Free with a qualifying partner-broker account+ Backtesting and paper trading
CONS− $99/mo otherwise− Free plan needs $3k–$10k at a partner broker− No live broker for Canada
