Why Isn’t Tradier Showing as a Paper Broker Option in TradersPost?

If Tradier isn’t appearing as a paper broker option in TradersPost, it likely stems from how it was integrated. When users connect Tradier using the OAuth integration, the paper trading option doesn’t appear. However, if they connect via the API integration, Tradier will show up as a paper broker.

Documentation and Delays

To resolve this, users can refer to the Tradier Broker section in TradersPost’s documentation, which outlines how to properly connect the sandbox paper account. It’s important to note that Tradier’s paper accounts operate with a 15-minute data delay, which can negatively impact backtesting unless you’re trading on higher timeframes like daily charts.
