Many TradersPost users have requested API access to retrieve account details, positions, trades, and P&L data. While a fully developed API is still in the planning phase, TradersPost is considering rolling out endpoints in stages.
The initial version of the API is expected to include account-level data such as subscription details, strategies, and general account information. Basic trade history access may be available early on, but detailed P&L and analytics data will likely come in later updates.
A phased development approach will guide the rollout, with early versions covering high-level account data before expanding to more detailed trade insights.
How TradersPost Plans to Develop the API
The first version will focus on account-level data. Later iterations will introduce more in-depth trade data, analytics, and P&L tracking.
TradersPost is considering defining API endpoints publicly before they go live, allowing developers to provide feedback on what functionality is most needed. This open development approach will help ensure the API meets trader expectations.
Traders interested in early access or contributing feedback can reach out to the support team.
Why an API Matters for Traders
An official API will allow traders to automate data retrieval, integrate with third-party analytics platforms, and reduce reliance on browser automation or scraping. TradersPost has indicated that scraping account data will likely be restricted in the future, making API access the best way to retrieve account and trade data.
When Will the API Be Available?
While there is no confirmed release date, TradersPost has indicated that development may begin within the next year. Traders who want early access or wish to contribute to the API’s development should contact TradersPost support.
Conclusion
A TradersPost API will provide traders with a more efficient way to access and analyze account data. The phased rollout will start with account-level details before expanding to trade history, P&L, and analytics. Traders interested in API development should stay informed and engage with the team during the planning process.
