The biggest impact Robinhood has had is pushing other brokers to go to zero commission models. I joined before that happened, but I will be moving my trading portfolio elsewhere.

I’m surprised more people on here aren’t using something like https://alpaca.markets. It’s primarily for algo trading, but there’s nothing stopping you from using it generally, as it is an API, after all.

This is awesome, I was just talking to my friend about an API first brokerage. Glad to see someone's already made one.

Wow, I'm surprised I hadn't found this before. I was looking for something exactly like this at some point in the past 6 months and didn't find much, so thanks for sharing this!
