Availability
Broker connections are live: you can link your own account at Dhan, Zerodha, Upstox, Fyers, Angel One, Groww, ICICI Direct, 5paisa or Alice Blue today. Live order placement is being switched on account by account: every order is checked on our servers (kill switch, per-order and daily limits, duplicate protection), sent from the static IP registered on your broker account, and recorded with its full history. Once it's on, you take a strategy live with one Go Live button: it keeps running on MyAlgoAgent and sends its orders to your broker. Until it's on for you, you build strategies, backtest them and forward test them on new market data.
Broker connection
You create a free API app on your broker's developer site, paste the Redirect URL we give you, paste your API key and secret on the Broker Connections page, and log in on your broker's own page — your password, PIN and 2FA are never entered on MyAlgoAgent. (Groww works slightly differently: you approve your key on Groww each day — or choose automatic login with Groww's API TOTP key — instead of logging in through a redirect. With Upstox you can also approve with a tap on your phone.) The platform verifies the connection with your broker before marking it connected.
Your API key, secret and each day's session token are encrypted with AES-256 before they're stored and are never sent to the browser. Broker sessions end every day by exchange rules, so you log in once each trading day. Placing live orders needs a static IP registered on your broker account (a SEBI rule) — on a paid plan your own static IP is created for you automatically within a couple of minutes, the Live Trading page shows you the exact IP to register, and a readiness check confirms your broker, login and IP are all in order without placing any order.

Before a strategy can trade live
- Live trading switched on for your account, with your risk limits and kill switch in place
- Logged in at your broker today, and a passed readiness check (it places no order)
- An explicit risk acknowledgment each time you press Go Live
- Orders are sent automatically when your own rules fire — every rule, the capital and the broker are yours to set
- You can pause, resume, exit the position or stop a live strategy at any time
Order & state management
- Order lifecycle tracking: pending, submitted, open, filled, partially filled, rejected, cancelled, failed
- Client-generated order IDs mapped to broker order IDs for traceability
- Duplicate-order prevention and idempotent order processing
- State reconciliation after a connection loss, so positions stay accurate
- A clear LIVE indicator shown throughout the interface whenever real capital is at risk
Safety behavior
If a broker API, market-data feed or internal service becomes unavailable, the platform is designed to fail safe — stopping new order placement rather than guessing — and to alert the user. A global emergency kill switch can halt all live strategies immediately.
