At Marketcalls, we are dedicated to the principles of open-source software and the community that thrives on it. OpenAlgo, our algorithmic trading platform, is a testament to this commitment. We understand that there have been concerns and discussions within our community regarding potential charges for using OpenAlgo, and we want to clarify our stance unequivocally.
OpenAlgo for Retail Users: Always Free
From its inception, OpenAlgo was designed to be an open-source project, freely available to all retail users. We believe that access to advanced trading tools should not be restricted by financial barriers. Our platform, therefore, remains free and open-source, governed by the AGPL3 License. This ensures that anyone can use, modify, and distribute OpenAlgo, fostering innovation and collaboration within the trading community.
Customization and Proprietary Features
While the core of OpenAlgo will always be free for retail users, we recognize that some users may have specific needs that go beyond the standard offering. For proprietary trading desks or those requiring unique customizations, we do offer specialized services. These custom solutions are tailored to meet the intricate demands of professional trading environments and are provided at a cost to cover the development and support required.
Our Commitment to the Community
We want to assure our users that Marketcalls will not monetize OpenAlgo for retail users. Our dedication to the open-source community is steadfast, and we believe that keeping OpenAlgo accessible and free is crucial for fostering a vibrant and innovative ecosystem.
Addressing Issues and Continuous Improvement
We are aware that some users have faced issues, such as login errors with certain brokers. For better tracking and faster resolution, we encourage you to raise any issues directly on our GitHub repository: https://github.com/marketcalls/openalgo/issues. Our team is committed to providing robust support and continuous improvements to ensure that OpenAlgo remains a reliable and powerful tool for all users.
OpenAlgo’s mission is to democratize access to advanced trading technology. We stand by our promise to keep the platform free for retail users while offering premium services for those who need specialized solutions. Together, we can continue to build and enhance an open-source platform that benefits everyone in the trading community.
Thank you for your trust and support.
