## About

Alpaca’s ChatGPT Plugin provides direct access to paper trading execution via Alpaca's Trading API and Market Data API. 

Connect ChatGPT to your Alpaca paper account to place simulated trades across stocks, ETFs, options, and crypto. Monitor your positions, analyze market trends, and manage your account through natural language.

Insights generated by Alpaca’s MCP server, ChatGPT plugin and connected AI agents are for educational and informational use only and not investment advice. Do your own due diligence before making decisions.

AlpacaDB, Inc.’s Paper Trading API uses simulated funds and does not enable transactions in real securities.

The API is not offered in jurisdictions where AlpacaDB, Inc. or its affiliates (collectively, “Alpaca”) are not authorized to conduct business.

Options trading is not suitable for all investors due to its inherent high risk, which can potentially result in significant losses. Please read Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options (https://www.theocc.com/Company-Information/Documents-and-Archives/Options-Disclosure-Document) before investing in options.
