  Alta5 is the technology brand of Option Alpha, LLC, a St. Petersburg,
  Florida company (founded 2010) that operates optionalpha.com, a no-code
  automated options-and-stock trading platform for retail traders. Users build
  "bots" from natural-language recipes that discover, backtest, and automate
  trading strategies, then connect a brokerage account (TradeStation, Tradier,
  Charles Schwab, tastytrade) so bots submit trades through the broker's API.
  Option Alpha does not publish a general-purpose public REST API; its only
  programmatic integration surface is inbound trigger Webhooks, which let
  external platforms such as TradingView, TrendSpider, and Zapier fire bot
  automations from custom signals and indicators. Alta5 was added to the API
  Evangelist network as a 500 Global portfolio company.
