Trade Links ​

Best for: blogs, newsletters, research providers, creator communities, Discord servers, and any product that wants to add trading without server-side integration work.

Trade Links are the fastest way to turn your investing content into an actionable trading experience.

If your strength is:

  • publishing trade ideas
  • sharing due diligence
  • running a paid investing community
  • writing newsletters
  • building watchlists and research tools

...you probably don't want to spend months building brokerage integrations and trading UIs. Trade Links let you skip all of that and still offer a real trading experience to your followers.

Just share a link with the ticker and trade details (buy/sell, amount, order type, etc.), and your users open a prefilled trading page on Trade It. They can sign up, connect a brokerage, and place the trade in seconds.

This is the "start today" path.

Example 1: Simple Buy Order ​

txt
https://tradeit.app/t/AAPL?tt=0&t=buy&a=100&u=dollars&ot=market&tif=day

Example 2: Bracket Order ​

Attach entry & exit criteria to a simple Buy entry so the resulting long position opens at a given price and closes automatically. Sell and options do not support bracket orders. Support varies by brokerage (see Supported Brokerages).
