TradeZero on Tradetron.

What you can trade
US stocks, ETFs and options. Exchanges in Tradetron's broker catalog for TradeZero: NYSE, Nasdaq, Cboe BZX Options and Cboe Options Exchange.
How it trades
Your strategy runs on Tradetron and sends its orders to your own TradeZero account through the connection you approve. Your money stays at TradeZero; Tradetron never holds client funds.
Test first
Add TradeZero PT (Connect-Trade) from the broker list to link a TradeZero paper account, the same way. Live Offline also runs a strategy on live prices and records every entry and exit without sending an order.
Price
The free plan lets you build a strategy and run it in Live Offline. Paid US plans add live trading, from $15 a month (Starter, 1 live strategy). TradeZero's own commissions and fees still apply. See pricing.
Building a strategy
No code: the strategy builder, the Option Wizard for multi-leg options, or plain English through Tradetron's connector for Claude and ChatGPT (how it works).

Risk disclosure. Trading stocks and options carries a substantial risk of loss, and options can lose their full value quickly. Automated strategies can place orders you did not expect; check a strategy in Live Offline before it trades real money. Tradetron is a software platform, not a broker or an investment adviser, and nothing on this page is investment advice. TradeZero is a separate company; its names and marks belong to it.
