The next evolution of connectivity enables options trading automation, helping traders build consistent trading strategies and remove emotion from execution

PLANTATION, Fla.: TradeStation Securities, Inc. (“TradeStation”), the brokerage firm built for active equity and derivatives traders, today announced the addition of Tradetron Inc.* to its growing ecosystem of third parties integrated with its execution services via API - connecting automated options strategy execution directly into the TradeStation trading environment. The integration connects TradeStation's self-clearing execution infrastructure with Tradetron's automated trading technology, enabling traders to build, test, and execute rules-based strategies with greater speed and precision.

Through Tradetron, traders can build rules-based options strategies†, validate performance in simulated markets, and execute trades through a connected TradeStation brokerage account. The integration comes as Cboe recently reported record-breaking growth in trading of U.S. listed options.‡ According to Cboe Global Markets, it experienced record industry growth as U.S.-listed options volume topped 15.2 billion contracts in 2025, marking the sixth consecutive record year and a 26% increase over 2024.

Traders can construct strategies using a visual builder or select from a library of pre-built models available through Tradetron’s marketplace. Strategies can be forward tested in a simulated environment before going live, giving users a way to evaluate behavior under simulated market conditions prior to executing.

Options traders can design a multi-leg structure with defined entry and exit logic, test it in simulation, and then automate execution once conditions are satisfied, reducing manual steps while retaining full control over position design and risk settings. Once traders take their strategies or automated executions to a live market through TradeStation, they should understand the risks of those trades and monitor any automated executions. Automated trading strategies involve risks; see the risk disclosure in the footnote below.§

“Options traders looking for ways to systematize their strategies need precision in execution,” said John Bartleman, President and CEO of TradeStation Securities' parent company, TradeStation Group, Inc. “This integration provides a way to automate their strategies, test them, and execute when conditions are met, while still maintaining full control over how those strategies are built and managed.”

"TradeStation's infrastructure gives our users a powerful new venue to deploy automated options strategies with the kind of reliability and consistency that serious traders demand. We see this integration as a meaningful step forward for traders who want to bring more discipline and precision to how they execute," said Umesh Ranglani, CEO of Tradetron.
