Hey all, I personally like investing in small United States based companies and i’m just wondering if OTC market support is on the table?

Thanks in advance.

I think it is since that just means under $1.50

I found this for you
Over-the-counter or off-exchange trading is done directly between two parties, without the supervision of an exchange.

Hey @kris!

When you said “done directly between two parties, without the supervision of an exchange”, are you implying it’s not possible for Alpaca to create an api for this?

You would think it is, but it seems it hasn’t made its way yet.

Yes - this should be must for a full fledged API based trading solutions .
Being very volatile up/down 50 % in short span , it makes sense to monitor such price events and place order .

Can we have more people request that Alpaca integrates the OTC markets. I know the massive value it would bring to my operations!!! I’d be able to buy in and be a part owner of alpaca at that rate.

Still eagerly anticipating the OTC integration. All I want for Christmas :christmas_tree: is that.
