About

NotionalGate is a paper-first trading operations platform for systematic equity and options strategies. It separates signal generation from execution readiness and enforces strict pre-trade validation before any automation can run. The platform integrates Alpaca for equities and Tradier for options. It maintains a unified control layer for strategy parameters, broker-specific risk constraints, and execution policies. Core capabilities: Centralized strategy configuration You define signals, sizing rules, and constraints once. The system applies them consistently across brokers. Broker-aware risk controls: Position limits, buying power checks, and order validation adapt to each API’s semantics.Real-time readiness checks:The system continuously evaluates data integrity, connectivity, capital sufficiency, and market state before allowing execution. Paper account state tracking: You get accurate balance, exposure, and PnL views across both equities and options workflows.Options liquidity validation:The platform screens spreads, open interest, and volume before permitting order simulation. Lifecycle evidence collection:Every decision point is logged. Signals, validations, and simulated executions are recorded for audit and review. Hard safety gates: Automation remains disabled by default. Promotion to live trading requires explicit configuration and passing all readiness criteria. Net effect: You get a controlled environment to validate strategies under realistic constraints. The system reduces operational risk, exposes failure modes early, and provides traceable evidence before any capital is deployed.
