Webull: 2 things that work differently
-

Webull has no paper mode on TradersPost. Rehearse a strategy on the TradersPost paper broker first, or start with small live sizes.
-
Orders Day and GTC are the only times in force
Webull accepts Day and GTC orders only.

Webull automation questions
- How do I connect TradingView to Webull?
- Connect Webull with OAuth, subscribe it to a stocks strategy, and point the TradingView alert at that strategy webhook. You do not generate Webull API credentials in TradersPost.
