Can you automate trading on Alpaca?

Alpaca is the most automation-native broker in the retail market — it was built API-first specifically for programmatic trading, with excellent paper-trading support. Traditionally that meant writing code against its API; no-code platforms remove that step, letting you build strategies visually or in plain English and deploy them to Alpaca (paper or live) without touching the API yourself. Alpaca's paper environment is particularly useful for validation: same API, simulated money, so a strategy can rehearse its full order flow before a single real dollar moves.
