help Stratify FAQ
Does Stratify place real options trades through a brokerage account?
The currently documented Stratify product focuses on strategy building, backtesting, monitoring and paper trading rather than automatic brokerage execution. Users should not assume a simulated order is connected to real capital.
Can Stratify paper-trade a strategy after it has been backtested?
Yes, Stratify documents a workflow for deploying a backtested strategy into paper monitoring during market hours. The simulation can track signals and positions without placing a live brokerage order.
How does Stratify differ from thinkorswim paperMoney?
Stratify emphasizes strategy construction, backtesting and automated monitoring in one workflow. Charles Schwab's thinkorswim paperMoney more closely simulates trading within a full brokerage platform, including options chains and manual orders.
Does a profitable Stratify backtest mean the options strategy will make money?
No, historical results can be distorted by overfitting, data quality, spreads, commissions and unrealistic fills. Paper trading is useful for validation, but it still cannot reproduce every liquidity and execution condition of live options markets.
