TradeStation Securities, Inc. (“TradeStation”), the brokerage firm built for active equity and derivatives traders, today announced an integration with QuantWheel*, an options† trading platform for directional and income-focused traders. The integration builds on TradeStation’s reputation for delivering high-end trading technology and reliable brokerage services within an advanced trading ecosystem and underscores the company’s commitment to sophisticated traders.

Through the integration, TradeStation clients can analyze opportunities, trade, and track positions without leaving QuantWheel. Directional traders can review dealer positioning and live options flow, then find calls, puts, and spreads, while income-focused traders can screen for cash-secured puts, covered calls, and credit spreads and see which positions are near assignment. Orders the trader approves go directly to TradeStation for execution, with spreads and poor man’s covered calls (PMCCs) sent as a single order, and positions sync to QuantWheel’s options journal.

“Options traders often move between separate tools to analyze the market, identify a trade, place an order, and manage the resulting position,” said John Bartleman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TradeStation Securities’ parent company, TradeStation Group, Inc. “Our integration with QuantWheel creates a more connected experience, giving TradeStation clients another way to move from analysis to execution while maintaining control over every order they place.”

QuantWheel also offers QW Intelligence, an AI assistant that uses a trader’s positions and cost basis to answer portfolio-related questions and perform recurring checks. The platform supports Model Context Protocol (MCP) and API connectivity with external AI tools and workflows.‡

“Working with the TradeStation team has been a great experience from day one,” said Ivan Orehovec, co-founder of QuantWheel. “A qualifying TradeStation client can now get our full Quant plan at no cost and pay $0 per contract on non-index options placed through QuantWheel.”

“What we want to bring to options traders through this collaboration with TradeStation is simplicity and innovation,” said Luka Knezic, co-founder of QuantWheel. “Our goal is to make it easier to move from understanding the market to finding a trade, placing the order, and managing the position in one workflow.”

The integration reflects TradeStation’s continued investment in a connected trading ecosystem. Whether they trade on one platform or several, traders can access the markets and execute their strategies through TradeStation Desktop, TradeStation Mobile, or an open API that supports custom workflows and third-party connectivity, giving them the flexibility to build a setup that fits their strategy.

TradeStation clients can receive QuantWheel’s full Quant plan at no cost. Enjoy $0 stocks & equity options contracts, a $0.75 index option fee, no contract limits, and no assignment fees. For more information on how to qualify, visit https://www.tradestation.com/promo/quantwheel/.

Directional traders can see where dealers are positioned, including gamma levels and live options flow, before they pick a side. Trades are placed from the same screen and executed by TradeStation, and every position is tracked in a synced journal that keeps true cost basis through rolls and assignments. QW Intelligence, QuantWheel’s AI assistant, works from each trader’s own positions to answer questions and run recurring checks. MCP and API access connect the platform to the AI tools traders already use.
