Why use REST API?

REST API enables you to automate your trading by connecting your algo strategies with our deep liquidity.

Know the acronym

REST stands for "Representational State Transfer' and utilizes HTTP interactions to communicate between client and server in a user-friendly way.

Wide range of utility

REST API’s use of HTTP means it can work with any standard programming language to retrieve, send, update, and delete data.

Constantly learning

REST is cacheable, meaning the API can cache resources to improve future performance

Secure communication channels

REST features stateless client-server communications that ensure no information is being stored between interactions

What is Capitalise.ai?

Capitalise.ai is a simple-to-use, plain-English strategy creator, enabling you to develop automated trading strategies, backtest and trade, without needing advanced programming knowledge.

An easy way to backtest

With Capitalise.ai, you can backtest your strategy against historical data. This means you can find out what would have happened had you gone live with your strategy months ago – giving you a feel for your edge in a market.

The backtest functionality offered by Capitalise.ai has inherent limitations that may cause the actual percentage gains/loss experienced by investors to be materially different than the percentage gain/losses presented on the Capitalise.ai backtested results. The price feed which is used to perform back test results is a composite feed provided by Capitalise, which may vary from the tradable price feed relative to your account. The backtested results do not factor in additional trading costs such as commissions. Click here for more information about the limitations of relying on hypothetical results.
