Thank you for your feedback. The Alpaca and Yahoo Finance APIs are provided as examples for convenience to help users get started with PyBroker, as they offer free data. However, PyBroker is data source agnostic, and it is possible to load data from any provider into a Pandas DataFrame and use it with PyBroker. See this notebook on creating custom data sources: https://www.pybroker.com/en/latest/notebooks/7.%20Creating%2...

WRT trade execution, PyBroker is currently only designed for backtesting and analysis right now.
