Synpath

Quick answers

What does it cost?

The SDK has an MIT code license; a complete hosted-service price schedule was not found, and venue charges remain separate.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Does it trade for me?

Your library can send orders; persistent managed orders require the engine you run and authorize.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Where do my funds sit?

The docs say credentials and execution stay on your own machine/server, with funds at the relevant venue.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

What do I need to start?

A suitable runtime, eligible venue credentials and a hosted API key only for services that require it.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Where is it available?

A developer tool and self-hosted service, subject to each connected venue’s account and regional requirements.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Overview

Trading mode

The library submits instructed orders. An independently running self-hosted engine is required for orders that must trigger after the initiating script exits; installing a library alone is not active automation.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Funding and prerequisites

A supported development/runtime environment, eligible venue accounts and local trading credentials. Hosted services have separate API keys and usage limits; numerical hosted pricing and quotas were not found in the reviewed pages.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

What it offers

• Unified identifiers

  Use a common market and outcome model when reading supported venues or submitting venue-specific orders.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

• Direct library orders

  The docs describe plain Python orders going from the user’s machine to the venue without a Synpath execution intermediary.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

• Self-hosted managed orders

  Stops, trailing orders, time-spread orders and other monitored behaviors require the user’s engine to keep running.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

• Cross-venue buckets

  Represent related venue markets under one trading instrument and route according to available net prices, without assuming every market has identical rules.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

• Journal and risk checks

  The engine describes an action journal, pre-trade limits and a separate ledger for each strategy book.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

How it works

Trading mode

The library submits instructed orders. An independently running self-hosted engine is required for orders that must trigger after the initiating script exits; installing a library alone is not active automation.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Delivery channels

Python SDK, Self-hosted REST API, WebSocket and gRPC streams, Hosted matching API

Markets supported

Getting started

What you need first

A supported development/runtime environment, eligible venue accounts and local trading credentials. Hosted services have separate API keys and usage limits; numerical hosted pricing and quotas were not found in the reviewed pages.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Safety and terms

Custody and keys

The docs say venue credentials stay on the user’s machine or self-hosted server and orders go directly to venues. Hosted API keys for data/matching are separate from venue trading credentials.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Terms, privacy and eligibility

Terms:

Scope:

The terms restrict resale or redistribution of hosted data/API access and make venue eligibility the user’s responsibility. These are distinct from the SDK code license.
