The story behind RelayDesk

Built by Traders, for Traders.

RelayDesk started as a tool to help us trade while balancing demanding careers. Today it powers thousands of strategies, but the mission is the same: remove emotion, automate execution, and let trading fit your life.

Origin Story

The Problem We Faced

Like many traders, we started by manually placing trades during lunch breaks and stolen moments between meetings. We'd set price alerts on our phones, get distracted during important work tasks, and miss entries by seconds.

The emotional rollercoaster was exhausting. FOMO led to revenge trading. Fear caused us to exit winners too early. We knew our strategies were sound, but our execution was inconsistent.

We needed a way to trade without being glued to our screens.

Why RelayDesk Exists

Why We Built RelayDesk

Automation was the only way to reclaim our schedule and remove emotion from the process. RelayDesk was built for us first, every feature exists because we needed it. The OCO exit engine? Because we were tired of babysitting trailing stops. Risk controls? Because one bad day used to wipe out good weeks.

Now we're sharing it with traders who face the same challenges we did.

What We Stand For

Principles that guide every release

RelayDesk is more than a product. It's a promise to build thoughtful automation for traders who expect discipline and transparency.

Built by Traders

We understand the pain of missing trades while at work because we've lived it. Every feature is designed from real trading experience.

Community First

We're a small team of day traders, engineers, and friends who believe in transparency and building tools that actually solve problems.

Security & Trust

Your API keys are encrypted with AES-256. We never have access to your funds. Your broker holds everything.

No BS Approach

We don't promise get-rich-quick schemes or guaranteed profits. We build reliable tools that execute your strategy without emotions.

Mission

Why we keep building

To help part-time traders execute their strategies with the same discipline and precision as full-time professionals, without sacrificing their careers or sanity.

“Trading should fit into your life, not consume it. That's why we built RelayDesk.”

— Andrew, CEO and Founder
