License Versions

Andromeda & Andromeda SIM

AgenaTrader is available in two license versions to accommodate different user needs: Andromeda and Andromeda SIM.

⚙️ What's the difference?

Both versions offer identical functionality, including full access to the platform’s professional charting, trading, and automation features. The only difference lies in where and how you can place trades.

💻 Andromeda SIM (Free)

Andromeda SIM is the default license assigned to all users after their first-time setup of AgenaTrader. It is completely free and offers full platform access, but is limited to the following trading environments:

• SimAccount (paper trading)

• ​TradersYard Challenges

• ​AgenaBroker accounts

✅ Ideal for traders who want to test strategies or participate in competitions

❌ Does not allow connections to external brokers

Additionally, you can still connect to data feed providers (only if they are not brokers). They are listed in the Data Feeds section of the documentation.

🚀 Andromeda (Full License)

With a full Andromeda license, you unlock full multibroker capabilities, allowing you to trade with a wide variety of brokers. You can connect to:

• Any broker that supports one of our technology provider connection types

• All brokers listed on our Supported Brokers list

The Andromeda license can be rented directly from our AgenaTrader Shop.

✅ Designed for professional and active traders

✅ Supports live trading with multiple brokers and custom setups
