Troubleshooting
Try these checks first. Algoryn Free Paper Beta is for Paper Trading only.
Windows SmartScreen
The Algoryn Free Paper Beta installer may trigger Windows SmartScreen. Do not disable Windows Defender or SmartScreen. Only download Algoryn from https://algoryntrade.com. If you choose to continue with an installer from the official site, use the normal Windows flow: More info → Run anyway. If the Download page provides a SHA-256 value, compare it with your downloaded file.
“Algoryn is already running”
Algoryn uses single-instance protection. Check the taskbar and background for an existing Algoryn instance before trying again. Do not repeatedly start additional trading runtimes.
IBKR connection
Confirm TWS or IB Gateway is open, you are signed in to a Paper Trading account, API access is allowed, and the port configured in Algoryn matches TWS or Gateway. Algoryn Free Paper Beta is Paper Trading Only; use a Paper account, not a Live account.
No market data or missing data
IBKR market data visibility depends on your market data subscriptions, account permissions, instrument, exchange, and current market session. Algoryn cannot bypass IBKR market data permissions.
Options Chain has no data
Check IBKR connectivity, relevant market data permissions, the underlying symbol, expiry availability, and the current market session.
