Can I use free proxy lists?

Never for trading — public proxies are compromised, logged, and instantly blocked by broker security.

HGW Proxy vs Static IP for Trading (Home Gateway / VPN)

Home gateway proxy vs static IP for trading — why VPN, HWG proxy and shared proxies fail broker whitelists compared to dedicated Algo-IP Mumbai addresses.

Home gateway / HWG proxy vs dedicated static IP

Some traders route bots through home router proxies or LAN gateways (HWG). Consumer gateways use dynamic ISP addresses that rotate — the same failure mode as direct home broadband. A dedicated static IP decouples your bot from home network churn.

VPN vs static IP for broker APIs

VPN IPs are shared — thousands of users, frequent blacklists
VPN exit nodes rotate — breaks mid-session tokens
Brokers geo-flag datacenter VPN ranges
Dedicated static IP is single-tenant and Indian Mumbai origin

What Algo-IP provides instead

Fixed IPv4/IPv6, proxy auth, 200 GB bandwidth, broker directory of 177 APIs, KYC-verified provisioning. Route from any machine — home PC, VPS, webhook server — without exposing dynamic home IP to broker.
