In a recent interview with Kevin Harrington, an original Shark from Shark Tank, Tickblaze’s CEO Sean Kozak shared insights into what makes their platform a game-changer for traders. Tickblaze is the world’s first multi-asset “Hybrid Trading Platform,” combining the power needed for quants with the simplicity retail traders require.
The Genesis of the Hybrid Platform
When asked about his journey to becoming the CEO of Tickblaze, Sean Kozak explained the inspiration behind the platform. “As the owner of multiple trading brands developing on all the top trading platforms, I witnessed how difficult it was for traders to get everything they needed all in one place,” Kozak stated. He and his partners aimed to create a platform to eliminate these pain points. This vision led to the acquisition of Tickblaze, a cutting-edge trading platform founded by Daniel Tochner. “Alongside my partners and supporting investors, we acquired Tickblaze and are ecstatic to go head-to-head alongside the top players in the space,” Kozak added.
What Sets Tickblaze Apart
One of the significant issues traders face is the need to use multiple software providers to trade manually and automate their strategies. Tickblaze solves this by offering a hybrid platform catering to retail and automated traders. “The problem, from our perspective, is that most traders want the ability to either trade manually or to automate their strategies, which forces them to use multiple software providers to accomplish this,” Kozak explained. Tickblaze’s unique approach provides a 2-in-1 solution, making it easier and more efficient for traders to operate.
User-Friendly for All Traders
Even new traders can find success with Tickblaze, thanks to its user-friendly design. “Trading is already difficult; using technology shouldn’t be,” Kozak emphasized. The platform allows traders to be up and running with live data directly on their charts in less than five minutes. There is no complicated setup process, and all trading layouts are pre-configured to ensure comfort for even the newest traders. Additionally, Tickblaze offers free live trading classes daily, directly on the platform, enhancing the learning experience.
Market Data Advantage
Tickblaze also provides a significant market data advantage that can save traders hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars annually. Unlike other platforms that mark up fees to benefit from exchange revenue, Tickblaze passes these savings back to its users. “It’s like getting a cell phone that already comes with your data plan included,” Kozak said. This innovative approach removes financial barriers, allowing traders to focus on their strategies without worrying about additional costs.
A Vibrant Community
Another standout feature of Tickblaze is its vibrant peer-to-peer (P2P) open-source community. This community enables traders, educators, and developers to share, learn, and grow together using C# and Python indicators and algorithms. “Trading can be lonely and expensive, and our community solves both pain points for everyone,” Kozak noted. This community aspect fosters collaboration and continuous learning, making trading a more inclusive and supportive activity.
Automated Trading: A Key Differentiator
One critical element that sets Tickblaze apart from its competitors is its automated trading capabilities. Most traders struggle because they are unsure if their strategies work. Tickblaze addresses this by allowing users to quickly build, test, and automate their strategies. “You can build, test, and automate your trading strategies quickly using our quant desktop and see firsthand your trading strategies’ performance,” Kozak said. For those new to automated trading, Tickblaze offers a pre-built library of trading strategies that can be used immediately, providing traders with a data-driven edge rather than gambling in the markets.
Conclusion: a Hybrid Platform for Everyone
Tickblaze, the Hybrid Platform, is more than just a trading platform; it’s a revolutionary tool designed to simplify and enhance the trading experience. Whether you’re a retail trader looking for an intuitive interface or an institutional client needing robust automated trading capabilities, Tickblaze has something to offer. Join the future of trading today with Tickblaze and transform the way you trade.

CFTC RULE 4.41 – Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.
