does anyone know the answer to the title question? i have heard both - you can run multiple algos / you can only run a single algo.

one per Robinhood account. And Robinhood takes forever approving additional accounts.

As many quantopian accounts as you can make. 1 account per robinhood account. you could have 5 quantopian accounts control 1 account
THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED, JUST BECAUSE IT WORKS DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL ALWAYS WORK.

robinhood approved my second acct pretty quickly.

Robinhood approved my second account pretty quickly also. I had to contact and I let them know that I was running algos through Quantopian and it was ok'd in a day.

thanks everyone!

@Jacob, that's interesting. I hadn't thought of that. But people need to Be aware You'd still have to deliberately design the algos to not step on each others' toes, as things like positions and cost basis will be shared across them.

Just got this from Robinhood:

Thanks for signing up with Robinhood!

We noticed you have multiple Robinhood accounts. Unfortunately we can
only support one account per customer at this time.
