Getting Started

This guide walks you through creating your account, adding your first watchlist, and exploring the AlgoTradingAI dashboard.

1. Create Your Account

Visit /register and sign up with your email or Google account. No credit card is required for the Free plan.

  • Free plan includes 2 symbols and Live Backtesting access.
  • Your account is secured with JWT-based authentication.
  • You can upgrade to a paid plan at any time from the Subscriptions page.

2. Dashboard Overview

After logging in, you land on the Dashboard. The sidebar provides access to all platform features:

  • Watchlist — Add and monitor symbols. Each symbol shows LTP, percent change, volume, and active signals.
  • Dashboard — Summary view of your portfolio, recent signals, and market status.
  • Live Backtesting — Place simulated trades against live market data.
  • AI Advisor — Get AI-powered trade recommendations with full audit trail.
  • ML Predictor — View ML quality scores for candidate trades.
  • Price Forecast — Multi-model fused forecasts across 8 horizons.
  • Trade Signals — Live and closed trade signals with performance stats.
  • Alerts — Configure price and signal alerts.

3. Add Your First Symbol

Navigate to the Watchlist page and use the instrument search to add a symbol (e.g., RELIANCE, NIFTY 50). The autocomplete searches across NSE & BSE equities and F&O instruments.

Once added, the system begins fetching candle data, computing indicators, and generating signals for that symbol.

4. Live Backtesting

Go to Live Backtesting to place your first simulated trade:

  1. Select a symbol from your watchlist.
  2. Enter quantity and price (or use market price).
  3. Optionally set a stop-loss level.
  4. Submit the simulated order.

Simulated trades are tracked with live P&L updates. Intraday positions are flagged for square-off before market close.

5. Connect Your Broker (Optional)

To unlock your full symbol allowance and access real-time tick data, connect your Zerodha account. See the Broker Connection guide for setup instructions.
