How quickly can i start Algo Trading using tradetron ?

5 minutes. Lets start. Note the time on your watch 


1) Sign up and Login to Tradetron 

2) Go to this strategy

3) Click on Subscribe 

4) Go to "My Strategies" page and find the above strategy under "Subscribed" 

5) Click on Deploy. Choose the default settings of "Paper Trading" and "TT-PaperTrading" as broker (This broker has been added as a default when you sign up) 

6) Go track the strategy on "Deployed" page. If it shows active, means its working well. During India Exchange market hours (9.15 am to 3.30 pm India time) this strategy will take some positions in Nifty Options. 


You have just deployed your first algo strategy. Note the time on your watch again. Hopefully its within 5 minutes. Once you get a hang of the system, you will be able to accomplish this within a minute.


Of Course if you wish to create a strategy, it will take longer and it really depends on how complex your strategy is. To take baby steps in that, you can start off by duplicating a strategy (most strategies listed by Tradetron are allowed for Duplicating), tweaking the conditions / positions and making your own strategy and then deploying that. 


The process to deploy a subscribed strategy or a created strategy remains the same.
