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 Paper Trading Playground 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.
  • Paper Playground — Place virtual 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. Paper Trading Playground

Go to the Paper Playground to place your first virtual 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 paper order.

Paper 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.
