The wedge

Indian retail trading has two extremes. We sit between them.

You either pay ₹3,000/month to a Telegram tipster with a fake P&L screenshot, or ₹50,000/month for an institutional terminal you can't afford. We built the missing middle: real backtests, real code, real CAGR — at retail-trader pricing.

Side A

Tipster Telegram groups

Loud, vague, and unverifiable. The "85% accuracy" claim doesn't survive a single backtest.

  • Screenshot P&L, no proof
  • Tips after the move
  • Survivor bias in testimonials
  • Zero exit discipline
QuantInd

Systems, not signals.

Rules-based strategies with public backtests, Streak-ready code, and weekly equity-curve updates.

  • Open backtest from 2015→today
  • Pine Script + Streak code
  • Sharpe, drawdown, slippage
  • Walk-forward validated
Side B

Institutional terminals

Bloomberg, Refinitiv, QuantConnect Pro — built for funds, not the trader running a ₹5L account.

  • ₹50k+/month minimum
  • Steep learning curve
  • US/Europe market bias
  • No India-first data
The strategies

Four systems. All backtested. All live.

Each strategy ships with a Pine Script v5/v6 file, a Streak-ready blueprint, a 10-year backtest, and a weekly equity-curve update. Returns shown are net of brokerage and 0.05% slippage per trade.

How it works

From hypothesis to live capital in four moves.

Every QuantInd strategy passes through the same four-stage funnel before it's published. We deploy our own capital on every system before we ship it to subscribers.

01 / RESEARCH

Hypothesis

We start with a market behaviour we've observed — gap-fade, opening-range break, sector lead-lag — and write it down as a falsifiable rule.

02 / BACKTEST

Walk-forward

10 years of NSE 1-min data. In-sample tuned, out-of-sample tested. Slippage and brokerage modelled.

03 / DEPLOY

Streak / Kite

Code ships as Pine Script and Streak-ready blueprint. You paste it into your account. We never touch your money.

04 / MONITOR

Weekly review

Equity curves updated every Sunday. Underperforming systems get killed. Subscribers get the post-mortem.

Field notes

Research, not opinions.

The QuantInd journal — weekly long-form research on Indian markets. Data-first, ego-free, and free for everyone.

Why Nifty's opening 15 minutes contain 41% of the day's edge.

A decade of 1-min data tells one story very clearly: if you trade the first 15 minutes well, the rest of the day is mostly noise. We backtest seven opening-range strategies and one of them is embarrassingly profitable.

"

I started trading the Indian markets the same way most people do — on tips, on hope, and on the assumption that someone in a Telegram group knew something I didn't.

After enough losses, I did what an engineer should have done from day one: write down the rule, backtest it, and let the data argue back.

QuantInd is what I wish had existed when I started — real backtests, real code, on real Indian markets, at a price a retail trader can actually afford.
