Strategy Development Process

Our objective is clear, to democratize access to machine learning for retail investors and traders. We believe that every trader should have the tools and insights previously reserved for institutional investors. To achieve this, we leverage advanced techniques like clustering and principal component analysis (PCA) to enhance traditional technical indicators like Relative Strength Index (RSI) and provide actionable insights for profitable trading strategies.

Let's take a closer look at how we utilize these cutting-edge methodologies:

Enhancing RSI with Clustering:

RSI, a widely used technical indicator, is known for identifying overbought and oversold market conditions. However, human biases and misinterpretations can lead to erroneous trading decisions.
Through k-means clustering, a form of unsupervised learning, we eliminate human biases and enhance the predictive power of RSI.
By breaking down RSI readings over a historical period into multiple clusters, we identify patterns and plot the returns associated with each cluster.
Our algorithm then trades based on the cluster with the highest probability of maximizing returns, determined through rigorous backtesting over a comprehensive dataset spanning over a decade.

Take a look at the above graph. The RSI values have been plotted against the returns on Bank Nifty. The algorithm ahs been trained to find the “cluster” of the RSI values which generates the maximum returns. The trades are taken accordingly, depending on the value of RSI. On a manual reading of RSI, one might think that RSI values above 70 is an indication of the overbought market. But the algorithm actually identifies the cluster of RSI values (above 70), which has a higher probability of generating positive return than the negative returns. This is the cluster where the a trader might cut long positions or even go short, but our algorithm suggests going long. These clusters are created by training the over 10 years of data and testing over 3 years of data.

The graph below breaks down the movement of Bank Nifty by clusters identified by the algorithm.

Utilizing PCA to Mitigate Conflicting Signals:

Traders often track multiple technical indicators, leading to conflicting signals and decision paralysis.
We introduce PCA, another unsupervised learning technique, to consolidate various technical indicators into a single, comprehensive indicator.
PCA considers the statistical characteristics of multiple indicators, such as mean and dispersion, to generate a unified signal.
This approach is particularly effective in monitoring diverse market conditions across multiple time frames, enhancing decision-making efficiency and reducing human bias.

Empowering Retail Traders with Data-Driven Insights:

Our platform empowers retail traders with access to sophisticated machine learning algorithms, previously exclusive to institutional investors.
By combining advanced techniques with user-friendly interfaces, we bridge the gap between complex analytics and actionable insights.
Through transparent backtesting and continuous optimization, we ensure that our strategies remain robust and adaptive to evolving market conditions.
