SignBot Signal Fees Explained
What each action costs
SignBot charges per action from wallet credits, with no subscription and no daily signal limit — your usage is bounded only by your balance.
- Backtest: Rs 10 per run, charged before the engine executes
- SignBot virtual trade: Rs 15 entry and Rs 15 exit, so Rs 30 per round trip
- LiveBot real trade: Rs 30 entry and Rs 30 exit, so Rs 60 per round trip
- Strategy creation, the AI Optimizer and Intel: free forever
Details worth knowing
- The backtest fee is taken before the run starts, and is not refunded if the run then fails for want of candle data
- Signal fees are charged on entry and again on exit, so a position that never exits has only been charged once so far
- Fees come from wallet credits, never from virtual money
- For current top-up amounts and bonuses, read the live pricing page rather than any figure quoted in an article — the ladder is administered and changes
Planning your balance
If you intend to run several strategies live, work out the round-trip cost first. Ten LiveBot round trips is Rs 600 in signal fees regardless of whether those trades made money.
Segment rules you should know
SignBot routes every strategy by segment, and the rules genuinely differ:
- NSE equity and F&O support 1min, 3min, 5min, 15min, 30min, 1hr, 4hr and 1day candles
- MCX futures support 1min, 5min, 30min and 1day only — the vendor rejects the others, so they are not offered
- On NSE options SignBot is buy-only. A bullish signal buys a CE, a bearish signal buys a PE, and there is no option writing anywhere in the platform
- Options entry and exit conditions are evaluated on the underlying spot candle, while the position itself is the option contract
- NSE history goes back up to 36 months for backtests; MCX history is limited to 3 months
Try it in SignBot
Put this into practice on your own strategy. Strategy creation and the AI Optimizer are free forever, so you can build and refine the rule before spending anything.
- Open the Strategy Builder and add the condition described above
- Run a backtest on real NSE or MCX history — Rs 10 per run
- Move it to SignBot virtual trading to watch it on live prices — Rs 15 entry and Rs 15 exit from wallet credits, no real money at risk
- Only when it has earned your confidence, run it on LiveBot through your own broker account — Rs 30 entry and Rs 30 exit
Everything described here is part of the platform you already have access to.
