The AI Strategy Builder

By SignBot · 3 September 2026 · 1 views
The AI Strategy Builder

Describing a strategy in plain English

The AI Builder takes a description in ordinary language and produces a real strategy: conditions, operators, parameters and exit rules, which you can then edit like any manually built strategy. Strategy creation is free forever, so there is no cost to iterating.

What to include in your description

  1. The scrip and the segment you want to trade
  2. The entry condition, as specifically as you can state it
  3. Any confirmation you want before entry
  4. Your exit intent — target, stop loss and whether you want a time exit
  5. The trade type: intraday, BTST, swing or positional

Always read what it produced

The generated strategy is a starting point you own, not an instruction to follow. Open every condition and confirm it says what you meant. An ambiguous description produces a valid strategy that tests something slightly different from what you had in mind, and the backtest will faithfully measure the wrong thing.

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.
