Algo Trading Software Development Company
SkyInfitech is an algo trading software development company. We develop software that automates rule-based trading strategies, from strategy logic and signal generation to broker connectivity, order management, risk controls and live monitoring dashboards.
Whether you are a trader with a proven set of rules, a fintech building an automated trading platform, or a broker offering algo tools to clients, our algorithmic trading developers turn your strategy into reliable, well-tested software that you fully own.
Important: We develop software that automates rule-based trading strategies. Actual trading performance depends on the strategy, market conditions, execution environment and other factors. We do not provide investment advice and do not guarantee any trading results.
What Is Algorithmic Trading Software?
Algorithmic trading software, or algo trading software, is a program that follows a defined set of rules to decide when to place, modify or exit trades, and then sends those orders to a broker automatically. The rules can be based on price, time, technical indicators, volume, spreads, options data or any measurable condition.
A complete algo trading platform does much more than run a strategy. It needs reliable market data, a strategy engine, risk checks before every order, connectivity to one or more brokers, order tracking, logs, alerts and dashboards. Good automated trading software removes manual delays and emotional decisions from execution, while keeping humans in control through limits and monitoring.

How Algo Trading Software Works
Our algorithmic trading software follows a controlled, step-by-step flow, so every automated action is checked, logged and visible.
Strategy
Your trading rules are coded into a strategy module with configurable parameters.
Signal
The strategy engine reads live market data and generates a buy, sell, modify or exit signal when conditions are met.
Risk check
Each signal passes pre-trade risk controls such as quantity, exposure and daily loss limits. Signals that break a rule are blocked and logged.
Order
Approved signals become correctly formatted orders with the right type, quantity and price.
Broker API
Orders are sent securely to the broker through its official trading API.
Execution
The system tracks fills, partial fills and rejections, and reconciles positions with the broker.
Monitoring
Dashboards, logs and alerts show what every strategy is doing in real time, with a kill switch always available.
Core Components of Our Algo Trading Software
Custom Strategy Development
We convert your trading rules into precise, testable code. You define the logic: entry and exit conditions, instruments, timeframes, position sizing and stop rules. Our algo trading developers translate it into a clean, documented strategy module, clarify any ambiguous rules with you and make every parameter configurable, so you can adjust settings without changing code.
We can automate strategies based on technical indicators, price action, time-based rules, options structures, spreads and pairs, portfolio rebalancing or any other rule-based logic you provide. Strategy ownership and logic stay with you, and we sign NDAs to protect your intellectual property.
Strategy Engine
The strategy engine is the core of the system. It receives market data, runs each active strategy, tracks its state and decides what action to take. Our engines support:
- Running multiple strategies at the same time across instruments and accounts
- Event-driven processing on every tick or on candle close
- Scheduled start and stop times, and square-off rules at the end of the session
- Configurable parameters per strategy, per account and per instrument
- Safe restart and state recovery after a disconnect or server restart
Signal Generation
Signal generation turns market data into clear trading instructions. The software calculates indicators and conditions in real time and produces buy, sell, modify or exit signals with full details: instrument, quantity, order type and price. Signals can trigger orders automatically, be sent for one-click manual approval, or simply be delivered as alerts, depending on how much automation you want.
Backtesting
Before any strategy goes live, it should be tested on historical data. Our backtesting module replays past market data through the same strategy logic and reports trades, equity curve, drawdown, win/loss ratio, average trade and other statistics. We include brokerage, taxes and slippage assumptions so results are more realistic, and support parameter testing to compare variations.
Backtest results are based on historical data and assumptions. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Paper Trading
Paper trading runs the strategy on live market data without placing real orders. It is the safest way to check signal timing, order logic, risk rules and system stability in real market conditions before you commit capital. You can switch a strategy from paper to live mode with a controlled, logged approval step.
Broker API Integration
Our algo trading API integration connects your software to brokers for live data and order execution. We have experience with broker APIs such as Zerodha Kite Connect, Upstox, Angel One SmartAPI, Fyers and Dhan in India, and Alpaca and Interactive Brokers for US and global markets. We handle authentication, token refresh, rate limits, order and position sync, and error handling, so your strategies keep running smoothly during market hours.
Where brokers or exchanges have specific rules for algo trading, such as SEBI's framework for retail algo trading in India, we design the software to work within the broker's approved API and registration process. Your broker's requirements always apply.
Order Management
The order management layer turns signals into correctly formatted orders and tracks them through their full life cycle.
- Market, limit, stop-loss, stop-limit, bracket and cover orders, as supported by the broker
- Order slicing for large quantities and freeze-limit handling
- Automatic modify, cancel and re-entry rules
- Partial fill and rejection handling with clear status updates
- Position and order reconciliation with the broker to avoid duplicates or missed exits
Risk Controls
Risk controls are the most important part of any automated trading software. Every order passes through pre-trade checks before it reaches the broker.
- Maximum quantity and order value per trade
- Maximum open positions and exposure per strategy, instrument and account
- Daily loss limits and profit lock rules that pause trading automatically
- Maximum number of orders per minute to prevent runaway loops
- Price band checks against the last traded price
- Kill switch to stop all strategies and square off positions instantly
- Auto square-off at a set time before market close
Risk settings are configurable by you, and every risk event is logged and alerted.
Multi-Broker Architecture
Our algorithmic trading platform development uses a broker-agnostic design. A common adapter layer lets the same strategy run on different brokers, or on several client accounts across brokers at once. This makes it easy to add a new broker, switch providers, or offer your algo platform to users of multiple brokers. For brokers who want algo tools inside their own systems, we also integrate directly with existing brokerage software.
Monitoring and Control
See what every strategy is doing, get alerted when it matters and stay in control at all times.
Trading Dashboard
A clear dashboard keeps you in control of every strategy. Built as a secure web trading terminal, it shows:
- Running, paused and stopped strategies with one-click start, pause and stop
- Live positions, open orders and real-time P&L per strategy and account
- Broker connection and data-feed health
- Risk limit usage, such as loss used versus daily limit
- Strategy parameter settings and paper/live mode status
Logs
Every event is recorded with a timestamp: signals, orders sent, broker responses, fills, rejections, risk checks, errors, logins and setting changes. Detailed logs make it easy to understand exactly why the system took an action, debug issues and keep an audit trail.
Alerts
Real-time alerts via Telegram, email, SMS or push notification keep you informed when it matters:
- Orders placed, filled or rejected
- Risk limits reached or kill switch triggered
- Broker disconnection, data-feed delay or token expiry
- Strategy errors or unusual behaviour
- Daily summary at market close
Performance Analytics
Performance analytics help you review how each strategy behaves in live and paper trading. Reports include trade history, P&L by day and strategy, drawdown, win/loss ratio, average holding time, slippage versus expected price and execution latency. Comparing live results with backtests helps you spot gaps between expected and actual behaviour.
Security
- Encrypted storage of API keys and broker credentials using secure key management
- Two-factor authentication and role-based access to the dashboard
- IP whitelisting and secure, private cloud or on-premise deployment
- Encrypted connections (TLS) for all data and broker communication
- Full audit logs of user actions and setting changes
- Code reviews and security testing before go-live
- NDA and IP protection for your strategy logic
