The first time I thought of trying Algorithmic Trading in Indian markets, I felt how difficult and expensive can that be for an individual. Think of some strategies, code them, test them on back data and go live with some Algorithmic Trading framework compatible with any broker. If your first thought to this simplistic view is amusing, I am with you now.
Well, my problem was that I had always worked on applications targeting American/European markets, where there is many vendors for any of these steps. Contrary to that, when I tried to find them for Indian markets, they are very few and the ones that are available are very expensive.
Talking to a number of data providers, trading platforms and brokers, I could not find a single product which was capable of handling all my needs.
So finally I have decided to build pieces of software and advance step by step.
I will keep it updated by the advancements and upload all the free stuff I come up with.
The first would be a data recorder.
