ABOUT US

Quant Robots LLC is a young venture focused on development of Algorithmic/Automated trading systems in capital markets. We are into design and development of quantitative models, high frequency trading systems, and backtesting applications and implementing these models in capital markets.

We develop customized strategies

based on technical indicators & mathematical statistical models

SERVICES

We are a young venture with focus on Algorithmic/Automated trading. We are passionate about creating trading solutions that are fast, flexible and reliable. We provide services in the following areas:

Set of rules, instructions, coded into a computer to predict movement in financial market. Also referred as systematic trading, robotic trading. An automated / algorithmic trading systems monitor trends based on technical indicators, fundamental information, statistics based on live streaming of market data feed. Algorithmic trading systems are used by hedge funds, prop trading firms, retail and institutional traders and funds.

Key behind algorithmic trading is elimination of human errors and emotions as these systems run using computers without any human emotions. Design of algorithmic trading systems is very robust and can make decisions at Nano-seconds level. Algorithmic systems are capable to incorporate any custom complex rules.

At Quant Robots, we offer cost effective quantitative development services in algorithmic trading domain. Our team is highly proficient in developing and designing advanced trading systems. We work hard to develop systems according to our client’s custom requirements.

Also known as HFT is a trading platform that uses powerful computers to transact a large number of orders at very fast speeds. Use of complex algorithms, best execution, avoiding slippages is a key for successful HFT systems. An HFT strategy keeps positions for few seconds over milliseconds. High-frequency trading firms do not employ significant leverage, do not accumulate positions, and typically liquidate their entire portfolios on a daily basis. Algorithms for HFT rely heavily on the processing speed, data feed quality, very low latency systems, access to market, minimal transaction cost, best execution, smart order routing capabilities and robustness of the system.

Our team can provide consultancy in developing multiple types of HFT systems. (Market making, Event / Statistical arbitrage, Low latency strategies, Scalping)

Strategy backtesing is an essential tool to see if your strategy works or not. Backtesting simulates your strategy on historical data. Instead of applying a strategy for the time period forward, which could take years, a trader can do a simulation of his or her trading strategy on relevant past data in order to gauge its effectiveness and provide a backtesting report, which allows you to conduct proper trading system analysis. Backtesting gives an idea how a strategy would have performed if it had actually been applied in the past.

We have a dedicated research team working in R and Matlab who can provide consultancy services for backtesting and optimization on a strategy. We can also develop dedicated custom applications to consider custom indicator, parameters for backtesting. Parameter optimization, dynamic portfolio creation are important features for backtesting. By running the optimization over a wide variety of parameters, we can find some scenarios with improved results and then exhaust the backtesting runs on those specific scenarios to find the best combinations.

We can assist you to prototype on model/strategy

We can backtest a strategy over huge historical data. We can create custom applications to backtest high frequency of historical data including tick by tick data

Creating reports with risk analysis: mean returns, volatility, alpha, beta, maximum draw down, Sharpe ratio and more

More and more institutional traders are getting more excited with Automated trading embracing robotic, systematic trading. If you are looking for quantitative development services in the computational finance domain then we can provide you reliable solutions.

We have expertise, experience in the field and have an efficient team of quantitative developers who are capable of designing and developing trading systems utilizing advanced mathematical models.

You can entrust your trading related development work with us whether you need trading solution for equities, Forex, or commodities markets. We have experience with various automated trading platforms and handling extensive quantitative development projects.

Our strategy development process is streamlined and we consider detail requirements for historical data, frequency of historical data, custom parameters, backtesting application, instruments to consider for portfolio, forward testing and optimization consideration.
