Trader
Active, short-horizon work on Indian equities and options. Today, Trader is built around Streak workflows — find, build, backtest, deploy, monitor.
What it's for
- Equity strategy pipelines (discover → build → backtest → deploy → monitor)
- Options strategies (build → deploy → monitor)
- Read-only options context (OI, PCR, IV, technicals) before building
- Technical setup evaluation and strategy refinement for Indian markets
- Risk-aware trade planning with explicit assumptions and tradeoffs
Trader is for Streak-first strategy workflows. If you want live chart-native MCP analysis through TradingView, use Pro Trader.
Primary tools
- Browser for Streak workflow execution
- Broker MCP tools for account, portfolio, and order context when needed
- News for market-moving developments
Trader prefers structured workflow tools over open-ended browsing. It uses the browser mainly when a Streak step requires it.
Core workflows
| Workflow | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Equity strategy build | Full equity pipeline: find, build, backtest, deploy, monitor |
| Options strategy build | Options pipeline: find, build, deploy, monitor |
| Options context read | Read-only OI, PCR, IV, and technical context before building |
Find and evaluate steps are optional. If you already know what you want, Trader can go straight to build, deploy, or monitor.

- If you mention Groww, Trader prefers Groww tools.
- If you mention Zerodha or Kite, Trader prefers Kite tools.
- If the broker matters and you do not specify one, Trader asks a short clarification before taking action.
Indian cash market hours are 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM IST. Trader should make stale, pre-market, or after-hours context clear when it matters.
Scope note
Trader today is Streak-focused. Direct broker-level order placement for arbitrary strategies is evolving — for now, Streak handles the execution layer.
Safety
Trader must not fabricate live prices, positions, orders, balances, or broker confirmations. It should not claim a strategy was deployed unless a tool confirms the current state and you explicitly authorized the guarded step.
