What is Algo Trading?
Algorithmic trading (algo trading) uses computer programs to automatically execute trades based on predefined rules and strategies. Instead of manually placing orders, your algorithm monitors market data in real-time, identifies opportunities, and executes trades at speeds impossible for humans. In India, algo trading now accounts for over 70% of NSE F&O trading volume.
