# FinStocks AI

## Key Features

- **AI Strategy Builder**: Users describe strategies in plain English — no coding, formulas, or technical syntax required. The AI converts natural language into fully executable strategy logic. Example prompts: "Buy Nifty 100 stocks when Price > VWAP", "Execute Buy when RSI drops below 30", "Trade Reliance using a 5-minute breakout". VWAP = Volume Weighted Average Price; RSI = Relative Strength Index; Nifty 100 = India's top 100 large-cap stocks index.

- **Backtesting**: Run strategies against historical NSE/BSE data via plain English chat. Returns performance metrics, win rates, and P&L (profit & loss) breakdowns. Unique capability: FinStocks AI is the only platform that calculates actual brokerage costs within backtest results, giving users true net P&L after transaction costs rather than idealized gross returns.

- **Autopilot (Live Trading)**: Automated live trading via connected broker API. Monitors the market and executes orders per the defined strategy, 24/7, without manual intervention. Requires minimum ₹20,000 investment.

- **Paper Trading**: Simulate strategies with virtual money before going live. Uses the same chat interface, toggled to Mock mode. No real capital at risk.

- **AI Stock Screener**: Filter stocks using natural language — e.g. "Show me Nifty 100 stocks where RSI < 40 and Price > 50 EMA (Exponential Moving Average)".

- **Stock Research**: Fundamentals (P/E ratio, EPS, revenue, balance sheet), technical indicators (RSI, MACD, EMA, VWAP, ADX, Bollinger Bands), dividend history, IPO listings, and sector news.

- **Strategy Templates**: Pre-built, community-tested strategies with real backtest metrics, win rates, and live trade counts. Ready to deploy without any configuration.

- **Portfolio Management**: Import a broker portfolio to track holdings, P&L, fund allocation, and trade history. Shareable via read-only public link.

- **Professional Charting**: Embedded TradingView panel with live and historical Indian market data, in a split-screen workspace alongside the AI chat.

- **Prompt Book**: In-app guides for writing effective prompts across all workflows. Available in English and Hindi.
