I trade the Indian markets and now want to automate my work. The focus is exclusively on Futures and Options and, more specifically, on non-directional strategies (think iron condors, short straddles/strangles, calendar spreads, etc.). All order routing and data will go through Zerodha’s Kite API, so solid, hands-on experience with that stack is a must. Here is what I need done: • Strategy logic codified in clean, well-commented Python (or Node/Java if you can justify it) • Historical back-tests with clear performance metrics—P&L curves, drawdowns, Sharpe, exposure by leg, slippage assumptions, the works • Live deployment scripts or a lightweight dashboard that can place, modify, and square-off orders automatically during market hours, including safety checks (max loss, margin use, circuit limits) • Slack/Telegram/e-mail alerts for fills, MTM breaches, or system errors • Basic documentation so I can tweak parameters without digging through every line of code I already have a Zerodha account and an AWS instance available for hosting, but I’m open to other cloud setups if you have a smoother workflow. Time-based entry and exit as well as adjustments around key data points (IV crush after events, weekly expiry dynamics) are desirable, yet I’m happy to discuss refinements once we’re into the project. If you have live examples, back-test reports, or GitHub snippets of similar work, please include them when you respond. I’m aiming for a robust, production-ready solution rather than a quick script, so clarity, stability, and risk controls will determine acceptance.
