About the author

AlgoTradeGyan is written and maintained by Bulan Sarkar.

AlgoTradeGyan is written and maintained by Bulan Sarkar, who built this resource to fill a specific gap: rigorous, India-aware teaching on how to engineer a trading system — from data and backtesting to risk and execution — rather than another site chasing signals.

Editorial approach

Every explainer is drafted from first principles, checked against established quantitative-finance and software-engineering references, and grounded in realistic Indian-market examples. Where something is a rule of thumb, a model assumption or an exchange convention, it is labelled as such. Corrections are welcome — see Contact.
