The problem

You're paying to test strategies —
with your own money.

A YouTube thumbnail screams "95% winning intraday setup!" No trade log. No drawdown. No proof. So how does the average trader "test" it? They risk real capital and find out the hard way.

Why nobody backtests

Doing it properly is hard,
slow, and expensive.

Backtesting a strategy the right way isn't a five-minute job — it's why retail traders skip it entirely:

💸

Clean data costs money

Years of survivorship-bias-free price history across hundreds of stocks — and real NSE option premiums — run into thousands of rupees in data subscriptions.

👨‍💻

You need to code

Python, pandas, indicator libraries, and hours of debugging just to turn a video's rules into something a computer can test. Most traders can't and shouldn't have to.

🧾

Costs & slippage are brutal to model

Brokerage, STT, slippage, option spreads — leave them out and every backtest looks like a winner. Getting them right is fiddly and easy to fake.

🎯

Easy to fool yourself

Overfitting, regime luck, testing on today's index winners — a "great" backtest is often just hidden bias. Doing it honestly takes real discipline.

What FakeTrades does

Say it — or paste it. Get a real verdict.

We built the whole expensive pipeline once, so you don't have to. Describe your own strategy in a sentence, or drop in any YouTube video:

💡

1 · Your words or any video

Type your rules the way you'd tell a friend — Hindi, Hinglish or English — or paste a YouTube link and we pull the transcript. Either way, we decode the actual rules: indicators, entries, exits, targets, stops.

📊

2 · Backtest on real data

~300 Indian stocks across large, mid & small caps, ~10 years of daily history, 5-minute intraday data, NIFTY/BANKNIFTY, and real NSE option premiums — with true Zerodha costs baked in.

3 · Get an honest rating

A 0–5 star verdict plus a ₹2,00,000 portfolio simulation, year-by-year returns, and which stocks actually made the money.

It's honest about what it can't test

Directional option buying, calendar spreads, or vague "smart-money/ICT feel" with no mechanical trigger? It plainly says "Not backtestable" — instead of inventing a fake green table. We'd rather show you nothing than mislead you.

🧮

The rating can't be gamed

Stars come from real expectancy, win rate, drawdown and returns vs simply buying & holding — not the guru's claims. A "68% win rate" that hides one account-ending loss won't score 5 stars.

What you get

Stop guessing. Start knowing.

  • Save your capital. Kill bad strategies on a screen, not with your trading account.
  • Save months of time. Seconds to a verdict instead of a quarter of live trades.
  • Cut through the hype. Data beats a confident voice and a flashy thumbnail.
  • No skills needed. If you can copy a link, you can backtest it.
  • Learn what actually works. See which real, testable ideas hold an edge in Indian markets.
  • Trade with conviction. Or walk away — either way, you'll know why.
