An AlgoTest Alternative with Fixed Monthly Plans

AlgoTest is an options backtesting and execution platform that charges in credits for each backtest and each live strategy. Traders look for an alternative when credit costs grow with the number of strategies, or when they want signal trading and portfolio stop losses included in one price. This page sets out the differences, as of October 2026.

Choose QuantPower if

  • You want one fixed monthly price instead of credits
  • You want to start free and compare plans against your strategy count
  • You want TradingView alerts and one stop loss for all positions in the same plan

Stay with AlgoTest if

  • You run one or two strategies and backtest a lot
  • Free weekly backtests cover most of your testing
  • You use its option charts and simulator

Why traders look for an AlgoTest alternative

  • Costs that grow: each live strategy uses 100 credits per 28-day cycle, so ten strategies cost about ten times one.
  • Signals priced separately: TradingView signals need a separate plan of 1,299 credits for 30 days.
  • Backtest limits: after 25 free backtests a week, more backtests use credits.

When AlgoTest is still the better choice

If you run one or two strategies and backtest a lot, AlgoTest's credits and its free weekly backtests usually cost less than a monthly plan.

Switching in five steps

  1. Write down each strategy's instrument, legs, entry and exit rules and position size.
  2. Rebuild it in the strategy builder.
  3. Backtest it and compare the results with AlgoTest.
  4. Run it in paper trading for a few weeks.
  5. Stop the AlgoTest deployment before going live on QuantPower, so the same signal does not trade twice.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an AlgoTest alternative without credits?

Yes. The QuantPower Standard plan is free during the Beta (₹299/month after); Professional is ₹499/month and Ultimate ₹999/month, GST extra. See pricing.

Which costs less for ten strategies?

The Standard plan is free during the Beta; see pricing for each plan's daily allowances. On AlgoTest, ten live strategies use about 1,000 credits per cycle, before any signals or extra backtests.

Can I keep using AlgoTest for backtests?

Yes. Many traders backtest in one tool and run strategies in another. Just do not run the same strategy live on both.
