Pair Trade Analyser

PTA app scans hundreds of pairs from NSE and gives the right pairs to traders

Pair Trading is a very popular market neutral strategy which takes out volatility from the market where one exploits the trading pattern between two similar shares in an attempt to generate a low-risk profit. Without taking a view of the overall direction of the market Trader buys an under priced security and simultaneously sells an overpriced security where he finds a pair of securities whose prices moves together or is highly correlated. This is most often seen in shares of companies from the same sector; for example, direct competitors such as SBIN and ICICIBANK.
