Building a Production-Grade AI Trading Bot for Indian Markets (NIFTY 50, BANK NIFTY, Crypto)
A production-grade trading system needs more than signals. It needs streaming data, broker-safe execution, risk boundaries, auditability, and a clean path from paper trading to live capital.
Architecture
System Overview
Prabhat's trading bot architecture is built around a FastAPI backend, WebSocket-powered dashboard, Claude AI analysis layer, broker connectors, and a risk management service that guards every order before it reaches the market.
The system supports NIFTY 50, BANK NIFTY, SENSEX, Gold, Silver, Crude Oil, and Crypto instruments, with separate adapters for Zerodha Kite Connect and Binance.

The WebSocket dashboard streams positions, order state, live PnL, drawdown, model confidence, and risk flags without forcing traders to refresh.
Claude AI can summarize market context, detect regime shifts, explain why a setup is risky, and generate a plain-English trade journal after execution.

Paper Trading to Live Trading Flow
The execution layer treats paper trading and live trading as two modes behind the same order interface. A strategy can be tested with simulated fills, then promoted to live execution only after risk rules, sizing, and daily loss limits are proven.
