Tradetron is a cloud algo platform: you build a strategy in its wizard, deploy it, and its engine takes the trades on your broker when the conditions fire. Sarathi is an execution bridge: your strategy stays in TradingView, each alert becomes an order card in Telegram and on the web, and an order is placed only when you tap Confirm. The two products answer the same question, "how does my signal become an order", with opposite answers about who pulls the trigger. Everything about Tradetron below is taken from its own pages on 30 August 2026, linked inline. Where a fact could not be verified, it is left out rather than guessed. ## Side by side | | Tradetron | Sarathi | | --- | --- | --- | | Execution model | Automatic. The engine checks conditions on every tick and "once any conditions (Entry / Repair / Exit) are satisfied, the trades are taken" ([features](https://tradetron.tech/pages/features)). | Confirm tap. Nothing is placed until you tap Confirm (½, 1×, 2×) or Skip. Unanswered cards expire after 15 minutes and can never execute. No autonomous mode exists. | | Strategy authoring | No-code Strategy Building Wizard; strategies can be published to a marketplace on Creator plans ([features](https://tradetron.tech/pages/features), [pricing help](https://help.tradetron.tech/en/article/tradetron-pricing-plans-upgrade-refund-policy-7oisc0/)). | Pine Script v6 in your own TradingView. The Studio drafts and versions Pine v6 with non-repainting rules and ₹350-per-order costs built in; 13 house strategies to start from. No marketplace. | | Signal source | Tradetron's own engine on streamed tick data ([features](https://tradetron.tech/pages/features)). | TradingView alerts posted to a per-user webhook. | | Markets | Separate plans per exchange set: NSE/NFO/BFO, MCX, and several crypto exchanges ([pricing help](https://help.tradetron.tech/en/article/tradetron-pricing-plans-upgrade-refund-policy-7oisc0/)). | NSE and BSE index and stock F&O plus MCX gold and silver minis, gated by a tradable universe. No crypto. | | Live brokers | Broker integrations listed on [tradetron.tech/brokers](https://tradetron.tech/brokers). | (planned) None live. Dhan first, then Zerodha. Credentials can be saved today; orders are not sent. | | Paper trading | Available on the free plan; a paper deployment uses a deployment slot ([pricing help](https://help.tradetron.tech/en/article/tradetron-pricing-plans-upgrade-refund-policy-7oisc0/)). | Default route for every account. Fills at the card price plus 2 points of slippage. Never metered. | | Journal | Not verified on Tradetron's public pages; left out. | Every signal, decision (with surface and time), fill, slippage and expiry, in IST. | | Decision surface | Trade notifications by email, SMS and phone call on paid plans; WhatsApp no longer supported ([pricing help](https://help.tradetron.tech/en/article/tradetron-pricing-plans-upgrade-refund-policy-7oisc0/)). | Telegram order card with inline Confirm and Skip, plus the web dashboard. | | Custody | Your broker account. | Your broker account. Sarathi never holds funds or securities. | ## Pricing Checked 30 August 2026. Tradetron's India NSE/NFO/BFO monthly tiers, from its [pricing help page](https://help.tradetron.tech/en/article/tradetron-pricing-plans-upgrade-refund-policy-7oisc0/): | Tradetron tier | Monthly | What the page says it unlocks | | --- | --- | --- | | Free | ₹0 | Up to 10 private strategies, 1 algo deployment, 1 stockbag, paper trading. No live auto executions, no trade notifications. | | Starter | ₹300 | Live auto executions and notifications; 1 algo deployment, 1 stockbag. | | Retail | ₹1,200 | 5 algo deployments, 2 stockbags. | | Retail+ | ₹2,500 | 12 algo deployments, 4 stockbags. | | Creator | ₹5,000 | 25 algo deployments, 8 stockbags, up to 5 marketplace listings. | | Creator+ | ₹9,000 | 50 algo deployments, 16 stockbags, up to 10 marketplace listings. | Each exchange set is a separate plan; NSE and MCX are bought independently. Quarterly billing is listed at 7% off and yearly at 17% off. The current figures are on [tradetron.tech/pages/pricing](https://tradetron.tech/pages/pricing). Sarathi has no subscription. You buy prepaid credits that never expire: Starter $10 for 1,000, Pro $50 for 5,000, Whale $100 for 10,000. Order-card delivery is free up to a monthly allowance (30 on Free, 150 Starter, 500 Pro, 1,500 Whale), then 2 credits per card. Confirm and Skip taps, expiries, fills, the journal and the paper route are never charged. Starter unlocks one live broker once an adapter ships; Whale unlocks a second. Full detail on the [pricing page](/pricing). The comparison that matters is not the rupee figure. Tradetron's price buys deployment slots for an engine that trades for you. Sarathi's price buys card deliveries and Studio usage for a bridge that waits for you. ## Choose Tradetron if - You want the trade placed the moment conditions are met, without a human in the path. - You prefer building strategies in a visual wizard to writing Pine Script. - You want to subscribe to, or sell, strategies on a marketplace. - You trade crypto on Indian exchanges alongside NSE or MCX and want one platform with plans for each. - You run many strategies at once and want deployment slots rather than per-card costs. ## Choose Sarathi if - Your strategies already live in TradingView and you want to keep them there. - You want speed without autonomy: the alert arrives as a card in seconds, but the order is yours to place, size, or skip. - You want the record. Every signal, decision and fill is journaled with who decided, when, and from which surface, and an expired card never executes. - You want to paper trade the full path, including your own reaction time, before any live broker is involved, and pay nothing for it. - You are fine starting on paper today and moving to Dhan or Zerodha when the adapter ships, rather than needing a live broker this week. Sarathi has no live broker adapter as of 30 August 2026. If you need live execution today, Tradetron or another auto-execution platform is the working option; Sarathi is the paper-first option with live routing planned. ## What this page does not claim Tradetron's public pages describe its engine, wizard, plans and notification channels. They were not checked for order-level journaling, slippage reporting, TradingView webhook ingestion, or the exact current Indian broker list, so those cells are marked unverified or left out. Nothing here is a statement about Tradetron's regulatory status or Sarathi's. Both products sit inside a framework where the broker is principal; read [SEBI's circular](https://www.sebi.gov.in/legal/circulars/feb-2025/safer-participation-of-retail-investors-in-algorithmic-trading_91614.html) and ask your broker. ## Get started Sign up, link [Telegram](/connectors/telegram), paste your webhook into a TradingView alert, and your first card fills on the [paper route](/brokers/paper). Live brokers follow when the adapter ships. Tradetron is a trademark of its owner. Sarathi is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with Tradetron. Prices and features quoted were checked on 30 August 2026 against the linked pages; if something is out of date, write in and it will be corrected.
