I’m a self-taught dev & trader. Over the past 6 years, I went from learning to code → freelancing in the algo space → working as a quant dev → finally building my own product. It’s BuildAlgos.com, the easiest way to build, backtest & deploy custom trading strategies, even fairly complex ones. Here’s a 1:30 min video showing how it works!

@yashhq_22 I feel you,

Nobody talks about the part where you’re the CEO, developer, designer, marketer, and support team. all at once. with no salary.

@YashikaChugh4 I don't think that 3d printer works

i think the best part about being in office has been the gadgets > colorful keyboard > mini gaming laptop from an alley in SG > 3D printer in motion

Lol mythos got hacked😂

@Nick_khandelwal Zostel / Hosteller / Gostops

Does anyone know a good hostel or homestay around Dehradhun or a 100 kms here and there. Since the new highway is up, i am thinking I will give it a try.

@ayushunleashed T-shirt is tooo good, link to buy?

Yc startup school summarised for those who didn't attend: Kinda disasterous but it worked out in the end. 1. They didn't open gate at 12:30, the time they mentioned in the event email. 2. There were not enough chairs for 2000 something people. 3. The audio was not loud enough for people sitting at the back, so most people chose to completely ignore what was being said in the talks. 4. Best way to utilise the event was networking. 5. Crowd was great, but in a pool of 2000 something people it's hard to know whom to talk to. Alot of college and even high school students attended. People from different countries, I met an engineer from Aston Martin F1 team. 6. Met many mutuals from X and people I knew already. Best part for me. 7. Atleast 15+ people took photo with me because of my t-shirt. ( That was kinda funny ) 8. Some dude just sprayed pesticides while people were talking around in that area. 9. Dinner was good and we got merch.

Back at it...

Crazyyy, Python on Steroids 🔥🔥

@ThoughtnThin @AbhishekRaskar @ians_india Why bihar bro?

@niraj_munot @AbhishekRaskar @ians_india Go back to Bihar

Mumbai, Maharashtra: On Comedian Kunal Kamra appeared before the Vidhan Bhavan Privileges Committee over remarks against Deputy CM Eknath Shinde, BJP MLC Prasad Lad says, "Today was Kunal Kamra's 3rd or 4th hearing. Today we had to record his testimony. In this matter, Pravin Darekar had filed a complaint against him. Today was the time to cross-question him. Kunal Kamra and Pravin Darekar were cross-questioned. 24 questions were asked to Kunal Kamra. In which he tried to explain his mistakes. He tried to ask about the rights of the constitution. He tried to ask about the rights of the privilege committee..''

@AbhishekRaskar @ians_india Bro he's actually talking Marathi in Hindi accent. Most of the words used were in Marathi

@ians_india Marathit bolayala tras hoto ka???

@hdxswx Oh awesome

I cracked the code to finding ideal customers on Reddit. Building my free eSignature tool, I stumbled onto something nobody talks about. Instead of posting random content and hoping for the best, I found a way to surface the exact Reddit threads where people are already searching for what you sell. Not random traffic. Buyer intent. So I built a tool that does it for you. Drop in your product URL → it surfaces viral Reddit threads that already rank on Google, tied to real demand. The bonus nobody talks about: Reddit is now one of the top sources for AI-generated answers. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, they all pull from Reddit heavily. More Reddit visibility = better odds showing up in AI answers too. The tool is completely free. Like and reply "REDDIT" and I'll send it your way (please keep DMs open).

We just did a V1 launch, got a decent 60+ sign ups in 24 hours, just by DMing people and posting in 3-4 trading communities. Now back to building, in next few updates : - Improving LLM response, adding more context - Fixing backtest and analysis UI - Updating to latest data

Saw some broker built Algo Platforms recently, they're soo badly vibe coded..😂😭 they can do much better job with overall look and feel of the product. Please hire better frontend people or have a fucking hackathon to get it built.

@aravind You've an extremely fair point, but FM just openly said F&O is gambling so they wouldn't stop the markets but suck everything out of it untill it dies itself, by taxes to "Protect Retail Investors".

For investors in Indian markets: Short-term capital gains tax (stocks held <1 year) went from 15% to 20% two years ago. Long-term capital gains tax (held >1 year) went from 10% to 12.5% two years ago. And FIIs outflow since then: 2025: Record ₹1.66 lakh crore net - the highest annual FII outflow ever recorded in Indian markets. 2026: ₹1.51 lakh crore net just year to date. Just a 2% increase matters a lot if you are an FII investing billions. FIIs invest in India because of high growth opportunities, but a depreciating rupee and an increase in taxes means they may move out their capital. And FIIs definitely move their capital when they sense global issues may drag India's growth. We are already seeing this. This causes more stresses to India's economy, currency, and companies. Even if futures and options keep their increases in STT (for various reasons it can be argued to make sense), for capital gains from equities, this increase in tax definitely needs to be reconsidered by GoI. An idea I propose is the increases in taxes can be applied (some other way) only for FIIs, and only when they are taking out the capital from the country. Not sure how it can be implemented, or if it is even practical. If not, the increases in CGT must be reconsidered, and reverted for at least the time being, to incentivize FIIs and DIs in investing in India's growth story.

@aravind Who will pay for ladki bahin then?

Today marks the start of a new era of trading and investing.
