QuantDinger
Next-Gen AI Quantitative Trading Platform
🤖 AI-Native · 🐍 Visual Python · 🌍 Multi-Market · 🔒 Privacy-First
Build, Backtest, and Trade with an AI Co-Pilot. Better than PineScript, Smarter than SaaS.
📖 Introduction
What is QuantDinger?
QuantDinger is a local-first, privacy-first, self-hosted quantitative trading infrastructure. It runs on your own machine/server, providing multi-user accounts backed by PostgreSQL while keeping full control of your strategies, trading data, and API keys.
Why Local-First?
Unlike SaaS platforms that lock your data and strategies in the cloud, QuantDinger runs locally. Your strategies, trading logs, API keys, and analysis results stay on your machine. No vendor lock-in, no data exfiltration.
Who is this for?
QuantDinger is built for traders, researchers, and engineers who:
- Value data sovereignty and privacy
- Want transparent, auditable trading infrastructure
- Prefer engineering over marketing
- Need a complete workflow: data, analysis, backtesting, and execution
Core Value
- 🔓 Apache 2.0 Open Source (Code): Permissive and commercial-friendly
- 🐍 Python-Native & Visual: Write indicators in Python with AI assistance, visualize on built-in K-line charts
- 🤖 AI-Loop Optimization: AI analyzes backtest results to suggest parameter tuning, forming a closed optimization loop
- 🌍 Universal Market Access: Crypto (Live), US Stocks (IBKR), Forex (MT5), Futures (Data/Notify)
- 💳 Built-in Monetization: Membership subscription, credit system, USDT on-chain payment

2. Complete Trading Lifecycle
From Indicator to Execution, Seamlessly.
- Indicator: Define your market entry/exit signals.

- Backtest & AI Optimization: Run backtests, view rich performance metrics, and let AI analyze the result to suggest improvements.
- Execution Mode:
- Live Trading:
- Cryptocurrency: Direct API execution for 10+ exchanges (Binance, OKX, Bitget, Bybit, etc.)
- US Stocks: Via Interactive Brokers (IBKR)
- Forex: Via MetaTrader 5 (MT5)

7. Memory-Augmented Agents (Local RAG + Reflection Loop)
QuantDinger's agents don't start from scratch every time. The backend includes a local memory store and an optional reflection/verification loop:
- What it is: RAG-style experience retrieval injected into agent prompts (NOT model fine-tuning).
- Where it lives: PostgreSQL database (shared with main data) or local files under
backend_api_python/data/memory/(privacy-first).
