Why ZTEN

Trade like a desk,
not like a hunch.

Buying a call or put

It's a bet.

NIFTY has to move the right way, far enough and soon, or the premium you paid melts away.

An iron condor

It's not a bet on direction.

It earns while NIFTY stays within a range, whether it drifts up or down, and its hedges cap the loss when it doesn't.

~~Intraday~~Positional

~~Single call or put~~Hedged four legs

~~Indicator hunch~~Written rules

Time decay works against the option buyer and for the iron condor.

That is how professional desks trade options. ZTEN brings the method to everyone: systematic, automated and free.

How an iron condor works →

SEBI's studies found that about nine in ten individual F&O traders made net losses. An iron condor has defined risk, but it is not risk-free: it tends to win small amounts often and can lose larger amounts. New accounts start on paper trading.

The strategy engine

01Research

ZSIM Lab

Replay options strategies against historical NIFTY data, bar by bar. Step through 5-minute candles and watch P&L, charges, peak profit and drawdown evolve, so you see how the rules would have behaved before any capital is at risk.

02Configure

DICS config

Every parameter is written down, explained and bounded: strike distances, wing width, VIX filters, minimum credit and capital allocation. Start from ZTEN’s values or change any of them to make the strategy yours.

03Execute & monitor

Command Center

DICS checks the market at 13:30, 13:45, 14:00 and 14:15 IST on trading days and acts only when the rules allow it. Command Center shows capital in use, open positions, payoff at expiry and realised P&L.

The ZTEN philosophy

Rules over
reactions.

Simple and
designed for you

You don't need to be a master trader. Screens guide you step by step and every rule is explained in plain words, so you learn it once and own it for good.

The desk method,
for everyone

Positional, hedged structures like the iron condor, traded the way professional desks trade them, without the overhead of staff or fees in ZTEN.

Backtesting,
free, always

Replay any strategy on NIFTY history, bar by bar, with charges included. Watch P&L, peak profit and drawdown unfold before any money is at risk.

Rules you
can repeat

Every parameter is written, bounded and yours to change. The engine picks the strikes, applies the rules the same way every day and records every trade.

Our benchmark

15%

annualised XIRR · internal KPI

This is the number we hold our own work to. Every study, every rule change and every month of trading is measured against it, and most ideas don't clear it. It is an internal benchmark, not a forecast or a promise of what you will earn. Results can be lower, and losses are possible.
