What Is Algo Trading?
Algorithmic trading is a method of trading where a computer program follows predefined rules to generate or execute trading orders.
For example, a trader could develop rules such as:
Enter a trade when a particular technical condition occurs.
Place a stop-loss order after entering a position.
Exit when a predefined target or condition is reached.
Monitor market data automatically.
The objective is to automate parts of the trading process according to predefined instructions.
Motilal Oswal describes algo trading as the use of computer programs to execute conditional orders based on predefined parameters.
