Times are candle start times as on the Kite 1-minute chart. "Signal candle" is the 44 / 200 SMA crossover candle; it is confirmed when it closes, one minute later. Entry and exit show the price and the time it happened. Profit / loss = points × lot size × lots, before brokerage and taxes.

Option contracts Zerodha has today
Connect to Zerodha to load the option lists.
Zerodha only keeps data for contracts that are still trading. A day can be backtested only if the contract you would have traded that day is still in this list. Blue = monthly expiry (the last expiry of the month).

During a backtest the app picks the contract itself: first at 9:20 AM (from the close of the 9:15 spot candle), then every 15 minutes (9:35, 9:50 …). Strike = spot rounded to the nearest 100. On an expiry day the next contract is used. The picks for each tested day are listed under the results.
