QuanterLab

What each plan carries

The whole platform is visible from every tier — locked things open and explain themselves. What a plan carries is depth: how much you can compute, how far you can validate, and whether a study can be published.

Free

Build real strategies and run them on real market history. No card.

Free

An account, an email address, nothing else

Build and backtest

  • The full Knowledge Base and Quantin, the in-platform research assistant

The Primitives canvas

  • Build your own circuits and run them on real history
  • Single ticker, conviction basket, or the NASDAQ 100
  • Six screens — volatility, liquidity, distance from the 200-day, ADX, 52-week high, and Top-N
  • Signal module and forward test; the Discretionary rule engine in full
  • The Library of published circuits, and the Garden that records what you registered

Not included

  • Paper trading, walk-forward, optimisation, regimes, and intraday data

Locked features still open and explain themselves. You can see the whole platform before you pay for any of it.

Research

Everything, and the instrument that publishes: sealed studies you can defend.

69 /mo

 

Everything in Practitioner, plus

Research studies

  • Pre-register a study and seal its terms before anything runs
  • Walk it window by window — one hypothesis, an evolving one, or two arms against each other
  • Compile the walk into a paper, with every window’s frozen report behind it
  • Publish to the research library, where the papers are free for anyone to read

The full instrument

  • Factor models — multi-factor screening, factor backtests, and the portfolio optimisers
  • Multi-strategy routers — several lanes, one book, allocated by regime
  • Primitives Paper Trade — take a circuit itself live
  • Portfolio Visualizer — three books, tracked live

Paper trading

  • 20 slots in each lane — Basic, Advanced and Stochastic

Common questions

What does the free tier actually do?

It builds. You get the Overlay and Builder for all four strategy families, the Universal Builder on daily bars, and the Primitives canvas with a working set of primitives — a ticker or a basket or the NASDAQ 100, six screens, a signal and a forward test, and the Discretionary engine in full. You can run those circuits on real market history, save your work, and register what you found. What free does not include is paper trading, walk-forward, optimisation and regimes.

Which plan should I pick?

Start free — it is a real tier, not a demo, and you will know within an afternoon whether this is your kind of tool. Practitioner is where most people work: walk-forward validation, regimes, stochastic methods, the fundamentals desk, and paper trading in every lane. Take Research when you want to run sealed studies and publish them, put a circuit live, or use the factor models and routers.

Can I move between plans?

Yes, in both directions. Your saved configurations, backtests, projects and registered hypotheses stay with your account either way — moving down pauses what a plan carries, it never deletes your work.

What markets are supported?

Equities and indexes. For the US indexes the membership is point-in-time and the fundamentals come with it — every date sees the constituents and the filings that were knowable then, which is what makes a backtest over them worth reading.

Can I export my strategies?

Yes — from Practitioner up. The Universal Strategy Builder exports standalone Python files you can audit and run independently. No black box.

Is there live brokerage integration?

No. QuanterLab is a research platform and does not connect to a broker or place orders. Paper trading marks your strategy forward against real market data, with no money involved.
