Coming soon to Google Play

Practice the mistakes. Trade the learning.

Your setups alerts you via Technical Signals and Live FNO.

NivCraft is a paper-trading and market-watchlist app for Indian markets and crypto. Build watchlists, place simulated trades with virtual money, and backtest ideas. Technical Signals and Live FNO continuously scan your selected setups and alert you when conditions match — using live prices from your connected broker.

Currently in closed testing on Google Play. Public release planned soon.

What you can do

Everything is simulated. NivCraft is a practice and research tool, not a brokerage.

Live F&O scan

Continuously watch futures and options for entry and exit conditions while the market is open.

Connect your broker

Connect your Indian brokerage account through its official OAuth flow for live NSE equity, F&O and option-chain data. Data is fetched with your own credentials and is never shared with other users. The connection is optional, and crypto markets work with no account at all.

How it works

  1. Sign in with Google — your account keeps your watchlists and history.
  2. Connect an Indian broker (optional) for live NSE prices — crypto works out of the box.
  3. Build a watchlist of the instruments you want to follow.
  4. Place simulated trades and track how your ideas perform over time.

FAQ

Is this real trading?

No. Every trade in NivCraft is simulated with virtual funds. NivCraft is not a broker, does not execute real orders, and nothing in the app is investment advice.

Can I trade from a chart?

You can place and manage simulated paper trades from a chart, including entries, stop losses, targets, adds, reductions and closes. These controls never send an order to a broker or exchange.

What do optional rewarded ads do for Free users?

When available, a Free user may choose to watch a rewarded ad in full for a small, time-limited in-app allowance. The reward is shown before you choose, is never cash, practice capital, a trading outcome or an investment benefit, and watching is never required to keep using NivCraft.

Do I need a broker account?

It's optional. Crypto markets work with no account at all. Connecting an Indian brokerage account (Upstox or FYERS) adds live NSE equity and F&O data to your watchlists and simulations.

How do I connect Upstox or FYERS?

Select Connect Provider and complete sign-in on the provider page. NivCraft completes the returned authorization-code exchange on your device with the API credentials from your own developer app. Keep your API key or App ID and API secret private; NivCraft never places a real order through this connection.

What is the Upstox one-year Analytics Token?

Create the token in Upstox Developer Apps > Analytics, then save it with your Upstox API Key and API Secret in NivCraft. It remains in secure storage on your device, is never sent to the NivCraft backend, and is checked when you connect. Replace it from the same screen if it expires or cannot be verified.

Is my data private?

Yes. Live Indian market data is retrieved using your own broker credentials on your device and is never shared with other users. Chart-trading analytics use only coarse action and reliability information, not trade values. See the Privacy Policy for details.

How do I delete my account and data?

In the app, go to Menu > Delete Account. If you cannot access the app, you can request deletion by email. See Account & Data Deletion for the full process and retention details.

What does it cost?

NivCraft is free with ads, with an optional premium tier that removes ads and raises usage limits.

When does it launch?

It's in closed testing now. General release on Google Play is planned soon — email us to be notified.
