Quickstart
Get your first backtest running in under 10 minutes.
Create your account
Go to quantinger.com/signup and create your account. You will be asked to accept the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and Risk Disclosure before proceeding. These are not optional — crypto trading carries real financial risk, and we require explicit acknowledgment.
Once signed up, you land on the dashboard. Your workspace is immediately ready. No waiting period for the trial.
Add your API key for AI (optional)
Quantinger uses a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model for AI features. If you want the AI Analyst, go to Settings → AI Keys and add your Anthropic, OpenAI, or Gemini key. If you skip this, everything except the AI Analyst works without any key.
Your key is encrypted with AES-256 (Fernet) before being stored. We never see it in plaintext after submission.
Build your first strategy
Navigate to Strategies → New Strategy. The strategy builder opens. You will see two panels: Conditions and Risk Settings.
In Conditions, click Add Rule. Choose an indicator (for example, RSI), set the comparison (below 30), and save. Then add a second rule for the exit condition (RSI above 70, or a fixed take-profit / stop-loss from the Risk Settings panel).
Give your strategy a name. Click Save.
Run your first backtest
Open the strategy and click Run Backtest. Choose a symbol (BTC/USDT or ETH/USDT are good starting points), a timeframe (1h is a reasonable balance of granularity and data volume), and a date range.
For your first run, use at least 1 year of data so the results are statistically meaningful. Click Start. Backtests typically finish in under 30 seconds for standard date ranges.
When complete, the Results Dashboard opens automatically. Read the Sharpe Ratio, max drawdown, and win rate first — those three numbers tell you most of what you need to know.
