About
Us

We are IRAGE

iRageCapital was founded in 2009 with a view to be


the leader in algorithmic trading in India. Leveraging
its combined strengths in both quantitative finance
and technology, iRageCapital has emerged as one of
the pioneers in the field of high frequency trading in
India.
IRAGE

The IRAGE Way


We trade a basket of high frequency strategies everyday.

We trade a few hundred independent portfolios on a daily basis


and provide liquidity in a few thousand exchange traded financial
instruments in India on a continual basis throughout the day
(possibly the highest by any firm in India).
In simplified words, this means providing both buy and sell
quotes for thousands of products at all points of time.
We also manage overnight positions in a few thousand
derivatives on a daily basis.

This complex task has been made possible by the combination


of extremely smart quantitative traders and an equally smart
technology development team who have built a world-class
technology infrastructure in-house.

Recently, we also ventured into fund management with the


launch of iRage MasterTrust Absolute Return Fund (AIF
Category III)
