My Story

From Market Watcher to AI Builder

My name is Viplav Anand, and I've been obsessed with the stock market since 2016. What started as a personal journey to understand price movements and predict momentum has grown into something I never imagined — a full-fledged AI-powered stock intelligence platform used by traders and investors across India.

With 18+ years in the software industry, building enterprise-grade systems across global tech companies, I've always seen patterns where others see noise. The markets were no different. I started tracking technical signals manually — RSI divergences, moving average crossovers, volume spikes — and kept meticulous notes on what worked and what didn't.

By 2020, I realized the manual approach couldn't scale. I had spreadsheets tracking hundreds of stocks, pattern recognition ideas scribbled across notebooks, and a growing conviction that AI and machine learning could do what no human could — analyze 500+ stocks simultaneously, detect momentum shifts in real-time, and remove emotional bias from investment decisions.

That conviction became DalalAI.

The Journey

A Decade of Markets & Code

2016 — The Beginning

Started actively investing and tracking Indian equities. Fascinated by momentum patterns, price action, and the rhythms of Nifty 50 and mid-cap stocks. Began building personal spreadsheets to track signals.
2017–2019 — Pattern Recognition
Manual Signal Tracking at Scale
Developed personal frameworks for RSI, moving average crossovers, and volume-based signals. Tracked sector rotations manually. Built conviction that momentum prediction was possible with the right data.
2020 — The AI Pivot
From Spreadsheets to Algorithms
COVID market volatility proved that manual tracking couldn't keep up. Started building automated data pipelines and ML models. The kernel of DalalAI was born — a system that could analyze hundreds of stocks in minutes.
2021–2023 — Building the Engine
DVM Score & Prediction Framework
Developed the proprietary DVM (Durability-Valuation-Momentum) scoring model. Built backtesting engines, technical analysis pipelines, and the first version of the AI prediction system. Refined algorithms through thousands of market cycles.

What Drives Me

My Investment Philosophy

Momentum is King

I believe in riding momentum. Markets are a reflection of collective psychology — and momentum tells you where the crowd is heading before the news does.

Data Over Emotion

The biggest enemy of any investor is emotion. DalalAI exists to replace gut feelings with data-driven signals. Every recommendation is backed by quantitative analysis.

Risk First, Returns Second

Before asking "how much can I make?", I always ask "how much can I lose?". Position sizing, stop-losses, and portfolio health are non-negotiable pillars.

Continuous Learning

Markets evolve, and so must we. I constantly refine DalalAI's models, backtest new strategies, and study emerging patterns. The learning never stops.

The Vision

Why I Built DalalAI

The Indian stock market has incredible potential, yet most retail investors lack access to the tools that institutions use. Professional-grade technical analysis, AI-driven screening, and real-time momentum detection were restricted to firms with deep pockets and dedicated quant teams.

I built DalalAI to democratize stock intelligence. Whether you're a seasoned trader managing a multi-crore portfolio or a first-time investor starting with SIPs, you deserve AI-quality analysis that's transparent, verified, and actionable.

Every feature in DalalAI — from the DVM scoring system to the AI Copilot, from the Market Heat Map to verified Predictions — was born from a real problem I faced as an investor. I built the tool I wished existed.
