The full platform.
Every component of the pizq algorithmic trading stack — built to work together, designed to get out of your way.
Start for free →Institutional-grade historical simulation
pizq runs backtests in isolated compute containers using a Python-based algorithmic trading engine. Every backtest runs in a clean environment with reproducible results.
Strategies are written in Python. The engine handles order simulation, portfolio accounting, slippage modelling, and performance attribution. You get the same backtesting rigour as a quantitative hedge fund, without managing the infrastructure.

Institutional data. Competitive prices.
pizq sources historical market data from Databento — the same institutional data infrastructure used by prop trading firms and quant funds. Data is purchased once and stored permanently in your account.
Every dataset purchased by any user enters the platform's shared catalogue. As the catalogue grows, the per-user cost of coverage decreases. The data business benefits everyone on the platform, not just the subscriber who originally purchased it.

- ✦Databento institutional-quality historical data
- ✦Daily, minute, and tick resolution
- ✦US equities, futures, FX, crypto — growing catalogue
- ✦Survivorship-bias-free
