Friends, a new month has begun with TRT (The Retail Trader). We did a lot of work in the past few months, and in August 2026 those updates have finally gone live. Today we will talk about what has been launched, how to use it, and what is planned next.
This update is purely educational — no stock recommendation, just information on platform progress.
The biggest moment of joy — our charting terminal is now officially live under the name SUPERCHART.
What Will You Get in SUPERCHART?:
• Real-time charts: Advanced charting tools with real-time data for Nifty, Bank Nifty, and individual stocks
• Multiple timeframes: From 1-minute to monthly — choose according to your strategy
• Drawing tools: Trendlines, Fibonacci retracement, channels — everything is built in
• Indicators: RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, Moving Averages and many more technical indicators
The main goal of Superchart was that every retail trader should be able to get professional-level charting tools without an expensive subscription. Now this has become possible.
How to Use It? Go to the platform, go to the Charting section, and select your preferred symbol. If you don't know technical analysis, read our terminology guides — those are now available too.
The biggest challenge for traders is understanding the language of the market. Support, resistance, volume, RSI, drawdown — new traders get scared as soon as they hear these terms.
That is why we have published 15 terminology categories that cover the entire market vocabulary:
Keep these points in mind:
• Technical Analysis Basics — Chart patterns, candlestick formations
• Indicators Explained — RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands meanings
• Options Terminology — Call/Put, Greeks, premium, strike price
• Futures Fundamentals — Lot size, margin, expiry concepts
• Market Psychology — Fear, greed, FOMO explained simply
• Risk Management — Position sizing, stop-loss, risk-reward ratio
• Fundamental Terms — P/E ratio, EPS, book value, debt-equity
• Sector Analysis — How sectors rotate and what drives them
• IPO Vocabulary — Greenshoe, anchor investor, book building
• Derivatives Basics — Hedging, speculation, spread strategies
• Volume & Price Action — Volume analysis, price discovery mechanisms
• Candlestick Patterns — Doji, hammer, engulfing patterns explained
• Order Types — Market order, limit order, stop-loss order types
• Market Microstructure — Bid-ask spread, liquidity, slippage concepts
• Macro Terms — GDP, inflation, interest rates impact on markets
All these categories are available for free access on the platform. Whenever you want to understand a term, search for it — you will get a detailed explanation.
A screener is a tool that filters, out of millions of stocks, the ones that match your criteria. TRT's screener is now live and works in two major categories:
Technical Screener:
• Price above/below moving averages
• RSI oversold/overbought levels
• Volume spike detection
• Pattern screening (head & shoulders, double bottom, etc.)
Fundamental Screener:
• P/E ratio filters
• Debt-to-equity ratio screening
• Revenue growth checks
• Profit margin analysis
By combining both you can build an advanced screen — for example, "stocks with RSI below 30 and P/E below 20." This filter strategy is useful for both traders and investors.
Every trader should know what is coming up. TRT's Market Calendar now brings everything together in one place:
Keep these four points in mind:
• IPO Schedule: Dates and details of new IPOs
• Earnings Calendar: Company results dates — which company is declaring quarterly results when
• Economic Events: RBI decisions, GDP data, inflation numbers, employment reports
• Options Expiry: Weekly and monthly expiry dates
By subscribing to the calendar you can also set notifications, so that you don't miss any important event.
The aim of TRT's pricing model was that everyone gets access — but running a platform needs resources. That is why we have kept three tiers:
Basic (Free):
• SUPERCHART charting terminal access
• Read 5 terminology categories
• Basic screener with limited filters
• Market calendar access
• Join community discussions
Who it is for: Perfect for beginners and casual readers.
Pro — ₹2,499/month:
• Full version of Superchart with all indicators
• All 15 terminology categories + advanced guides
• Advanced screener with custom filters
• Priority support
• Email newsletter access
Who it is for: Regular traders who watch the market daily and want serious analysis.
Max — ₹4,999/month:
• Everything in Pro, with the highest limits — see theretailtrader.org/pricing for the current list
Who it is for: Serious investors and professional-level traders who want every tool.
Our belief is that you should start free, and upgrade when you get value. That is why the Basic tier has been kept very feature-rich.
A little peek at what is being worked on right now:
In the coming months our Research Hub is going to launch, where detailed sector reports, stock deep-dives, and market outlooks will be published. It will be only for Premium users in the beginning, but later Pro users will get access too.
We want to use AI for real-time market sentiment analysis, news impact scoring, and pattern detection. AI Intel is currently in the development stage — a beta will launch soon.
August 2026 was a milestone month for TRT. From SUPERCHART to the screener, the goal of every feature was that retail traders should get professional tools without heavy cost.
If you haven't joined yet, the basic tier is free — go and take a look. If you want pro features, subscribe to Pro or Premium. For any feedback, comment on the platform or contact us.
Next month we are going to bring even more exciting updates. Stay tuned!
