RWA tokens on Delta Exchange India are perpetual futures contracts that track the price of real-world assets, such as shares of US companies. They let you trade price moves in NVIDIA, Tesla, Apple or Amazon from your Delta Exchange account, without opening a US brokerage account.
AlgoTest now supports all 31 stock tokens listed on Delta Exchange India. You can backtest them, replay past sessions, paper trade and automate live execution from one place.
Here’s how RWA trading on Delta Exchange works and how to test a strategy before you go live.
What Are RWA Tokens on Delta Exchange India?
An RWA (Real-World Asset) token is a crypto token designed to track the price of an asset outside crypto, such as a company’s shares.
On Delta Exchange India, you trade these tokens as perpetual futures, quoted in USD. For example, the NVIDIA-linked perpetual (NVDAXUSD) moves with the price of NVIDIA stock.
A perpetual future is a futures contract with no expiry date. You can hold a position for as long as you like, with no rollover.
Trading an RWA perpetual is not the same as buying the stock. Keep these points in mind:
You can go long or short based on your market view.
You do not get ownership, dividends or voting rights in the company.
Leverage, funding payments and liquidation risk apply.
These contracts can trade outside regular US market hours.
Can You Trade US Stocks on Delta Exchange?
Yes. Delta Exchange India lists perpetual futures linked to major US stocks and ETFs, including NVIDIA, Tesla, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet and Meta.
You are trading the price movement, not buying shares. This makes RWA perpetuals a short-term trading tool, not a long-term investment.
If your goal is to own US shares for the long run, a broker that offers direct US stock investing is the better route. Compare your options in our guide to the best Indian brokers to invest in US stocks.

Which RWA Tokens Are Available on Delta Exchange?
AlgoTest supports 31 stock tokens from Delta Exchange India. You can search for them by symbol in any instrument selector, the same way you find BTCUSD or ETHUSD.
Symbols ending in XUSD are xStock tokens, and symbols ending in BUSD are bStocks tokens. Both work the same way on AlgoTest. Contract details for each symbol are on Delta Exchange’s contracts page.
Read the full setup notes in AlgoTest’s RWA Tokens documentation.
Note: RWA tokens have no options contracts on Delta Exchange India, so Perpetual Future is the only data type you can use. Options, Combined Premium and Synthetic Future are not available for RWA tokens. BTCUSD and ETHUSD still keep all their data types, including options.

How to Trade and Backtest RWA Tokens on AlgoTest
RWA tokens work just like BTCUSD and ETHUSD on AlgoTest. You pick them in the same instrument selectors, use the same Delta Exchange account and trade them in the same hours.
Here’s what you can do with them across AlgoTest’s tools.
1. Backtest RWA Strategies on Historical Data
Before you trade NVIDIA or Tesla perpetuals live, check how your rules would have performed in the past.
AlgoTest’s 920 strategies (Simple and Straddle) let you build, backtest, forward test and algo trade RWA tokens. To run a backtest:
Open AlgoTest Backtest.
Select Delta Exchange in the Backtest section.
Search for an RWA symbol, such as NVDAXUSD or TSLAXUSD.
Pick your strategy type: Intraday, BTST or Positional.
Add a Perpetual Futures leg and set your entry, exit, stop-loss and other conditions.
Run the backtest and review the results.
A backtest shows profit and loss, drawdowns, win and loss trades, and how the strategy behaves in different market conditions.
For example, instead of assuming that buying NVIDIA-linked futures at a set time is profitable, you can test that rule across all the historical data available for the contract.

2. Practise RWA Trading with the AlgoTest Simulator
A backtest checks fixed rules automatically. The Simulator lets you replay a past session and take trades yourself.
With the AlgoTest Simulator, you can:
Replay historical Delta Exchange RWA sessions.
Take simulated long and short positions.
Practise entries and exits without real capital.
See how price moves affect your simulated trade.
This helps you understand how an instrument behaves during volatile sessions or outside US market hours.
See how AlgoTest’s Simulator compares with other tools in our best options simulator in India guide. For RWA tokens, the Simulator uses perpetual futures rather than options.
3. Paper Trade RWA Strategies Before Going Live
A strategy that worked on past data can behave differently in today’s market.
AlgoTest’s paper trading (Forward Testing) runs your strategy on live market data using simulated orders. For RWA perpetuals, you can:
Run your strategy without placing real orders.
Watch simulated entries and exits.
Track virtual profit and loss.
Compare forward-test results with your backtest.
For instance, suppose your Tesla-linked strategy enters on a momentum signal and exits at a stop-loss or target. You can forward test those rules without putting capital at risk.

Paper trading won’t remove live execution risks, but it can catch problems in your strategy logic before you deploy it.
4. Build Indicator Strategies with Signals AI
AlgoTest Signals AI lets you set RWA trading rules based on indicators like EMA, RSI or SuperTrend.
You can build a strategy with the AI Agent or on the visual Canvas. You can then check it in Chart Preview and the logs, backtest it, forward test it and deploy it for algo trading.
For example, you could test an NVIDIA-linked strategy with these sample rules:
Buy when the 20-period EMA crosses above the 50-period EMA.
Exit when the crossover reverses or a stop-loss is hit.
Set a fixed position size and a maximum loss per trade.
These are sample rules for illustration, not a recommended strategy.
In Signals AI, options-only settings like strike selection don’t appear for RWA tokens, and the app shows why. You can also add RWA tokens to a Crypto watchlist, on their own or alongside BTCUSD and ETHUSD.
Learn how it works in our guide to creating trading signals with AI, or see how to build, backtest and automate trading signals.
5. Run TradingView Alerts with Signals Classic
Already have a strategy on TradingView? With Signals Classic, you can send TradingView webhook signals to AlgoTest and execute them on Delta Exchange RWA tokens.
This is useful if you build and test your logic on TradingView charts but want automatic order placement. See how this setup works in our guide to paper trading with TradingView using AlgoTest Signals.
6. Trade RWA Tokens Manually with ClickTrade
Not every trade needs to be automated. With ClickTrade, you can place and square off RWA trades manually and track your live P&L in one screen.
This works well when you want to act on a quick view, such as a big move in NVIDIA after earnings, without building a full strategy.
7. Automate RWA Trades Through Delta Exchange
Once a strategy has passed backtesting and paper trading, you can consider live algo execution.
RWA orders go through your existing Delta Exchange connection, so there’s nothing extra to set up:
You don’t need a daily broker login, the same as for BTCUSD and ETHUSD.
Execution settings, order types and deployment work exactly as they do for crypto.
There is no change to pricing or plans, so RWA tokens are available on the plan you already have.
If you’re new, connect your Delta Exchange India account to AlgoTest, save your RWA strategy, review position size and risk settings, and then deploy it.
Explore crypto and RWA algo trading on AlgoTest to see all the automation features.
Automation follows your rules exactly, but it cannot prevent market losses, slippage, API interruptions or liquidation.
Delta Exchange RWA Trading Hours, Fees and Leverage
RWA tokens follow the same session as other Delta Exchange instruments on AlgoTest. Trading runs 23 hours a day, seven days a week, with a daily break from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM IST.
This means you can trade US stock moves on weekends and outside regular US market hours.
Delta Exchange has cut maker and taker fees on US stock RWA tokens to 2 basis points. Funding payments and GST apply on top, so check the latest charges on Delta Exchange before you trade.
Delta Exchange lists up to 25x leverage on many US stock RWA perpetuals. Higher leverage increases both gains and losses, so set position size with care.
Risks of Trading RWA Tokens on Delta Exchange
Keep these risks in mind before you trade:
The RWA contract price can drift away from the real stock price, especially when US markets are closed.
Long or short positions may pay or receive funding, which changes your final returns.
Leveraged positions can lose money quickly and may be liquidated.
Wide bid-ask spreads and thin order books can lead to poor fills.
Fees, funding and slippage can eat into your returns.
These contracts are not regulated as securities under Indian law, so they don’t carry the same protections as NSE or BSE products.
For full details, read Delta Exchange’s RWA token derivatives disclaimer.
Build a Tested Strategy for Delta Exchange RWA Tokens
RWA perpetuals turn a US stock view into a strategy you can define and test. Set your context, entry, exit and position risk, then check how those rules hold up across past sessions and live market conditions.
AlgoTest helps you move from an idea to a strategy you can inspect and test before deciding whether to deploy it.
