Cheers for the tutorial link Nicolas,
I thought the demo used to be for 100 days – it’s now only 20 days max? Does that mean I have to keep extending every 20 days i.e. on the 19th day? (Two strategies both stopped last week after 16th June launch).
From Chapter 6 of your tutorial link:
- Position and order status after stop of systems:</b> when a system is stopped, choose if you want ProOrder to close the positions and cancel the pending orders; or keep them to manage them manually.
I have it set it to manually, this is why although both the systems have been stopped due to the 20 day time limit they are still “live” in the IG web platform.
If I re-start my systems will the re-launched strategies then be able to close the existing trades that were taken by the systems before they were stopped by PRT?
- Stop due to expiration date:</b> for security reasons, all systems have a common validity date, beyond which they will be stopped. To extend the validity date, click “Extend” in the ProOrder window.? The “Limit of validity” parameter lets you define the number of days of each extension.
Why is it designed to only run for 20 days and so short on the demo? What security issues could there be?
Also, lastly I do no see how to extend the systems for another 20 days when I have them running on PRT. Once the strategies are running (I re-launched them both yesterday) there is only the “view performance” and “view code” in the Pro Order Automated Trading Window?
Thanks again,
Bard
