Running Many Strategies on NT7 ?

[vassil]

I intend to run about 50 live strategies on 5 min chart, “Calculate on bar close”, on a few different underlyings on PFG “block accounts”. Often there are simultaneous execution on 5-10 of the strategies and/or accounts.

Does someone have experience in similar situations? Should I expect stable behaviour of NT7 in that case?

Are there particular recommendations about the hardware in terms of CPU speed and RAM that will suffice the load?


Thanks!

Hi Vassil,

Unfortunately we do not have guidelines available for the number of strategies you can expect to run. It's variable based on the complexity of the strategy and volume for the instruments you're trading, as well as your machines capability.

You're going to want the most ram you can get and fastest processor for 50 strategies running simultaneously. Can review the link below for additional performance tips:
