Forward Testing Live

[elitetradernyc]

Hey guys, I've been backtesting now for a few months. Now I would like to start forward testing by generating signals live in real-time, but I dont want to have the signals generate trades I just want to see where the signals are generated (i can use a print statement). How do I do this live?

Thanks,

Hello EliteTraderNYC,

You may use the Sim101 account to be able to place order and test out your strategy in real-time. The Sim101 account is going to be locally stored on your PC and no actual orders will go to your broker but it will simulate a most brokerage accounts.

When you enable your strategy you can select what account that you would like to set it to under the Account Parameter section of the Strategy.
