How do I test strategy on live data

[verge]

I have written a strategy and have tested it using historical data.

What needs to change in the code so that it can be tested on live data?

Why do you think something needed to be changed in your strategy before you run it live?

Hi

Thank for the quick response

No. I dont think anything has to change. Its just that I dont know how to attach a strategy that I have developed to a feed. I dont have a real live feed yet. But would like to test it with the simulated feed

You can run your strategy live (including sim feed) on chart or on the strategies tab on the control center. There is a wealth of info available on that matter in the help guide (just press F1 in NT).

Thanks again

I managed to get it going I think - no trades yet.

I made a mistake by not changing the SIM feed start price. So it started at one - while the last price in my historical data was at 207. I then changed the SIM feed start price to 207. But now when I look at the chart it goes from 207 to 1 and then back to 207. Is there a way that I can delete the wrong piece i.e. start again?
