What is Algo Live Testing?

Algo Live Testing allows you to quickly execute your Trading Strategy to a set of broker's demo account before you go live. The demo account will be able to process the whole trade life cycle, including data feed, order routing, market slippage, transaction cost and so on, as in production environment, so you can ensure your Algorithmic Strategy is working as expected.

We highly suggested you to go through the Live Testing before deploying to production. This allows you to discover logical bugs, improve quality, increase stability and optimize the performance before you push your Trading Strategy live.

What does Algo Live Testing include?

Algo Live Testing provides the integration with broker's Trial Account Service, which support real time execution on your broker trial accounts. Without code convertion, you can immediately deploy your strategy from Backtest to Live Testing.

Algo Live Testing also provides broker demo account management. Easily define the list of demo accounts you want to be able to test your Trading Strategy. You don't need to care about the broker's connection protocol of who you have connected to test your Strategy. ALGOGENE takes care of the complexity of ensuring that only the demo account you defined are the one that are executing the Strategy.

Algo Live Testing also support on-demand Strategy execution, which provides the feasibility to update/stop existing Algo programs, or to open/close particular positions due to manual judgement.
