Not a veteran bot user, but when I tried in the past, each was perfectly capable of running many strategies concurrently, each keeping its own records, easy to compare side by side in the same bot. And this was years ago. Pretty sure things have advanced by now.
At the height of my trading career mid to late 2017 (well, in a bull market, everyone can claim to be a trader ...
) I set up an open source bot based on Gecko. This bot already does exactly what you describe and can, for example, carry out several different runs with different bot strategies concurrently. I liked the paper trading/backtracking feature best at that time. You can try out your trading strategies in Gecko based on historical data and thus determine whether you would have made a profit or not. Maybe that also would be an opportunity for you OP to determine which strategy would be the most suitable here: Download an open source trading bot and use paper trades/backtracking to test which approach would have brought you the most profit (or, as in my case, the least loss).
You can find information about Gecko here. The project is no longer being developed, but that should not be a problem for this application.
Exactly. And I've stayed well out of trading, let alone using bots for years now, but can't help but see during 2017/18 even Gunbot tout these functionalities. Think more recently HaasOnline got a major upgrade that lets you do all those things too -- historical backtracking sounds pretty cool, but strategies that worked well in past don't tend to in current/future markets no?
And yeah, everyone can claim to be so smart in a bull market, I certainly recall all the proud posts of winning strategies being peddled to this day;)
