Hi
I'm looking to automate a simple trading strategy. I am not experienced in the code writing and wonder if there are posted examples of how to write code for various trade setups?
I have a few generic questions -

Can trading systems be run insimuation mode on a real time basis?

Is there any statistical analysis available for results of a simulated trading system?

Is there anyone available who I can consult with to help me write my program?

Thank you!

The easiest way to do this is to use the Spreadsheet System for Trading study which is documented here:

Yes, use the Trade Statistics tab of the Trade Activity Log:
