Hello SC Team,

I searched through documentation and did not find clear solution to my question.

I have several automated strategies with slight variation in each. i want to test all of them with live data using realistic fill and slippage.

How can i test them simultaneously and get the statistics for each data? For example, if i have 10 different algo, i want to know the performance of each algo for a particular trading day. Currently, all the results are mixed into same sim account and i have to manually separate for different strategies. Is there an easier way? please advise.

Thank you.

If you are using the built-in Simulation mode, then you can have as many Simulation accounts as you want to be able to separate out the information by Sim account. Refer to the following information:
Trade Simulation: Multiple Trade Simulation Accounts

If you are using our Simulated Futures Trading Service, then you can create multiple accounts for that service and again, use a different account for each run to separate the information. Refer to the following:
Simulated Futures Trading Service: Setup Instructions

Another option is to tag the trades with one system versus another with a different "Note". Refer to the following:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Text Tag
