Quote:Are there any plans along the lines of displaying messages from the strategy on the UI? From the stratNotification event or something? Always nice to have a bit more info about what state the strategy is in.
This won't hit gekko plus for a while, it will first get introduced to open gekko (after the new UI hits open Gekko).
Quote:Oops! I'd have thought that would be pretty good assumption too. Always someone who has to be awkward. I just wanted to test the process and I had half a hope that any strategy uploaded would have the option to start paper trading so I could run gekko plus against my vps gekko and compare behavior.
Note that Gekko Plus won't be a free service. You can upload your strategies for free and during the contest everything will be free. i might at some point make paper trading free. But all functionality (like running backtests, live traders, etc) will only be available for paid members. I have spend spend a long time working on this full time, and I do need to eat and pay rent but it will run on open gekko which will stay free (and open source) forever.
If you have a VPS and don't mind managing a Gekko installation there won't be a lot of extra value from using Gekko Plus, think of it as an easy VPS option that comes with strategies, historical data, etc.
