Backtesting is running the strat on the history of market data (local data we downloaded.) No watcher needed.
Paper-trading is a simulation on the real time market data. And tradebot is running the strat on the exchange with "real cash"
.. These 2 need a watcher to check the current price.
I did not know that we can extend the history data. So, I will extend them to the current date. And run PaperTrader to check the how it calculates warm-up data.
By the way, do you run TradeBot? And, how ? On the cloud or your own machine ?
