Up to twenty profiles
The fleet runs up to twenty profiles side by side, on the same live market, each in its own slot, so you can compare settings on the same day's stocks. Open it with FLEET in the header.
Setting up a slot
Pick the profile each slot trades. Blank means the slot is empty. L and S say whether the slot takes long entries, short entries, or both, and they override the profile's own Side. P, M and A pick the sessions: premarket, market hours and after hours. Premarket runs from four to half past nine, New York time.
Start, save, stop
START FLEET starts every filled slot. SAVE SET remembers this arrangement as the last-used set, which the schedule can start. STOP FLEET stops every slot taking new entries. Open fleet positions are not closed: FLATTEN ALL does that. Only filled slots start, so an empty slot stays off.
LIVE slots
Tick LIVE on a slot, and with the desk live, its entries go to your broker instead of the paper wallet. The desk asks your code before it starts. MAX LIVE OPEN caps the real-money positions across all live slots together. With paper on, every slot trades paper. Live slots use the real broker only when the desk is live.
Each slot, its own rules
Each position uses its own slot's profile exits. Simulated slots have their own throwaway limits, while an entry from a live slot is checked by the real desk: SYSTEM, the risk limits, MAX LIVE OPEN and locates.
Compare the results
Fleet trades are recorded under their profile name, in the paper journal, or the fleet journal when the desk is live, so JOURNAL and ANALYSE can compare profiles on the same days.
