Title: What metrics should my trading bot be taking?

Please move didn't think it fit in securities sub forum...


Ok so I have recently (~4 months ago) I got my trading bot exactly where I want it in terms of algos and the return it is making. I now want to add some metrics the only one I can think of it is P&L. What are some others metrics? Also with P&L is that something taken every day or how does it work, some trading software I have seen only take P&L as the software runs and when application is closed it resets the P&L to 0? How should I handle that.

When you are talking about profit and loss are you talking about your bot having an automated way of recording your income gained from the trade? Or are you talking about something else when you say the word "metrics"? Because its pretty unclear to me as I have never used the term profit and loss as a metric when I am doing technical analysis in trading. You might just be referring to profit-risk or risk/reward ratio which I do think is automatically calculated by your trading bot based on how you set it.

You should try our platform: Yanda.io .
You can set all the metrics for you bot. Although, we suggest to set smaller profit taking (like 0.3-04%) and then after time recalibrate the bot  ;D
Imagine digging through 6 years of threads, and finding one with no replies, and then attempting to advertise your own product via a bitcointalk post.

Not really the most productive use of your time, or the best way to attract users for your site. Start a service announcement. Run campaigns and improve SEO. Reach out the youtube influencers. Not like this, please.
