    The basis for its trading is the same. The prices hit stop loss and take profit and are the same regardless of demo or live, or even exchanges quoted on. Viability of a system starts by testing a strategy first on a sandbox then proceeding to live otherwise it is costly to start from live.

    The other option is to place your strategy for others to use as a subscription. There are several of these services around that "host" your strategy.
    C2 is one, but I noticed there are others. Check the places that offer co-location services.

    I've traded, and tested, markets for 20+ years - I know how it goes.

    Demo and live are not the same. The only testing that matters is forward testing with money on the line. Not hypothetical testing.

    Thanks for this. Hopefully someone will help on this live journey with the automated trading system.

    No Problem. Just be aware the C2 backtesting engine does "auto-Magic fills" which gives you the best fills that in reality would not fill at all most of the time. The easiest way to get around it is pad your orders with an extra 2 ticks, (not one).

    Also C2 does not really work well for fast trading because the synchronization engine is delayed anywhere between 1 second to 2 minutes. It is best for swing trades.

    That's the problem of relying on third party engines for trading. Will look at it as suggested. Thanks
