What data powers backtests?
All Algonney backtests and Strategy Boost runs use Binance Spot historical OHLCV. The engine uses closed 1-minute candles and resamples them to the selected timeframe.
Read the full backtesting methodologyWhat changes between a backtest and live trading?
Backtest results will differ from live trading because the historical dataset is Binance Spot while live bots trade perpetual futures. Basis, funding, liquidity, fees, slippage, latency, order-book depth, and exchange conditions can change results.
What data powers paper and live trading?
Paper trading uses the same exchange-specific futures candles and strategy logic as live trading. Orders and balances are simulated; no real funds are used.
What Is an OKX Trading Bot?
An OKX trading bot is software that connects to your OKX account via API keys and automatically executes trades based on predefined strategies. Instead of watching charts around the clock, a trading bot can analyze price movements, technical indicators, and market conditions to place buy and sell orders on supported OKX markets on your behalf.
