I don’t understand what I see
I was changing small details on a trade bot strategy
https://app.gainium.io/bot/6725f0c83ca9e9510cfcdd13
and got this on a backtest
Are you using entry with % of usdt? Sometimes you get results like that because the bot is not properly configured.
Say you have $10,000. You set the position with 100% total usdt and allow 10 trades, the the bot is going to use $100,000, which you don’t have in your account. You are multiplying by 10 the profit you would have for in reality. The backtester doesn’t take into account what funds are available after opening a trade. That feature is planned in the future.

So this could have been the reason then?
Yes that’s exactly the problem. In this case you should set each base order + dca to 10%, because the bit can open 10 it will be 100% and you will get more realistic results

Shouldn’t that be a check at the configuration of the bot? How should users find out about settings that doesn’t fit together if those aren’t already visible there?
