OrbTrader & bots
Start with OrbTrader
Understand the OrbTrader workspace before creating or changing a bot.
The OrbTrader workspace
OrbTrader keeps bot creation, live monitoring, settings, and bot-scoped performance in separate views. Available controls depend on your access and the selected execution path.
- Monitor shows the current run state, quote, conditions, orders, and operational controls.
- Settings contains identity, ORB timing, execution, risk, and filter configuration.
- Performance keeps P/L and bot-specific results separate from the live monitor.
Before creating a bot
- Confirm the intended trading account, instrument, and session timezone.
- Read the reference for the exact bot and platform implementation you will use.
- Start with the smallest configuration needed for the test and verify observed behavior before expanding it.
A saved bot or broker order identifier does not by itself confirm that a trade filled. Verify the live status, filled quantity, and position information.
