I am not sure what you are stating, so it is likely I am missing the poignant matters you state.

I think the most important message from my last post is :

• You/we are in the lap of the Gods for how PRT – server side ! – deals with our trades in the communication (interfacing) with the two brokers – IG and IB. There is no influence from you, the client, possible, so steering that in good order is eminent. The sheer fact that the two brokers each have their own massive list of rules, implies that all these rules should be made known to the AI or else only misery (thrown out Systems)  come from it.
• Nobody can make known these rules, because they are not simply listed somewhere. We run into them instead. Note : it takes many months throughput to test this all in Live-Live, knowing that Live-Live is the only real representative for all what can happen (like, no broker present in Demo-Live and therefore half of the misery not happening, the other half still does because it won’t occur in BT – only in ProOrder).

Somewhere in here lives a thread where about each day I could mention a new error message from IG, stopping my system for thus again another reason.
Attached a small list of the past month or so, of the throwouts I accept (I just restart and be done with it). I have hundreds of these – probably way more than 1000, divided over 50 or so reasons, say 45 solved. Solved how ? by not executing certain commands, not executing them too frequently, not execute them in certain time periods, and then 40 reasons more – those reasons being different for IG than for IB.
Plus as we all know : what I as a person may squeeze out of PRT / trading, is in no way equal to what you would do. What we challenge for is thus also different.

So summarized : if that is not incorporated, then your glossary of commands is fairly useless. What would lead to something IMO, is the discussions in a forum like this (which readily is the only forum about PRT anyway). I recall a last nice discussion between a few (me, GraHal and a couple more) when IG announced a different strategy for amending their rejections policy (= System throwouts) all in the realm of “more happy users”. I forgot the real subject but it was related to Limit Orders from now on being transferred to Market orders so that their internal systems would not reject (under the normally present regime of “price is not present any more”). Let’s say this was a discussion of 50+ posts, everybody guessing what the letter we all received form IG, its real merits were (which for IG is always negative as they do all to get more of your money). Now, *that* is a dicussion for an AI to grasp “intelligence” from, most certainly more into the history of times. It would readily conclude what is really going on, especially looking at the dates after the installment of that letter.
It-is-the-only-such-discussion I recall, so generally useless. There are no releasenotes. There are a million complaints, nothing ever stated solved (but things get solved). There is thus nothing for an AI. No-thing (except for that one discussion). This is so f*cked up that it is a sheer waste for several reasons to begin with.
And again I say : it is not Ninja (now not addressed as NT which could have been confusing). Millions of discussions, infinite release notes, uncountable number of solutions or reasoning about client side code which does not exist with PRT. It is a missed opportunity (but by accident) which will never recover.

I did not see that one coming at all. But today it is sheer fact.
But who knows … You may come up with the good ideas and I will gladly listen.
Kind regards,
Peter

PS: *are* you familiar with other platforms, as I suggested ?

Neo when ‘Quoting’ it is best to only highlight a small part (as I did above) of a previous post then click the Quote button.

We can easily click back to the full original post if we need to read the whole post etc.

If we highlight whole posts it becomes messy, too much uneeded text and more scrolling to get to the new posted text etc.

Just a gentle tip anyway.
