Error Message
In this section you will find all the errors that can be generated when using this software. All errors are displayed via a red pop-up that appears next to our software.
For this software you can find two different error runtimes:
1) Bankruptcy
'Bankruptcy! The equity line of this backtesting is negative. Try the backtesting again using different parameters, or reduce or increase the test period.'
This error indicates that the performance of the strategy with the current parameters did not produce a profit but on the contrary brought the account balance below zero. To resolve this error, you can reduce the period of analysis time by focusing on shorter and different time periods, for example. This will help you understand under which specific market conditions it is best to avoid using this algorithm. A second alternative to solve this problem is to use different configuration parameters, e.g. by changing the number of orders to be executed, the order multiplication percentage or the percentage distance at which new orders can be opened. To change these parameters, go to the 'Inputs' section of the user interface.
2) Insufficient liquidity
'Insufficient liquidity to execute trades. Please reduce the initial order amount or increase the total capital of the strategy.'
This error indicates that the algorithm does not have enough funds to execute the required trades. Remember that this strategy, as described in the official KuCoin documentation uses a martingale type system to multiply the size of new orders. To solve this problem, all you need to do is modify the individual order parameter in the 'Properties' section of the user interface, either by reducing the value of the initial order (A), or by increasing the total capital of the algorithm (B).
