Did you backtest the strategy first?

Most strategies only work in certain market conditions (Strong trend / no trend, ...) or against specific pairs (low volume / high volume), so backtesting a strategy for an extended timeframe (a few months) is highly reccomended to see how the strategy performs in different scenarios.

Also, strategies can behave very differently - from a handfull buys per month to 10s of trades per day.
Backtesting and comparing strategies will give you a good feel for how the strategy will behave.

Please do not rely on the results from the start page - as noted there, these are results from the beginning of 2018 - which was a completely different market than what it is today.

@xmatthias right, in backtesting this strategy has very limited amount of trades, like 28 for 137 days for all pairs:

And this depends on current trends and market conditions. You should probably wait for a couple of weeks till it generates first trade...

Great info, I guess it is working correctly and there is probably no issue.
I will keep it going. Thanks.

| TOTAL | 28 | -2.43 | -67.94 | -0.03405653 | -22.65 | 2 days, 7:55:00 | 19 | 9 |

i'm not sure i would want to do that if you look at the "TOTAL" column above...

This strategy doesn't seem all that profitable (-2% in the last 4 months ...) in current market conditions.

@xmatthias No worries I understand, currently I'm just messing around with running the bot and strategies, which one do you suggest?

Hyperopt can help you... Without hyperopt (if you cannot create hyperopt class for choosen strategy), run backtesting for all strategies you are interesting in.
