Case for MesoLive
One key achievement is that MesoLive's trade selection and management use the same codebase as MesoSim, to the greatest extent possible.
This is a critical feature, highlighted by Ernie Chan in his Algorithmic Trading book:
This ease of switching between backtesting and live execution is more than just convenience: It eliminates any possibility of discrepancies or errors in transcribing a backtest strategy into a live strategy, discrepancies that often plague strategies written in a general programming language whether it is C++ or MATLAB.
MesoLive Pricing
We’ve worked hard to improve the efficiency of MesoLive, making it affordable. Thanks to these optimizations, we’re introducing MesoLive at an introductory price of $25/month.
Note: MesoLive is available as an add-on to MesoSim.
Trial and Compatibility
Before subscribing, please consult our documentation to ensure your strategy is fully supported. Additionally, we recommend utilizing the trial to experience the platform firsthand.
Next steps
We will continue to extend MesoLive and MesoSim compatibility by adding missing features and supporting additional brokerages. In parallel, we plan to expand our Q-API with more functions to assess predictor-target relationships.
