Schedules, groups and scheduled actions
Schedules define when an account may run. Schedule groups combine windows, while Schedule Actions perform operations at specified times.
Create and assign a window
- Open Schedules and add a schedule with the intended start and end time.
- Review its random start and stop delays. A permitted start time does not mean every account begins at exactly that minute.
- Assign the schedule to an account, or combine schedules in a group and assign that group.
- Start the account and check its status during the window.
Use scheduled actions deliberately
Schedule Actions can start or stop accounts and perform other operations offered by the action selector. Check the target category and group so an action affects the intended accounts. The program must be running for these actions to execute.
For example, create a morning and an evening window, combine them in a schedule group, and assign the group to a test account. Check the observed times before using the group more widely.
A full-day window does not force continuous trading. Configured breaks, concurrency limits and account stop states still apply. On a server, check its clock and the timezone configuration used by your setup when activity occurs at unexpected times.
