Trader Education Training and ATS Trading Discord Group

  • More features are to come, so all focus will go into coding and rolling out the updates.

Introducing the ATS.AlgoFuturesTrader.Desktop App

ATS.AlgoFuturesTrader.Desktop
ATS.AlgoFuturesTrader.Desktop for license sync, remote trading, and more

This should ideally be installed before AFT8RC1 is installed. AFT8 will attempt to install and require your permission to install. Install from here: https://algotradingsystems.s3.amazonaws.com/aft-desktop/Publish.html. The following prerequisites are required: .NET Desktop Runtime 7.0.2 (x64). Direct link here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/7.0

AFT Licenses for Live Trading Modes

The AFT8 live licensing is being enforced tentatively as we don’t want to disrupt evaluations and live trading. The system will appraise how NT8 is being used, e.g., in Sim mode or live mode/eval mode, and then check your ATS licenses. If it can’t reconcile a license to allow live account trading or eval trading, it will display a message that can be saved and sent to support to work out a plan. This approach will disable features after a timeout period, allowing time for organization. Please join us in the ATS Trading Discord Group for interactive support and Q&A.

How to upgrade from AFT7 to AFT8

by

ATS Customer Success is Waiting to Facilitate

  • Upgrade fees apply to traders who did not subscribe to the optional annual maintenance, which provides upgrade assurance from AFT7 to AFT8.
  • This includes all prior customers who purchased AFT7 from the exclusive reseller “Omegavus Trading LLC.”
  • The cut-off date is for anyone who bought a lifetime license before June 2022 and did not get upgrade assurance. They are liable for the upgrade fee. Please book a call to verify details below.
  • Do not panic; upgrading is easy and can be done at any time. If you do not wish to upgrade now, no problem.
  • AFT8 will still work for free on sim, demo, backtest, and prop firm evaluation. It only requires a live license for live trading.
  • It is possible to upgrade to a better package, such as the AFT to ATS combo: AFT + AWT.
  • If you are in an AWT subscription, you can even have the fees refunded against the upgrade deal.
  • Typically, the upgrade fee is 35% of the full lifetime ticket price, but it can vary depending on your current subscriptions and prior purchases, such as AWT, if you upgrade to the ATS Combo!
  • Book your upgrade call with ATS Customer Success
    • Upgrade options for AFT and ATS Combo packages will be presented.
    • Payment details and promotions will be provided in the meeting.

For AFT Ultimate Lifetime Owners from 2021/2022 AFT7 to AFT8

Customers who bought the AFT Ultimate reserved access to AFT8 when launched and do not need to upgrade as it was included. However, your AFT licenses will need migrating to the new system so that you can use AFT8 for live trading and access the ultimate features. Your licenses will appear in your ATS Universal Account with the same email login used for purchase. For any questions and queries, you can contact ATS Customer Success on a quick call to resolve and migrate your old account licenses to the new system.

AFT8 Update release v20230524

by

Algo Trading Systems AFT8

AFT8 Update Released: AFT8 Version 2023.5.24.2 This version is running on the algo server in soak test mode—no filters, all signals 100% fully active with a variety of modes. It is operating in the live market as shown in the attached image in the futures trading group.

Note on Version Info: This is the last planned release before the official release. We need to assess feedback from users prior to rolling out the official RC1 version. So far, we are moving forward unless someone provides feedback with a showstopper. The RC1 update, likely to follow this release next week, will include a login and ATS Desktop Control Center. The plan is to combine all the AFT, AWT, and AST into one control center, replacing the AWT Desktop. This will allow one login for both web and desktop applications.

Updating: You can simply run the same installer in your downloads folder or get it again from the trading system downloads page. This installer never changes; its job is to get the latest AFT8 version from the cloud and install it. Once you have it, you don’t need to download it again. AFT8 App updates will also pop up a notification and allow in-place installation on your PC, assuming there is no overzealous antivirus running to block it.

Notes:
System Turnkey Workspaces will be overwritten.
System Settings and templates.
N.B: This is why you need to rename your templates/workspaces to preserve your settings.

AFT8 Changes

AFT8 Algo Trade Entry Position Sizer
Inline CheckBox for Algo Entry module controller for Position Sizing toggle On/Off for real-time settings.
AFT8 Algo Trade Manager Stop Risk Control
Trade Management Control Center – Control for stops and position size quantity. On for Controller, off for algo module control as configured.
AFT Algo Controller Settings Popup
Popup fixes for settings from inline control center—caveats: it will go where the OS wants it.
