At various stages during the development of TRAITS we have initiated a live run with paper trades, which involves updating the system on a daily basis with live data and sending the daily trading decisions to selected third parties for inspection and validation. The entire live run process is completely automated, and trading decisions are sent out before the markets open each morning.

Details of current and past live runs are shown in the following table. Click on the live run names for more information.
