It appears Tradestation allows what you want to do out of the box. Running multple strategies on the same chart on a netting account aggregates the positions and nets them out, just like the virtual envirment allows.
I have no experience with Tradesations, but if it is not difficult to port your strategies to TS, then you might be able to get from a to b faster considering everything you want is already built in.
I dug a little bit into reviews, it was a bit old, not recent, but lots of reports of the software being buggy and can crash. So I'll try in MT5 since I trust this platform to be stable.
I will work from that virtual trade server and add some safety features of widest SL on broker, just incase the EA crashes or VPS crashes.
Based on what ChatGPT is telling me, I'll have to modify every EA to work in the virtual environment, as I am exporting them from SQX.
The current SQX Exports work great, compile 100% every time. However they are made to work stand alone.
I'm reading Bob Pardos book and realizing, in this world we are in, we must create the solutions we need to advance and keep our edge.
He was innovating in the 1990s. Wild to read how far we have come, living in the dream he had hoped for us...
Life is good.
Thanks everyone for your help.
And yes, please check your egos guys, it's a waste of our time.
Experience of time is not always the best thing, a positive attitude and creativity and persistence are also good qualities... sometimes a fresh mind can see and think of things that hasn't been seen before.
My motto is "Teamwork makes the dreamwork"...
Life is short. Let's help lift each other up and see the best in all of us!
I have been working with computers since the mid 1990s as a teenager.... I remember the 386 as Bob Pardo mentions in his book...
I don't claim to be smarter than anyone else, even though I am older than some of these young kids. But they continue to amaze me with what they are able to do...
And I do honor my elders and those with more experience than me.
All points are valid.

Yeah, that is a cost of having more built-in features in a trading platform. When a bug arises in a feature, it's built-in and you can't fix it. Years ago, I observed such a bug in TradeStation's built-in Renko charts, e.g., duplicate bricks drawn, freezes, etc.
In contrast thereto, you can readily fix/edit any custom coded MQL5 utility as long as you have the source code. That is what I meant when I previously mentioned granular control in this thread.
