check the "live trading servers" - line:

:)

I checked the 'Live trading server', not exactly sure what you meant.  Below is a basic algorithm with a basic strategy, am I missing something related to fully automated orders?  The backtest displays orders filled, but when switched to 'go live', it only responds to a manually input order (wanting this action completed automatically, without per trade inputs from myself).  When developing my personal strategy, I never actually learned to automate orders, only to collect/analize/plot the data.  Came to this platform to try to figure that part out. Scouring through the github got me a little further, but to full automation.  I think I have followed the documentation, if not, where do I need to delve a bit deeper? The **'d section is where I am thinking I have done something incorrectly, but not really certain, and am stuck on what to do.
