Two ways to rehearse a trading idea before risking capital: Freqtrade or Kraken CLI.
Two ways to rehearse a trading idea before risking capital: Freqtrade or Kraken CLI.
Freqtrade, an open-source bot, combines backtesting on historical data with a dry-run mode, and its documentation advises always starting in dry-run. Kraken CLI offers paper trading against live Kraken prices, with independent paper engines for spot and futures.
Trade-off: Freqtrade suits rule-based strategies you want to automate and test on history; Kraken CLI paper mode suits checking orders and workflows on one exchange.
Limitation: simulated fills are simpler than real ones, so treat results as a rehearsal, not a forecast.
