There has must be a better way to troubleshoot the code execution of live strategies other than this.
Launching analysis for L-c9f5d1975e8cd76a8160200c04edb5fd with LEAN Engine v2.5.0.0.15467
I'm paying for two live servers and I have tried six different strategies over the last several weeks and this
is the output.
Can someone tell me what the execution interval is for strategies?
Is there a way to increase the verbosity level of the logging as a whole?
Is there some interactive console I can activate to watch the code actually execute?
I've already looked into the QCAlogrithm log but that seems equivalent to the old days of BASIC and printf.
Thanks,
Douglas Sterner
I'm really hoping that someone might be able to offer a suggestion on how to troubleshoot this issue?

So this continues to be a problem I can not get any strategy to run Live they simply sit there for days on end. Can someone provide some insight into why this is occurring. I have tried Quantconnect paper and Tradier paper results are the same.

Can someone confirm if I am warming up my indicators correctly in this code snippet. My strategy never executes when it goes live.

Hi Douglas
I think warm up was looking fine. The execution in live is very similar to backtest. Probably you need to check if your trading criteria was met or not. If you need further assistant, contact support@quantconnect.com for private live support issue.
