Maybe you stopped a strategy by mistake, or maybe you’re ready to give a successful one another run. Whatever your reason, restarting a strategy is simple with Capitalise.
How to restart a strategy
Go to My Strategies
Click on the Stopped tab to view all your inactive strategies
Find the strategy you want to restart, then click on the menu icon
A dropdown menu will appear with two options:
Two options for restarting
1. Play
This option will immediately restart your strategy and move it back to your live strategies list.
The strategy will continue using the same conditions you set originally.
Note: The strategy’s P&L and history will remain visible on its page.
2. Clone
Cloning will copy the original strategy into the Strategy Creation Wizard.
From there, you can edit it or launch it as-is.
This will create a new and separate strategy.
Your original one remains unchanged.
Why the Play button might be greyed out
Sometimes, you’ll find that the Play button is disabled.
This typically happens because:
The strategy was stopped while orders were still open
The asset is no longer available
There’s a technical issue
In these cases, the only way to restart the strategy is to clone it first and then click Play on the new version.
