Write Your Own Trading Bots in Dakota
Yes, you can write your own adaptive trading bots in Dakota using our built-in ScriptBot Editor (not available in Dakota Express)  In fact, this is our preferred method for new bot development, because it is easy and does not require jumping out to a separate compiler.  Modifying a bot during prototyping is as simple as making the change, typing Ctrl-S to save and then pushing the "Go" button in Dakota.
