OpenClaw Trader Tests Paper Trading Algorithm
Marc Charts begins multi-week paper trading test with #OpenClaw algorithm for $SPY-RO/RO
Paper Trading Test with #OpenClaw Algorithm Launched
OpenClaw trader Marc Charts began a multi-week paper trading test on March 16, 2026. He is testing a trading algorithm for the $SPY-RO/RO index. Unlike live trading, no real money is being used - only simulated trading takes place.
Transparency via Discord
A special feature of this test is transparency: All executed trades are forwarded via a Discord connection. Charts emphasizes that he will be "facilitate and keep informed on trades taken," meaning he will be kept up to date on all trading activities.
In-Sample and Out-of-Sample Testing
The algorithm is being tested with both historical data (in-sample) and new, unknown data (out-of-sample). This approach allows testing the robustness and generalization ability of the algorithm. Additionally, a "walkthrough" is being conducted to analyze the system's performance under various market conditions.
Results Coming in Coming Weeks
Charts has announced that he will publish test results in the coming weeks. This creates transparency and allows the community to follow the algorithm's performance. The test is part of the OpenClaw community, which focuses on algorithmic trading and trading strategies.
