10 years ago You are using an unstable dev version of Gekko that does not have real trading implemented yet (mostly because it is not properly tested). Watch this issue for updates regarding this dev version.
This is my config file: // Everything is explained here: // https://github.com/askmike/gekko/blob/master/docs/Configuring_gekko.md
