I could not understand from the documentation in your web site if TradeSim can do a few things that are basic for "real life portfolio simulation":

1. rank buy signals (based on programmable rules) and - in presence of capital limits - select (and execute) the most promising ones.
2. can we terminate a trade early once it is passed to the portfolio context? For example, we might want to terminate a trade early if a better one comes along.
3. reference portfolio equity when making buy and sell decisions. In reality, it might be reasonable to dump the entire portfolio if its value falls 10%. Can we simulate something as simple as this with TradeSim?.

Kindest regards
