LucraX refuses to enable two live strategies on the same credential
- exchange pair at the same time. This is by design.
Why
- Position bookkeeping is per-symbol on most venues. Two strategies trading the same symbol with different stops would fight for the same position.
- Isolated margin closes are direction-aware on LNMarkets - a generic "close opposite side" would open new positions, not flatten the existing one. Two strategies would race.
- Native SL/TP attachment is per-position. Two strategies attaching different stops would clobber each other.
Workarounds
- Multiple sub-accounts at the same exchange = multiple credentials = multiple strategies. Many exchanges support sub-accounts under one parent.
- Different exchanges for variant strategies on the same symbol.
- One strategy with both long and short rules can express what two separate strategies would do, while keeping a single position context.
