This screen is part of the Vole Bot package.
Signal Strategies is the catalog of strategies your Signal Bot is watching with. Each row is one strategy running on one symbol and one timeframe — and none of it ever places a trade. Signal Bot only records what it sees.

Summary tiles

At the top of the page:
  • Defined — how many signal strategies you’ve set up in total.
  • Producing — how many are active right now, meaning the engine is recording signals for them.
  • Paused — defined, but not currently running.

The table

Each row shows:
  • Strategy and Version — which strategy definition and version it’s running.
  • Symbol and TF — the market and timeframe it’s watching.
  • Signal Timing — when in the candle a signal counts as triggered.
  • Status — active or paused.
  • Last Run / Last Signal — when the engine last checked in, and when it last recorded a signal.
Press New Signal Strategy to add one — pick a strategy, a version, a symbol and a timeframe. Deleting a row removes the definition only; any signals it already produced stay in your Signals history.
A strategy showing no recent signal isn’t necessarily a problem — most signal strategies only fire on specific conditions (like a trend flip), so quiet periods are normal. The engine status below is what tells you whether it’s actually watching.

Engine status

Near the top of the page, a badge shows whether the signal engine — the process that actually records signals — is:
  • Running — actively watching, with a note on how recently it last checked in.
  • Idle — running fine, just with no active signal strategies to watch.
  • Down — not currently ticking. Use the control next to the badge to start or restart it.
Starting or restarting the engine only affects whether new signals get recorded going forward — it never opens or closes a trade, and any signals already recorded stay exactly as they are. The same three-state indicator also appears as a small dot next to Signal Bot in the left-hand menu, so you can check engine health at a glance without opening this page.
