Task Manager
A task manager is a device used to organize and control any number of tasks, which, in turn, control bot instances. You use a task manager to start or stop several tasks at the same time.
Content
Task managers are used both in the context of data mining and trading operations, to facilitate the organization of tasks.
For example, you may set up a task manager to handle tasks related to a particular set of indicators used with a certain strategy. Or, for example, to organize multiple backtesting sessions.
Tip: The key aspect of a task manager is that it allows starting and stopping all tasks at once.
