Copy Strategies
Copying clones a strategy into your library so you can edit, backtest, and invest in your own version.
How to copy
Section titled “How to copy”1
Open a strategy from Explore or a public profile.
2
Click Copy.
3
A new strategy appears in Strategies with a copy name.
After copying
Section titled “After copying”Your copy is fully independent:
- Edit the tree in the builder
- Run backtests on your changes
- Invest with your own capital allocation
The original author’s strategy is not modified.
Import Composer symphonies
Section titled “Import Composer symphonies”Use import when you have a Composer symphony JSON export. Quantly converts it into a native strategy tree.
This is different from Copy, which clones a strategy that already lives on Quantly (for example from Explore).
1
Go to Strategies and click Import Strategy.
2
Enter a name for the strategy in Quantly.
3
Paste the Composer symphony JSON into the Strategy JSON field.
4
Click Import Strategy. Quantly converts the export and opens the new strategy in the editor.
- Backtest after copying - small default differences may affect results
- Rename the copy to reflect your version
- Compare your edits using branch history in the editor
