Workspace Settings has two sections: your workspace profile and the default parameters for new backtests.

​
General

Update your workspace’s profile information at Settings > General:
  • Name — the display name for your workspace
  • Description — a short description visible to members
  • Logo — upload a PNG or JPG image

​
Backtest Defaults

Backtest Defaults set a shared baseline that prefills every new backtest in your workspace. Instead of configuring the same parameters from scratch each time, your team starts from a consistent starting point. Default settings include:
  • trading pair
  • timeframe
  • date range
  • initial balance
  • execution settings (fees and slippage)

​
Execution settings

The execution settings section controls the cost assumptions applied to new backtests:
  • Trading Fees — maker and taker fee rates, with optional tiered schedules
  • Slippage — choose from None, Fixed, or Volatility Scaled
  • Expert Settings — order routing, advanced fee schedules, and volatility slippage caps
New workspaces start with 0% / 0% maker/taker fees and None slippage. You can update these at any time to match your actual trading conditions.
Note: Fill logic (how orders are executed in the simulation) is handled automatically by Traseq and cannot be changed. You only configure the friction layer — fees and slippage.

​
Where to find it

Go to Settings > Backtest Defaults. You can always override these defaults on a per-run basis from the QuickRun panel.

​
Permissions

Only Owner and Admin roles can edit workspace settings.
