Allow running simulations in parallel

Currently only one simulation (rank perf, strategy or screen backtest, etc) is allowed per account. Add a way to allow 2 or more requests for additional fee.

NOTE: rebalances are not subjected to this limitation. You can rebalance while running a simulation.

2 would work for me as part of my existing subscription.

I would mainly be interested in the ability to do a ranking or a screen while running a simulation.

I think that is a very good idea. Would certainly pay for that.

Moving this to the queue. Thanks for voting.

I was thinking about this today and noticed no one voted for it or made a pledge, which I just did.

Surely there are enough people to raise $2000 for this project.

Lets get it done.

Here is the pledge link.

Anyone? Surely some others out there would love to run multiple API/manual simulations at once.

You can run multiple sims in the API right now, up to 4.

This was released in April 2026. It seems that we forgot to announce it.

No way! Wow. Thanks! Can I run a manual sim while the API is running one (or 4)?

Is there a cost associated other than API credits?

Bigger question, I use APIUniverse and APIRankingSystem. How does that work with 4 API sims at once? One sim would overwrite a universe of ranking system that another sim is using.

Never mind this. I see a way around the APIUniverse problem and the API RankingSystem was already solved with rank_create.
Thanks
