    Another charts

    Hello, Support and All!

    Is it possible to run a strategy independently from a chart?For e.g., is it feasible for a strategy to call indicators from two different charts with different timeframes while the strategy is runnig on any chart with any timeframe.

    Example:

    Chart#1 - 5 Min, Indicator - 1-2-3;

    Chart#2 - 10 Min, Indicator - 3-4-5;

    Chart#3 - whatever (should be ignored) Period, Strategy.Or maybe,if it`s possible, not to use the chart for a strategy at all.

    Hope that`s clear.

    Thx!

    Hello,

    Thank you for the post.

    By running any strategy it would already work independently of any chart in the platform.

    The only time a strategy is actually associated with a specific chart would be if you directly apply a strategy to a specific chart using the strategies menu in that chart. In that case, it would render its visuals on that chart.

    The data your strategy would see would be isolated meaning that when you call indicators, you are not referencing any applied indicator on open charts, but instead, this uses the data the strategy is subscribed to and the other properties like BarsRequired as well. This would either be the instrument you configured when applying the strategy in the control center, or the input series from the chart it was applied to. Using programming It is possible to have a strategy reference multiple timeframes or multiple instruments and these would not relate to any specific chart that may be open.

    This can actually mean that manually applying an indicator may produce a different result than a strategy calling an indicator because they may be using different starting points or amounts of data. You should always have the strategy Add its indicators if you need to see them instead of comparing manually added indicators.

    The Control Center Strategy Tab can be considered the master list of your applied strategies because they all by default get listed in the control center. You can see them working from here, and any that were directly applied to a chart will also display their graphics in the chart where they were applied.

    I look forward to being of further assistance.
