Setting default strategy settings (Data series type = minute, value = 15)

[eduffield]

Hello,

I want to compile something, and when I click "Add Strategy" I'd like all of the initial values set by the source code. Something like this:

MovingAvPeriods = 14

//set the default to 15 minute bars
DataSeries.Type = Minutes
DataSeries.Value = 15

//set the instrument default to $EURUSD
DataSeries.Instrument = "$EURUSD"

This is all pseudo code, how do I actually tell the system to setup my strategy like that?

Thanks,

Evan

Hi Evan, once your paramters are all set from the UI, you could right click and 'set to default' - this way they would be saved to a default template that would be used whenever you readd your strategy.

Can you elaborate on how to have the a default data series for new strategies?
