Command line or other testing support?

[heech]

Hi,

Is there any way to access the Strategy Analyzer either via command line, or via some sort of programmatic control?

I would like to have a standard "battery" of back-test cases (different instruments, different input parameters, different timeframes). Whenever I update my strategy code, I'd like to run a script that runs through these test-cases, and then add up all the results. More or less standard programming concept.

I think that would be an extremely useful feature to have.

Unfortunately not.

But... that's a great idea and you'll look into making it available?

A programmable hook into the analyzer would be wonderful.

Thanks for your suggestion. We'll add it to the list of future considerations.

Just to add my vote to this - a comprehensive way of executing a series of backtests/optimises, all with predefined parameters would be very useful.

Which leads nicely on to, a way to automatically start ninja trader and run a strategy at a specified time would be incredibly useful. I realise that we might not want to encourage people to stay in bed rather than monitor their trading, but that could be a disclaimer eh?

thanks
Dave

Hi Dave,

I will forward your suggestion to our development team and ask them if they can add this to the list of future considerations for the software.

Thank you for your feedback.
