I just can't figure out how to make Strategy Analyzer do anything, I have a very slow connection where I am currently so couldn't search a bunch of topics.
I read the help document and watched the video linked in it..
#1. When running Strategy Analyzer do I need to be connected to my data feed or Market replay or other? I'm pretty sure I need to be connected to my data feed.
#2 The On the fly option appears to do absolutely nothing. Clicking on it and then clicking back test gives me the pop up window for the strategy parameters but there is always a default ES 06-15 for the instrument. It allows me to change this but then what contract date should I enter when I enter an instrument? I have tried a few but I am apparently not doing something correctly. All I get is a chart that appears to have about an hour and 15 minute bars. I have selected 5 minute bars.
I show no trades at all just a chart.
#3 I am completely lost in how to add a list of instruments. When the pop up appears It asks for a master instrument. WTF is that supposed to be? Also If I try to enter an instrument It actually asks me to chose the exchange also. You can't be serious, I have to know every instruments exchange and everything just to put a list of instruments in a list. Also tick value, point value? There is nothing about this in the Strategy Analyzer section, is there somewhere else I need to look to actually put a list of instruments in there?
