Optimization show up issues

[cincai]

I having some of the StrategyBaseConverter to help me display some properties based on some condition.

For example, if we choose SMA, then it will show up another properties and then user can fill up.

However, I noticed that in the optimization, the value didnt show up.
Once i Command out the StrategyBaseConverter, it show up again.

Any idea help me to solve this ??

Or else, can you give me the code to access the strategy analyzer -> backtest type --> optimization so that i can make a condition in my StrategyBaseConverter there

Hello cincai,

Thanks for the post.

Before I try this on my end I wanted to clarify, did you mean "once I Command comment out" as in removing the StrategyBaseConverter from your strategy class and returning to a standard strategy?

Also what specifically is not showing up? The properties or the values of those properties, or the whole strategy?

I am not certain if the backtest category can be used from the base converter, you can certainly check if that's going to help with your specific use case. You can detect the optimization like the following:

if (State == State.Configure)
{
    if (Category == Category.Backtest)
      Print("Strategy is running a regular backtest ");
   else if (Category == Category.Optimize)
      Print("Strategy is running an optimization ");
   else if (Category == Category.WalkForward)
      Print("Strategy is running walk forward optimization");
   else if (Category == Category.MultiObjective)
      Print("Strategy is running a multi objective optimization ");
   else if (Category == Category.NinjaScript)
      Print("Strategy is running on an account from a chart/strategies tab ");
}

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Hello cincai,

That's correct, that is a strategy only property. Only strategies can be selected in the analyzer.


I look forward to being of further assistance.
