Strategy Trades Not Plotting And/Or Disappearing

[TapeReader]

I have a strategy on my chart that is placing trades.

When the strategy places a trade, the trades are not plotting on the chart.

If I remove the strategy from the chart, the trades are plotted.

Any insights into how I can have the strategy plot the trades on the chart when the strategy is running?

Hello TapeReader,

Thank you for your note.

Can you confirm that Plot Executions is not set to DoNotPlot? To check this right click on the Chart>Data Series.

I look forward to your reply.

Hi Alan,

Yes...I should have mentioned this.

Plot executions is set to 'Text and marker'.

Testing Update:

This strategy has a Parameter value, 'Exits' which provides user-variables to define the strategies stop and target.

There are two options for the Parameter value, 'Exits'

1. ATM \\ When this value is selected, the user inputs an ATM template for the strategy to follow.
2. LocalSettings \\ When this value is selected the user enters a stop value and a target value in the strategy's Properties

- (see attached screenshot)

If the strategy is using 'Parameters > Exits' = LocalSettings the trades will plot.

If the strategy is then disabled, the trades will disappear from the chart.

If the strategy is then re-enabled, the prior trades will not be surfaced on the plot - however new trades generated by the bot will be plotted.

If the trader closes the trade out using Chart Trader functionality, the strategy will disable and the plotted trade will disappear.

If the strategy is using 'Parameters' = 'ATM' the trades will not plot.

Any insights into how we can maintain the trade plotting upon disabling/re-enabling the strategy?

Hello TapeReader,

Thank you for the reply.

If this strategy uses ATM's to enter the market it will not run on historical data. That is why you can not see any historical executions when you have this property selected.

This is described here, in "Using ATM Strategies":
