What version of NinjaTrader 8 are you using?

Are you able to replicate with the attached strategy?

I look forward to your reply.

Hi NT -

I'd like to report a bug I've replicated twice that pertains to Strategies attached to a Chart and "enabled" in the Strategies Tab. I am using the latest build of NT.

BUG: Strategies attached to Chart have to be enabled on the Chart. If enabled within the Strategies Tab they will not trigger orders.

Scenario:
1) I've attached "ABC" Strategy to a Chart.

(2) I "enable" this instance of the Strategy within the Strategies Tab (not on the Chart) the Strategy will show up as "Enabled" but the color of the Strategy Name will remain "white" and not "Yellow."

(3) ABC Strategy will not trigger orders.

(4) Unselect "Enabled", and now select the Chart's Strategy icon. I "enable" the ABC strategy from within the Chart and it works.

Long story short, it appears you have to "enable" a Strategy that's attached to a Chart within the Chart's Strategy settings.
