IndicoreSDK: Target reached, Lua Code Simulate Pause/Restart

Postby samade123 » Fri Jul 26, 2013 2:26 pm

Hi everyone,

I need help with Pause/Restart strategy in lua code.

Question: Is there any way to restart my strategy using lua code in Indicore/SDK without using the menu item: TSII -- Charts/Alerts and Trading Automation/Configure strategies and alerts/Pause/Restart whenever limit/profit target is reached?

I have tried check and changeparameters procedures but unfortunately they do not work for me.

The Pseudo code of My strategy has the following structure:

function Init()
CheckParameters()
end

function Prepare(nameonly)

end

function update()
process_data()
if Target_Reached then
BankTheGain()
loop to prepare(false) or any function to simulate Pause/Restart
end

Kindly help.

Unfortunately not.
U have to use Strategy algorithm, while it is still active,
to go to "not trading" or "inactive" state.

Thank you apprentice. Kindly elaborate "to go to "not trading" or "inactive" state" if you please.

As you can not turn strategy on and off as you want.
U have to prevent trade execution, during the periods
when it is not desired, from within strategy code.
