Strategies Not Working on Charts

[titleistbb22]

New to Ninja 7 - I backtested my strategy on Strategy Analyzer and everything went as expected, however when I use the same strategy, same instrument, same time frame and attempt to run the strategy on a chart I get no trades executed and none of my indicators drawn.

Please advise, I can include screen shots if needed. thx

titleistbb22,

I suggest you check your Control Center logs to see if you have any errors. Also, when you add the strategy onto the chart have you enabled the strategy? If the strategy is being listed with a (D) on the top left of the chart, it is currently disabled and you need to enable it.

Attached are screen shots of the control center log and the chart with (D) on it. I also included the historical performance of the strategy on the chart along with the chart and performance using the strategy analyzer.

titleisbb22,

When you add the strategy to the chart there is a parameter to Enable / Disable the strategy. It defaults to disabled, and you need to toggle it to Enabled.

that works - thanks - what is the logic if even having an enable feature?

Enabled is needed for the new strategy persistence features. As you restart NT and such your old strategies will still be present, but in a disabled state. Strategies need to be enabled to begin them.
