    NT8 if (BackTestMode == BackTestMode.WalkForward)

    Hello,

    In NT7 I would use the following code to extract the trade results from WalkForwardAnalysis to a text file that allowed me to graph the complete PNL of an entire WFO execution that spanned many months.

    I am converting from NT7 to NT8 and hoped you could tell me what the NT8 expression would be that I could place in if(State==State.Terminated).

    In NT7 I used...
    protected override void OnTermination()
    {
    if (BackTestMode == BackTestMode.WalkForward) { vExtractPerformanceTrades_ToFile(); }
    }

    I can`t find any references to BackTestMode in NT8 help or an equivalent property.

    Can you please tell me if there is a way for a strategy to know if its being executed in WalkForward mode ?

    Please let me know ?

    This is an undocumented property and subject to change/break in future releases, but you may try:

    Category == Category.Backtest
    Category == Category.WalkForward
    Category == Category.NinjaScript // normal
