Communicating Between Script

[webart]

Is there a simple way to have one strategy query another strategy (or several others) for the status of a user defined variable ? Also can that strategy then be backtested along with the strategies it queries.

thx

Last year I published in this forum a basic concept which describes how strategies could exchange data (P/L values in this case).

webart, if you have the needed coding knowledge, you could use this implementation as a basis for your own development:

Thanks Ralph I have read your thread, thanks, I was hoping there might be an easier way Actually I only need to read the MA slope of mulitple instruments, so I think in NT7 I can do this from 1 script,

Thanks for the offer mountain climber, I actually found someone yesterday that is will to help for a fee.

Right way to go webart. Just in case you are not aware: even NT6.5 can handle multi-instrument strategies, but not multi-instrument indicators.

I changed my post below so it reflects what I meant/is more accurate...

Ralph - would it not be easier to just include all of the strat code in one strat? I am thinking so... Nevertheless, good post....

Thanks for the positive feedback, Ben.

Do I understand your question correctly: Implement different strategies as on strategy, handling the trading-position-series separately, and finally having easier access to the statistics of the series without static lists and registration procedures?

My strategy Ralph looks at the slope MA of 2 different instruments and then trades a third instrurment based on the slope MA of the other 2.

Oh, got it!
