"Properties" region use

[SkyIsMyLimit]

Hi:

The Ninjascript Wizard creates a region called "Properties" at the bottom of the code. I do not understand the purpose of this region, and do not see a good explanation for this in the help files. Can anyone help with understanding this section and how to use it (examples) ?

One other question:
In the Strategies tab, I set the "Data series Type=min and Value=5" in order to get 5-min bars. However, I prefer to hard-code this in my script and not have to depend on this being set correctly manually when adding the Strategy. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

SkyIsMyLimit,

Please see this tip which discusses creating parameters for your script which uses the Properties region: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=5782

Unfortunately you cannot hard code 5min into the script, but what you can do is set it up as 5min and then right click on that grid and select "Set Default".

Thank you very much for your (quick :-) help.
That answers my questions.
