Cross strategy communication

[dadof3and3]

Is there a way within Ninja to communicate across strategies? i.e can strategy A send a message or value or status to strategy B ?

Thanks for your time and response

Hello,

There is no direct communication between strategies. Strategy A would not have a method to know what Strategy B is doing.

However if it's just a message or value you would like to send from one to another, you could use an indicator to make this calculation and and expose that as a public data type for the strategy to read.


Please see our Reference Sample on Exposing indicator values that are not plots:

Good stuff, thanks. In the example can the strategy use the set() on the bullIndication or bearIndication dataset so another strategy see that set value?

Yes, you can access this from the Strategy

BoolSeries x = SampleBoolSeries().BearIndication;
