programmatically read the type of unit

[pintope]

Hello everybody,

does anybody know how to programmatically read the type of unit (currency, percent or points) in strategy analyzer? Screenshot attached.

I have located these classes:

namespace NinjaTrader.Strategy
{
    public enum PerformanceUnit
    {
        Currency = 0,
        Percent = 1,
        Points = 2,
    }
}

namespace NinjaTrader.MarketAnalyzer
{
    public class NetChange : NinjaTrader.MarketAnalyzer.Column
    {
        private Strategy.PerformanceUnit	unit	 = Strategy.PerformanceUnit.Percent;
    }
}

I cannot find where the object with "PerformanceUnit" is instantiated. I think it's simply unreachable but who knows whether some of you has the key.

Thank you.

pintope, sorry for our late reply - what are you looking to create where this would be needed to accessed?

I'm unfortunately not really aware of a way for accessing the setting chosen. Our next major update will be more flexible in setting a default value here.

Hello Bertrand,

I have managed to transmit via WCF all statistics of the optimization space from NinjaTrader to an application I am developing. The point is most statistics are stored as currency, percent and points. For example:

strategy.Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Currency.AvgEtd
strategy.Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Percent.AvgEtd
strategy.Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Points.AvgEtd

If I’d know the selected type of unit, I’d save some bandwidth and memory.

I could transmit stats in points and later calculate in currency and percentage, but this approach has also disadvantages. I want all stats be calculated in one place, NinjaTrader.

Thank you.
