How to enable a GUI interface for changing strategy variables through the chart

[nikolaalx]

Hi,
I am interested to know if it is possible to add input fields/selectors on a chart, that can be used to input/change existing variables that are used in the strategy while it is running on that same chart?

I am asking because I want to add a variable input for key price action zones...but I do not want to disable, input, enable my strategy every e.g. half an hour because of this.

Any information will be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello Nikolaalx,

Thank you for your note.

While we haven't tested thoroughly you can try using static variables or methods that you can then write in your values that will update the static variable that the strategy is then reading from.
