Making parameters available to strategy scripts

[daqu40]

Hello,

I've got an indicator with several parameters that I need to be able to set when I use it within a strategy. I had all of this working and was fiddling with how I would hide those parameters as I've seen in some 3rd party indicators I have a license to.

I was able to get my indicator's parameters inaccessible to my strategy by adding the tag [Gui.Design.DisplayName("Param Name")].

However when I went to make the parameters accessible I couldn't seem to reverse the process. Simply commenting the new tag did nothing.

I'm noticing that the Ninjascript generated code is always the same and missing the parameters I wish to expose.

How do I get my parameters back? I've even tried starting with a differently named empty stratgey and putting my code in it and still the parameters are not accessible.

Thanks

Hello daqu40,

Thank you for writing in.

Utilizing the [Gui.Design.DisplayName()] attribute should not be causing the particular property with that attribute from being inaccessible to a strategy. All this will do is change the name that appears within the Indicators window for said property.

Can you ensure that you have the [GridCategory("")] attribute for that property? Without this attribute, the particular property will be removed from the indicator method call's parameters.

That fixed it. I had [Category("this category")] and that seems to be why it wasn't working.

Thanks!
