Historical data reference when running a strategy from Strategies tab

[allisonyz]

My strategy needs to reference the past 20 day's closing price. It works as expected during backtest. However, when I ran the strategy from the Strategies tab, it only used past 10 day's historical data. How do I set a start date for "seeding" the historical data when running a strategy from Strategies tab?

I've looked at the Help file for "Running a NinjaScript Strategy from Strategies Tab". The screenshot under step 4 shows a "From" field under "Time frame" section. I don't see this field in my version (I'm using NT6.5) though.

allisonyz, welcome to our forums here - you want to setup your chart default lookback as needed for this as the strategies started from 'the tab' would use this setting, too. It can be found under Tools > Options > Data.

Thanks! It solved the problem.
