Using symbols in Indicators and Strategies names

[vsn_103]

Hello,

1) Is there a way to use symbols in the name of a strategy or indicator?
Usually, for my personal strategies and indicators i put "!" as a first symbol and that moves all my scripts to the top of the list.
Without symbols it is not very convenient.

2) Can I create my personal folders to store my indicators and strategies? I have created a folder for my indicator in VS, but NT didn't like it

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post.

Unfortunately these symbols are not allowed in the class names which we use for the name that is displayed. Therefor they are not allowed.

Furthermore we do not support folding indicators. The best thing you could do is prefix your indicators with your own custom prefix so everything if grouped together in the indicator list.

Thank you for your reply.
What is the reason for it?

I think creating a personal folder for my Indic. and strategies would be a very useful feature.
