Custom properties aren't available to edit

[akushyn]

Hello,

I just implemented a custom strategy. I use some properties to customize on "Strategies" window by user. And when I implemented such properties in the script I can't see them on "Strategies" dialog.

I've attached two examples:
* in one - there are custom properties
* on another - are not

I copy/paste the source of code and nothing happened.
Piece of code , where I've implemented properties:

	#region Money Management		
	[Description("Max. risk in ticks")]
        [Category("Money Management")]
		[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("Max. Risk")]
        public int MaxRisk
        {
            get { return maxRisk; }
            set { maxRisk = value; }
        }
		
		[Description("Use MM filter")]
        [Category("Money Management")]
		[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("MM Filter")]
        public bool FilterMM
        {
            get { return filterMM; }
            set { filterMM = value; }
        }
		
		[Description("Set Trailing Algoritm")]
        [Category("Trailing")]
		[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("Trailing Algoritm")]
        public AkTrailingAlgoritm TrailingAlgoritm
        {
            get { return this.trailingAlgoritm; }
            set { this.trailingAlgoritm = value; }
        }

		#endregion
		
		#region Work Time

		[Description("Use Work Time Filter")]
        [Category("Work Time")]
		[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("Time Filter")]
        public bool FilterWorkTime
        {
            get { return filterWorkTime; }
            set { filterWorkTime = value; }
        }
		
		
		#endregion

How could I fix this issue?
Thank you in advance!

Hello akushyn,

Thank you for writing in.

Rather than using the [Category()] attribute for your properties, use [GridCategory()].

[akushyn]

Hello,

Thank you for the quick reply. It was helpful and now works fine.

Have another question...
When I add the strategy to the chart , where let say 15 days of history loaded, I try to run"Strategy Performance" to see the end result, but nothing happend. No trades and no any statistic.

What steps should I follow to run correctly "Strategy Performance" ?
I've tried :
* Historical
* Historical & Real Time

My custom strategy enabled on a chart and I use OnBarClose = true calculations in the strategy.

Thank you!

[NinjaTrader_ZacharyG]

Hello akushyn,

I would suggest debugging your code to ensure that trades have, indeed, been made.

In the strategy add prints that print the values of every variable used in every condition that places an order along with the time of that bar.

This will print to the output window.

Below I am providing a link to a video that demonstrates adding prints to a script to get further information about the behavior of the script.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8v_2ONBbqI&feature=youtu.be&t=48m35s

[akushyn]

Thank you , ZacharyG

I am using debugging with print statements as well as its possible in ninjascript. The reason is why I asked the question is that, when I run the strategy in Market Reply in real time I have all trades I need.
But when I run in the way I have described in the previous message - have no trades.

I use EnterLongStopLimit & EnterShortStopLimit type of orders. May be it will help you to help me

Hello akushyn,

There are discrepancies between running a strategy in real-time vs historically/backtest: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ime_vs_bac.htm

Can you confirm that the conditions you have specified in your strategy are becoming true?

Can you confirm that your stop limit orders are executing?

You can set the TraceOrders property to true to help with debugging the behavior of your orders: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...63&postcount=1

Thank you for the answer!

I can confirm that the conditions are becoming true
And I am not sure if limit orders is a good way to backtest.

How would you recommend to adapt orders in the script to be sure to run on back test?

[NinjaTrader_ZacharyG]

Hello akushyn,

You are able to use limit orders in a backtest.

Please ensure that your limit orders are actually filling.

Note that a limit order will not trigger unless the market price is your specified price or better.

You can check if your limit order is being execution with OnExecution(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nexecution.htm

Here is an example:

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
	EnterLongLimit(1, 2000, "MyLimitOrder");
}

protected override void OnExecution(IExecution execution)
{
	if (execution.Order != null && execution.Order.Name == "MyLimitOrder" && execution.Order.OrderState == OrderState.Filled)
		Print(execution.ToString());
}

Are your limit orders filling? Do you see any executions in the backtest results?

[akushyn]

Hello and thank you again for the answer!

I've executed backtest for last week period with Print() statements as you recomended and the Output was empty, except enabling the strategy

Move exitLongStopOrder, new StopPrice: 1324,8

The line smth like "Move exitLongStopOrder, new StopPrice:...." means that StopOrder was modified to a new price into profit.

I am advanced experienced programmer, and I already finished to implement my strategy. (its more than 1500 lines of code with some custom indicators)
And for now , very important part is to optimize the input parameters. And for this I strongly need a backtest mechanism to work.

Thank you. Looking for your further assistance!

Hello akushyn,

Thank you for your response.

Do you have any logic to prevent historical trading or updates to OnBarUpdate() for historical bars?
And example would be having the following at the beginning of OnBarUpdate():

if (Historical) return;

[akushyn]

Hello, Patrick and thank you for helping me!

Nope, I don't use any logic to prevent historical trading.
What I check is that CurrentBar more than 5 bars and more than BarsRequired.

I provide you OnBarUpdate and OnPositionUpdate logic below:
If you need more explanation , let me know

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()

				// calculate signal conditions
				calculate();
				
				string statusString = getStatus();
				DrawTextFixed(AkNotify.BOTTOM_STATUS, statusString, TextPosition.BottomLeft, Color.Blue, font, Color.Gray, Color.Yellow, 80);

				// display Fibo when signal appear
				displayFibonacciRetracements();

					enterLongOrder = EnterLongStop(0,true, 1, this.signal.Points.EntryPoint.Value + TickSize, ENTER_LONG_ORDER_NAME);
				} 
				else if (enterLongOrder != null && Low[0] < this.signal.Points.StopPrice) // continue correction --> cancel pending order

Hello, Patrick

I've sent already the strategy zip file.

I want you to ask , if I have other questions, not related to the topic of "Custom properties aren't available to edit" , what is the better approach for you:
1. ask questions here
2. or create another post with new topic name?
