Strategy Parameters

[astrolobe]

Can anyone tell me why the first parameter does not show up in parameter dialog when adding a strategy to a chart? The only real difference is the "Category" name. It appears the only category that works for strategies is "Parameters"...is this correct?

[Description("Number of contracts for Condition 2 Second Limit contracts")]
[Category("Contracts")]
[Gui.Design.DisplayNameAttribute("Qty for targetLMT2")]
public int CntsLMT2
{
get { return cntsLMT2; }
set { cntsLMT2 = Math.Max(0, value); }
}

[Description("Condition 2, First limit price offset from Close, in ticks")]
[Category("Parameters")]
public int ELMT1offset
{
get { return eLMT1offset; }
set { eLMT1offset = Math.Max(0, value); }
}

Hi astrolobe, unfortunately using custom names is not supported.

Hi Bertrand, is it just not supported for strategies, as I have used "Visual" as a category in indicators that has worked?

astrolobe,

The technique is not supported for both. It may or may not work in an indicator, but is not recommended or suggested by us.
