Updating plot window name

[gg80108]

My StrategyPlot(0).Value updates ok as expected, but the "StrategyPlot(0).Name" only updates when I reload the strategy, moved the StrategyPlot(0).Name to different sections of the code but no help..
Maybe the "StrategyPlot(0).Name" only loads when the strategy is started by design, if so any workaround?


StrategyPlot(0).Value.Set(profit + Position.GetProfitLoss(Close[0], PerformanceUnit.Currency));

StrategyPlot(0).Name ="PNL TodayB " + (profit + Position.GetProfitLoss(Close[0], PerformanceUnit.Currency)).ToString(" $#.#")+
" Account History: "+ "Days ="+SessionCtr.ToString()+ " PNL: " + realized.ToString("$#.##") +" DD: " + drawdown.ToString("$#.##")+ "\n";

Hello gg80108,

You may run into issues trying to set the name based on performance calculations, as these are simply not available at the start of the strategy run.

If you want this type of info as the strategy is running, using DrawTextFixed() is one alternative.

You can set the name of the plot when you add it. There is nothing reserved about the name StrategyPlot() so feel free to name yours PNLToday when adding and setting.
