I currently have a strategy in NT 6.5 that makes decisions near the end of the day for long-term holding purposes. Every morning I have to reload it, so I'd like to move it to NT 7 where it will pesist.
There is a subtlety, however. This strategy reads in from an external file additional information it needs when I start it up for the day. The documentation implies I should put read-once external information into OnStartUp(). I can do that, but is it re-executed when I re-enable the strategy? If so, then just putting my code there works.
If OnStartUp() is NOT called on a re-enable, what is the exact sequence of routines started on re-eneable. Is there a flag/routine I can call to check that it was JUST re-enabled so I can make a call to read in the current day's file? If so, this is even better, because I could disable a strategy, update an external file, re-enable it, and load new data!
Anyway, I can't shift over until I work this out, because these are my main production codes at the moment.
