    Strategy instead of an indicator

    If I use an indicator that calculates prices and stores them in a List<double> for a strategy to access and place orders by it, would it be cleaner to copy all logic from the indicator to the strategy?

    Bottom line, are there any known issues with using a strategy for indicator roles?

    savekad,

    There aren't any known issues of doing this. Indicators are sort of designed to be more of the "work-horse" for strategies (as well as for plotting on charts, so they have access to the plotting methods) however there is nothing stopping you from performing much of your calculations and logic in the strategy.
