Long time for strategy to enable

[roberto2014]

Hi

This is my code....

I have variours time series being added in Initialize() method and tonne of variables being used in the code. The startegy is taking atleast 15 min to enable itself when I try to enable in the strategy window. ..... I have even kept barsrequired to zero in parameters.



Please help.
