Does losing connection trigger State.Terminated to run?

[firefoxforum12]

Question 1:
Does losing connection (unrecoverable, e.g. Internet dead for 30 minutes) cause State.Terminated and/or State.SetDefaults and/or State.Configure to trigger?

Question 2:
Does this page also apply to Indicators regarding connection timeout handling (it mentions Strategies, but does not mention Indicators): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...sshandling.htm

Thanks

Hello firefoxforum12,

"Does losing connection (unrecoverable, e.g. Internet dead for 30 minutes) cause State.Terminated and/or State.SetDefaults and/or State.Configure to trigger?"

If the connection loss handling is set to Reload then the script would enter the terminated state and then data loaded state and then back to the historical > realtime state.
If the connection loss handling is set to Keep running, the script would not reload.

This would not apply to indicators, but the connection is fully disconnected and manually reconnected, this would reload historical data on the chart and would reload indicators.

Hello thanks. I noticed when I reconnect after disconnection it will recall State.Configure in my indicator. Is there a way to avoid this or? I only want it to be called when the user EDITS the indicator settings.

I.e. it is NOT called once as per NinjaTrader documentation

In my testing State.Configure is called when you edit something about the indicator setting (OK Great).

But the big problem is its ALSO called when you reconnect an account manually! Why would it do that? Nothing about the indicator settings are changed yet this function is called and basically cooks my code that relies on only running stuff if the user made actual settings changes.

Hello firefoxforum12,

Reconnecting causes historical data to be reloaded which reloads all scripts on all charts. The script will go through State.Configure as it is reloaded.

Thanks. Suggest this be included in the documentation as State.Configure says its run once. This is a huge omission imo.

Hello firefoxforum12,

This will be run once per lifecycle. When scripts are reloaded this reloads the lifecycle.
