Arg! Why does Resetting the Database remove Strategies - without warning?
At the moment, I am running NT without a connection. I also have a complex Workspace set up. As part of weekend maintenance, I like to remove unneeded trace and log files. When I go Tools -> Database Management -> Reset DB, it states:
This will remove historical trade data from the dat6abase. It will not remove chart data: Historical Orders; Historical executions.
Executing this option also -- without notice -- removed all of the strategies in my workspace. Since I have a complex workspace set up, removing these strategies represents a couple of hours of lost work. Furthermore, at no place is a notice or warning provided that strategies will be removed as a consequence of this function.
I love 90% of NT, but this is part of the 10% I hate. It gives the impression you guys don't use your own product. When you remove strategies without notice, which can take a few hours to set up, there's a problem.
Thanks,
