Indicator hosting

[mballagan]

I have a strategy which works in backtest mode it hosts multiple indicators which in turn each host a child indicator. In theory is it possible to convert this strategy to realtime mode with minimal effort? The state would move from historical to realtime for both the strategy and the indicators. Also in the backtest the tick replay option is used is there a realtime equivalent?

Hi mballagan, thanks for writing in.

Test the strategy in the Playback connection to make sure it works in real time. Tick replay is not available in the strategy builder, so you would need to implement a 1 tick series as shown here. Tick replay is used to simulate tick-by-tick data in the historical data run. The equivalent in real time would be running the strategy OnEachTick and that's it, OnBarUpdate will be called on every incoming tick.
