I have 3 automated trading strategies that I run each day on the chart. All 3 are intraday strategies that have "Exit on session close" set to true. I have to re-enable the strategies each morning before market open, input their settings and configure the data series for each. I was wondering if there was a way to automate this process as well. That got me thinking...
Is it possible to create an indicator that will run on the chart 24/7, assuming NT is open and the PC is on, and do the following:
1) Automatically enable the same 3 strategies each morning at a specific time, say 8:30 am EST.
2) Apply the relevant settings to each strategy, either by loading each strategy template or some other way.
3) Pull up a chart window with each strategy chart loaded in a separate tab so that I can visually confirm correct behavior.
4) Turn the strategies off at a set time each day, say end of equities RTH at 4pm EST.
5) Repeat
Is my thinking on the right track here? Love the ability to create an have automated strategies, but I want to reduce the amount of configuring and interference I have to do as much as possible. Would like to just be an overseer who checks in periodically to make sure my strategies haven't gone rogue and I need to mortgage the house.
Any thoughts on this approach would be helpful, thank you.
