No Parameters in Strategy Analyzer?

[Adanni]

I have created a strategy however the parameters are not showing up in the strategy analyzer. There is no tab that says parameters so I can't run any optimizations. The strategy will deploy, and I get values in trade performance.

Hello Adanni,

Thank you for your post.

Does your strategy have any public properties to optimize over?

For example, test the SampleMACross over strategy in the optimizer. Note that in the user interface it exposes the period for the fast and slow moving averages, which can be optimized because in the strategy they are created as public properties.

Yes. One of my conditions utilizes the MACD. When I tried to optimize the sampleMaCross a message says that it needs at least one parameter to optimize.

This is the code that I generated. Maybe I'm missing something?

Hello Adanni,

Conditions are not parameters. Public parameters are like the Fast and Slow inputs in the SampleMACrossover. I recommend you take a look at the actual code for the Fast and Slow parameters for the SampleMACrossover.

When I tried to optimize the sampleMaCross a message says that it needs at least one parameter to optimize.

You need to also provide a range for the optimization to test over by editing the Fast and Slow parameters, otherwise you will get that error. This video demonstrates:
