Elegan indicators' grid parameters copy into a strategy

[giogio1]

I am looking for an elegant way to replicate and indicators' grid parameters into its calliing strategy.
I do have an indicator with its own grid parameters. This indicator generates a signal. This indicator is also added to a strategy that 'executes' the signal. So I copy those same grid parameters in the strategy and I am assuring that the added indicator will update its parameter to reflect those of the strategy.
In other words I replicate the grid parameters code on both the indicator and the strategy.
I wander if there is a way to avoid this same duplication so I can add and indicator to a strategy and get the strategy to acquire those same indicator's parameter into its own grid. I think this would make the code more elegant and better structured.
I hope my question is clear.

Ideally you don't have to copy any of the code, except the properties from your indicator to the strategy. What you can do is code the indicator to expose all the values that you need and then in the strategy declare a variable that "will be your custom indicator:"

private MyIndicatorName indEntry; // Change MyIndicatorName to the name of your indicator

Then in DataLoaded:

indEntry = MyIndicatorName(Property01, Property02); // Update Property01, Property02, etc. with what your indicator calls for

Then in OnBarUpdate, you can reference what is exposed in the indicator:

double plot0Value = indEntry.PlotName[0]; // Grab the information you need from your strategy

All the above is very generic, but hopefully you get the idea. If it's not working for you, if you post the code, we can probably get it to work relatively quickly.

Yes. Thank you Jack. This is what I also do. I wanted a confirmation that I need to copy the properties. Best. G
