I found that Ninjatrader 8 gives certain degree of freedom to create custom projects. I found myself somewhat limited when trying implement things outside the scope of what ninjatrader customer service considers supported. Was wondering if anyone has been able to implement the following:
1- instantiate and run a strategy backtest from an addon, then return a series of systemPerformance statistics.
I was able to implement a new strategy from inside another strategy, but when I write the same code on an addon, it does not trigger any trades.
2- has anyone been able to limit the amount of cores that an optimizer runs on???
I was able to implement my custom code inside the optimizer class, and it performs as expected. but this way it uses all the cores on my cpu, and I only need to run my optimizer for long periods of time( weeks at a time), on 1 core( 3 the most), otherwise I am using 12 times the amount of resources I need, and my pc cannot do anything else for that time.
