Piersh, I am still stumbling terribly with Ninja and only now, after a year, preparing to get into some simple strategy testing because I find/found the interface so difficult to learn and also I tend not to use mechanical strategies for short term trading anyway. But in this case I feel like a real dunce. I cannot open it up at all.

I backed up the default cs. I imported the two other cs's but not the info.xml.

I F5'd an indicator.

I closed it down and opened it again.

I can see PHOptimizer in the list of strategies in the Strat Analysis page.

Then I am stumped. If I pick an instrument to optimize, PH is not in the list. I can't see any other menus.

Am I supposed to use the PH strategy embedded in other ones? Or am I supposed to see it in the drop-down menu but for some reason it isn't there. Or am I supposed to have done something else which I missed somewhere.

Sorry for the trouble, but now I want to see dis thang!

It's the drop down under optimizer, not strategy selection but below that, under 'net profit' or whatever you optimize against.

Ah! Thanks. I thought I must be doing something dumb. Didn't understand the lingo in the instructions.

Now that picture with the HMA, EMA, Zerolag etc. etc., that was somebody else's strategy, not part of the optimizer per se, right?

yeah, that half of the options dialog is only available when your strategy has Enum or bool-valued parameters. see this post for more details:

no, unfortunately i didn't get on the NT7 beta

if you want to bug them to let me in, i'd be more than happy to make sure it runs, or fix it if it doesn't

Their is already a native GO in NT7, but your GO looks really better, so it's a good idea to port it .

Yes , Piersh's one is much more sophisticated....

It would be nice that it did not stop at every stock when you test a list though .....
