passing Inputs between strategy and indicators fail

Ram · Postby **Ram** » 04 Jan 2015

Hi All,

I have a strategy based on an indicator which is based on a different indicator, all the three (1 strategy and 2 indicators) have the same input interface:

Code: Select all


<Input()> Public Property Big_Length 	As Integer

<Input()> Public Property Small_Length As Integer

		

Public Sub New(ByVal _ctx As Object)

MyBase.New(_ctx)

Me.Big_Length = 300

Me.Small_Length = 20

End Sub

I need both of the indicators to inherit the values set in the strategy inputs, so when loading the first indicator from the strategy i use this:

Code: Select all


Private MyInd  As PowerLanguage.Indicator.Main_Tick_V4

MyInd = AddIndicator("Main_Tick_V4")

MyInd.Big_Length = Me.Big_Length

MyInd.Small_Length = Me.Small_Length

and then pass the same input values to the third indicator in the same way..

My problem is when i tried to optimize my results by setting the range of Me.Small_Length to 10 ~ 30 i got the same profit for every input... so I've added printouts for each indicator to see what is the input value it receives and indeed it looks like it doesn't inherit the values set by its parent creator and it keeps on using the default values..

Any thoughts will be highly appreciated!!

Thank you all and wish you a great year with lots of profits!
R.

Hello Ram,

Are you able to replicate this behavior using prebuilt studies?
If you can do that - please send us (support@multicharts.com) the following information for further analysis:
- workspace you are using;
- in QuoteManager select the symbols you are using, make a right click on it->Export data->Export instrument (without data). Send us the QMD export file for analysis;
- in PowerLanguage .NET editor->File->Export->export the studies you are using for replicating this behavior; send us the pln file;
- instructions for replicating the error.
