Description

One good use-case is - for Walk-Forward, currently there is no way of processing / handling the data optained for a walk-forward optimization. The API should make available saving all that data to disk for further external processing.
The API should be accessible from Signal code and should be working both on past / historic data and also as a "live-running" strategy (switching a strategy to live data should not impair triggering backtests from the API).

  1. Saving functionality is planned for MultiCharts 11.
  2. Access to the API should be available later, but only in MultiCharts .NET.
