== Understanding Strategies ==
A strategy is a set of signals, applied to a chartsymbol. Signals systematically specify market entry or exit points according to a set of trading rules implemented in the signals' algorithms, and can be viewed as the basic building blocks of strategies.
Over 100 pre-built, customizable signals, covering the most popular trading concepts, are already included with the platform, and additional signals can be imported from a variety of sources.
Signals can be fully customized, or entirely new signals created, using PowerLanguage® scripting in '''PowerLanguage Editor'''.
A portfolio can contain several numerous strategies.
Each strategy can have its own list of symbols and signals. It is possible to apply different strategies to different sets of symbols.
Strategies can be constructed by simply combining a number of signals.
[[Signal_Settings|Signal settings ]] are specific to each particular signal, while [[Strategy_Properties|Strategy Properties]] regulate the actions of a group of signals as a whole.
