New Feature Highlight
New functionality:
-
Persistent “Variables” feature - allows creation of custom trade conditions that persist. Persistence begins and ends with separate signals user creates. These variables can be used inside of main trade signals, allowing implementation of complex multi-layered trade logic.
-
New, currently still experimental features:
-
Sierra Chart Control - allows single-click Sierra Chart replay and creation of custom replay profiles for individual trade and chart section testing. This alone will save you hours, days, and weeks of clicking.
-
Log and Monitor - opens a new external window to help visualize all of the trade condition variables. This helps track simple to most complex signals internal bits for users to have a better understanding of why strategy did or did not enter/exit/etc.
-
Force Activation - Shortcuts having to “Stop” replays while making changes. Less clicks
-
Configurations Manager - makes it easier to create and manage configs and config backups. Massively improved compared to prior versions!
-
Layout Configuration. Allows you to open and place your Octopi windows where you prefer them, and “Set” them in place. Re-open and position all by clicking “Apply”
-
Tagging functionality. Users can now organize configuration files using the tag system. Good visual filter to save your eyes and brain from searching through multiple lines of stuff.
-
Variables have been renamed to Aliases - same functionality as before.
-
ATBB Replay Time Sampling added under Trade Policies - no longer need to add anything under Signals to allow for ATBB replays, just check this box.
- Sierra Chart control buttons to Reset OP controller and end crashed SC process if it didn’t fully close out.
