Is it possible to define sub category or user define category for parameters

Is it possible to define sub category or user define category for parameters? The idea is to make parameter groupings so parameters are more readable.

Under the "Properties" section of the strategy, you will see all of your parameter properties.

You will see:

[Category("Parameters")]

above each property. Just change "Paramters" to the name of the category you wish to see.

I already tried that and all it does is make the parameter disappear.

I would double check your code. I just tested here and it works fine.

I have something like this.


[Description("")]
[Category("Test")]
public int MyInput0
{
get { return myInput0; }
set { myInput0 = Math.Max(1, value); }
}

It works in indicators but not on my strategy. Can you check that?

[NinjaTrader_Ray]

My apologies, this should not work for strategies. Our policy is to maintain inputs under the "Parameters" category.

Ah come on. That makes no sense at all. I have strategies with lots of inputs as im sure plenty others do.

Whats the reasoning behind this policy? To frustrate your users?

Besides its only a visual thing. People should have a choice.
