Hi,

I'm writing a strategy that runs on more than one currency. How can I enable the user to choose more than one instrument in the configuration dialogue?

I know you can do this:

    @Configurable("Instrument")
    public Instrument selectedInstrument = Instrument.EURUSD;

I tried the following without success (nothing shown on the config box):

  @Configurable("Instruments")
  public Instrument[] selectedInstruments;

I'd like to loop over the instruments later like that:

public void onBar(Instrument instrument, Period period, IBar askBar, IBar bidBar) throws JFException {
  for(int a = 0; a < this.selectedInstruments.length; a++) {
    if (!instrument.equals(this.selectedInstruments[a]) || !period.equals(this.selectedPeriod)) return;
      // Do something!
    }
  }
}

Any clues?


Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Roberto

Consider the following approach:

@Configurable("Instrument1")
public Instrument instrument1 = Instrument.EURUSD;
@Configurable("Instrument2")
public Instrument instrument2; 
@Configurable("Instrument3")
public Instrument instrument3;
