There are several TradeStation EasyLanguage keywords that can be used in studies (i.e. indicators, paintbar studies, or show me studies) to reveal information about a strategy applied to the same chart as the indicator, notably:
- I_ClosedEquity
- I_CurrentContracts
- I_AvgEntryPrice
- I_MarketPosition
- I_OpenEquity
- I_CurrentShares
Tutorial 83 demonstrates how, by using the I_ClosedEquity syntax it is possible to plot the average and maximum winning trades from a strategy, using an indicator.
The tutorial video explains that the keywords used to do this in an indicator are different from those that you would use to calculate the equivalent values in a strategy.
The video also explains how to calculate the average winning trade if you only want to consider trades with the last certain number of bars.
