Changing the Status of a Strategy

TradeStation enables you to temporarily disable a strategy. This is referred to as turning off the status of the strategy. This technique is useful when you don't want to delete the strategy completely but don't want it to calculate or display on your chart at the current time. You may also want to turn a strategy back on if it is currently off. You can turn it back on so the strategy continues to perform its calculations.

  1. From the Menu bar, click Format > Strategies. The Format Analysis Techniques & Strategies dialog is displayed. 
  2. Select the strategy you want to change the status of.
  3. Click Status to toggle the strategy status from On to Off and Off to On.
  4. Click OK when finished.
