Adding "Stoploss disabled" to the parameter distribution for apply.paramset

Hi,


Is it possible to add a "disabled" option to the parameter distribution (for stoploss, stoptrailing, takeprofit)? So the typical parameter distribution contains a vector of integers, but how would I go about adding the "disabled stoploss" configuration to the parameter distribution? Adding "0" to the parameter distribution did not disable stoploss/takeprofit but made them execute immediately when there is a price change.


Thanks,


Atakan Okan

So they aren't really designed for enabling or disabling rules.  That
said, in theory you can change any element of the specification.

Something like this might work (untested, I have a meeting to run to),
please report back:

assume your rule is labeled 'my.stop'


add.distribution( strategy=strategy.st
                , paramset.label='stop.onoff'
                , component.type='exit'
                , component.label='my.stop'
                , variable = list(enabled = c(TRUE,FALSE))
                , label = 'onoff.test'
                )


Please let us know, and if this doesn't work, maybe create a really
minimal example and we'll look more closely.

Regards,

Brian
