TradeStation Strategies

At the simplest level, strategies take an idea and execute it in the market. Or, if backtesting, a strategy shows approximately how an idea would have executed in the market in the past.

When you see buys and sells on a TradeStation chart, a strategy put them there.

Moving beyond the elementary, a professionally coded strategy should do more than merely buy and sell.

If you are writing a strategy, you should strive for code that is:

	logically organized and clearly written
	well explained with copious and clear comments
	flexible and expandable
	optimizable
	talkative in explaining what it is doing and why
	generous in reporting its results

and if you are buying a strategy, that's what you should expect for your money!
