How to make a single copy for a ProOrder trading strategy with hidden code?

s83 · 2020-07-01T17:57:06+00:00

Hello! If i want to share an itf file and make it locked for further copies, How do i do that? I tried to copy and choosed the third option (if you do not want the code to be modifiable and only want the code to be importable one time (useful if you want to send the code to another user but don’t want them to be able to redistribute the code).” Then i could insert the itf file and do some backtesting, but i could not activate it for autotrading. Then this error massage came up: code is not accessible.

You can’t. Code must remain readable for a trading strategy to be able to make real orders (live trading). But, you can make a not readable indicator that send the buy/sell/order management signals with a CALL.

Anybody … what is the purpose of the third option / Box 3 as above? Is it intended for scenario below? Code Author wants protect his code …
1. Author sends to user x code version with Box 3 ticked then user x can see what results they get from backtesting ONLY?
2. If user x wants to proceed / buy / whatever … Code Author then sends another version which contains the not readable indicator that send the buy/sell/order management signals with a CALL?
