I can tell you the way I developed on NT8.
- include a simple equity curve management in the strategy (*)
- duplicate the strategy, one running on the real account one on a Sim account
(*) The strategy can either run as MASTER or SLAVE by a mode selection parameter. The MASTER runs on the sim account continuously, providing a Boolean feedback to the SLAVE one, depending on the last trade.
if last_trade_GAIN > 0
tell ENABLE to the SLAVE strategy
else
tell DISABLE to the SLAVE strategy
In NT you can use a global variable or a read/write file. I decided for the second, using file information for developing and debug.
You must use Global Variables to communicate between your SIM and REAL accounts.
You can use the "PositionProfit()" variable to check if the recent trade was a profit or loss.
Use PosTradeEntryDateTime(vIX,0) to get the entry date/time.
