Using Character-Type Values for Strategy Parameters

Article vn.py community
Read the original

Summary

The discussion answers whether a trading strategy parameter can use a character or string value. One community member replies that it can, indicating that strategy parameters need not be limited to numeric types. This may be useful when a strategy accepts a text setting, such as a symbol or named mode, though the thread does not give an example or explain how to declare, validate, or use such a parameter.

The document provides no strategy, code, testing evidence, or details about platform-specific behavior. Its guidance is therefore limited to a brief affirmative answer; traders should consult the relevant framework’s documentation for the supported parameter types and configuration rules.

Key ideas

  • Strategy parameters can use character or string values, according to the brief reply.
  • The discussion gives no implementation example or platform-specific details.
  • The answer does not explain validation or how a strategy consumes text parameters.
