Clicking the "strategies" button or menu to display Strategies - for the first time after starting NinjaTrader or compiling strategies - NinjaTrader 7 will pause and appear to hang and become non responsive as it iterates through the strategies and templates/strategy/default templates files
- This is expected behaviour for NT7 and is a feature of NinjaTrader 7 outside of our control and is related- only for NT7 default strategy templates
- This behaviour is not effected by templates which live in the subfolders of the NT7/templates/strategy folder
- Subsequent load times do not hang and the list is displayed - until a restart or compile occurs
- This is normal behaviour and is slower or quicker depending on your cpu,hard drive speed and the number of strategies and templates you have
- This behaviour is controlled by NinjaTrader development architecture not MicroTrends or other vendors
Solutions:
A. Wait until NinjaTrader is ready
B. Speed up Strategy list load time by reducing the NT7 strategy templates default template
- MTNTF7: So for MTNTF7 there is a warning on the installer about this when installing strategies - and recommends not to install unless you want to the NT7 default templates - or install then delete what you dont want afterwards
- MTDS7 - install but delete what you don't want afterwards
- Other Strategies -the same approach applies
Speed up NinjaTrader on the first display of Strategy List
- Use Windows explorer and view the folder contents for "\Documents\Ninjatrader 7\templates\Strategy"
- select and delete the templates not in use
