Interface Parameter Types

Variable (Name example)	Description	Type	Default value (description)	Component configuration (description)	Remarks
-	-	-	-	-	-
pNum	Description of parameter pNum	number	For example, set the default value to 100, which is a floating point type in C++ strategy.	Used to set the current parameter binding interface controls: component type, minimum value, maximum value, grouping, filter, etc.	Remarks on parameter pNum. The value of pNum is a numeric type.
pBool	Description of parameter pBool	true/false	Use a switch control to set a default value, without an optional control	The same as above	Remarks on parameter pBool. The value of pBool is of Boolean type.
pStr	Description of parameter pStr	string	For example, set the default value to: abc	The same as above	Remarks on parameter pStr, the value of pStr is a string type
pCombox	Description of parameter pCombox	selected	Set one or more options in the options	The same as above	Remarks on parameter pCombox. The value of pCombox may take many forms.
pSecretStr	Description of parameter pSecretStr	string	For example, set the default value to: xyz	The same as above	Remarks on parameter pSecretStr. The value of pSecretStr is a string type.

Interface parameters are set in the strategy parameter area below the code editing area on the strategy editing page. Please note:

1. In the default value option of parameter setting, the “optional” control is in the optional state by default. You can change the state of this control and set the current parameter as required. After setting the parameter default value as required, if the strategy does not set this parameter during backtesting/live trading, backtesting/live trading cannot be started.
2. The variable name of the interface parameter in the strategy code should not be set to the reserved word (keyword) of the current programming language.
3. When the mouse is placed on the control bound to the parameter in the backtest/live trading interface, the set parameter note information will be displayed.
4. The “description” of the parameter is the display name of the control to which the parameter is bound.
5. The “variable” of the parameter is as shown in the table above: pNum, pBool, pStr, pCombox, pSecretStr. It exists in the strategy code as a global variable, which means that the strategy parameters can be modified in the code.
6. For parameters of type “encrypted string” and “string”, the default value does not need to be quoted when input, and the input is processed as a string. The use of the “encrypted string” parameter is the same as that of the “string” parameter. The encrypted string will be sent encrypted and will not be transmitted in plain text.
7. If a parameter of type “string” is set to “optional”, when the parameter is not filled in the control to which the parameter is bound, the value of the parameter variable is empty string; Similarly, if it is a parameter of “Nmber”, the value of the parameter variable is null value. Similarly, if it is a parameter of “Selected box”, the value of the parameter variable is null value. Similarly, if it is a parameter of “Encrypted string”, the value of the parameter variable is null value.
8. For interface parameters of the selected type, for example, the variable name is pCombox. When “Support multiple selections” is not enabled in “Component Configuration”, the value of pCombox is the index of the currently selected option or the specific data (when data is bound to the option). If “Support multiple selections” is enabled, the value of pCombox is an array containing the indexes or specific data (when binding data to the options) of all currently selected options.
