Change your BloodHound system while it runs on a chart, and see the result straight away.
Once BloodHound is on a chart, you can still change its template. Click the BloodHound button at the top of the chart, next to the drop-down, to open the BloodHound window. Opened this way, BloodHound runs in real-time mode. That’s different from editing the template from NinjaTrader’s Indicators window (setup mode), where BloodHound may not be running yet, because NinjaTrader hasn’t added it to the chart.
What you can do in real-time mode
Almost everything. Change, add or remove solvers, and change Logic Templates and their nodes freely: the chart updates as you go, even in a live market with ticks arriving. The exceptions:
- adding timeframes (Charts), and
- loading a template from a file. You can still save it.
Choosing the Logic Template
The drop-down at the top of the chart picks the active Logic Template. A template can hold many Logic Templates; the active one decides BloodHound’s output and the long and short signals painted on the chart.
BloodHound keeps calculating every Logic Template you’ve selected before, in the background, so switching between them is instant and other tools reading a specific Logic Template still get their values. In BlackBird and Raven every Logic Template is calculated. For live trading, delete the Logic Templates you don’t need, so they don’t slow things down. See Memory and CPU.
