Trading styles are named collections of settings that you use to indicate how you like to trade. Here is an overview of the types of values they include.

·      Broker Settings

These values indicate the settings defined by your broker for this type of trading.

·      Position Types and Sizing

These values indicate the amount money you have at risk, as well as whether you want to trade long, short, or both.

·      Entry/Exit Strategy Settings

These values indicate any limits or stops you use as part of your trading.

·      Signal Optimization Values

These values indicate the factors to consider when evaluating optimized entry/exit signals. In addition to optimizing the overall profit, statistics such as the volatility, length, and frequency can be optimized.

·      Analysis Fields

These settings allow you to specify alternate fields to use for calculating values such as the price shares are trading at.
