Subject : RE: Trade Plan Refresh?

If I happen to update a TP under Edit->Trade Plan, it won't update any strategy which uses this TP as well.


That's by design. With the exception of OL code, strategies are supposed to be self contained, so that if you share a strategy you don't also have to share a trade plan. And as such, you are able to make a change to a strategy's trade plan separate from the global template.

If I want to use the very same updated TP in all of them


I see your argument why this can be useful, but the way it is now is also useful. Imagine having 10 strategies using the same trade plan, but each has a different parameter or setting. Then you change the trade plan template, it updates all 10 strategies to now be the same. Even worse - you wouldn't even know what strategies changed.

Of course, there could be added UI telling you which strategies would change, warnings, etc, & the trade plan code is very complicated, so a change like this could potentially lead to other issues.


If I want to use the latest TP update in the strategy, I have to first deselect it and then reselect it under Trade Plan Source.


You don't have to click a different trade plan. Just click the dropdown once & select the same trade plan.
