Hi,

I am in the process of changing from Spreadsheets to ACSIL and I would like to know if there is any way to manually change data when the ACSIL program is running. The only way I see to do it is through the Menu Interaction (sc.MenuEventID != 0) but that is only useful to change a variable from "state A" to "state B" (i.e. from true to false and viceversa) or to get data, like price levels, directly from the chart like price levels.

I would like to change, for instance, variables that determine the number of contracts to be traded, time of the day to start or to stop trading, offset ticks for handling attached orders, etc. The only way I can do this now is to change the source code of the program and compile it again with the new values. Is there any way, through menu events (sc.MenuEventID != 0) to open a sub-window to get that data?
