As of Build 123, any code changes in a C# strategy are being auto-updated in Strategy Monitor.
Is this a deliberate shift or did it happen by mistake (e.g. as an unintended consequence of some other change in the app)?

@Glitch,
On further testing I can confirm that *only* the code is being auto-updated, not associated items such as Parameters. To refresh the latter one still has to right-click the strategy in SM and choose 'Refresh selected strategies...'. In other words, the auto-update of the code is incomplete.

Here's a screenshot of a pertinent point:
------------------------------
In summary, the Parameters are an integral part of the code and its vital they be updated at the same time as the code (not the parameter values, though, as the user may have set them as such for a specific reason). The parameters may also have been modified - added, deleted, rearranged - along with the code so not updating them is likely going to break the strategy.
TL;DR
Auto-update of strategy code in SM is convenient but has the potential to break the strategy as the parameter block is not included. Updating it at the same time as rest of the code is strongly advised..

Thanks, I’ve bookmarked this for investigation.
