Hi everyone,
I have a question about using custom indicators in Wealth-Lab 8
.
Is it possible to create indicators externally in Excel/CSV and then import them into Wealth-Lab for backtesting and strategy building?
I would like to know:
Best way to import custom indicator data
If imported columns can be used in Building Blocks/strategies
If they work correctly with optimization and portfolio backtests
Whether it is better to recreate the indicator directly inside Wealth-Lab
Any recommendations or examples would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

If you're creating the indicator using BarHistory data, and you're using the indicator in more than one script, then for sure it's best to create a custom indicator. Then it's available to use in Block Strategies or just a 1-liner in a C# script.
If the data is external and can't be created in WealthLab, then you can put it in a file and connect it using an ASCII DataSet. It's treated as symbol data, but you can use the SymbolInd indicator to use its values like an indicator.
