Trigger On Event
The trigger-on event defines the set of rules that need to be met for the corresponding strategy to be triggered on. A strategy that is triggered may use all the capital available to the trading system, and prevents other strategies in the system from triggering.
Content
In conceptual terms, the trigger-on event is the mechanism you use to define the specific situations in which you would consider trading with the corresponding strategy. Think of the trigger-on event as the definition of the scenario in which the trading idea behind the strategy should be carefully considered.
Once a strategy is triggered-on, the system starts evaluating the take position event. In conceptual terms, it means that the system has been alerted that the trading idea behind the corresponding trading strategy has produced a signal and that it should carefully monitor the market for the opportunity to take a position.
