SQ4 default building block parameters

Hi Mark,



Unless I am misunderstanding how the parameters on building blocks work, the default values are usually nonsense.


For example RSI appears by default to use 1 to 10000 as the period range?  Most of the building block default are set like this.


Please review each building block and give each one a sensible default set of parameters.  For example, 5 as a minimum and 200 as the maximum period for RSI makes much more sense than 1 to 10000.


Thanks,


Mike

Another example, Trailing Activation is randomly selected with 1 to 9999999 pips, which is nonsense.

we are working on improving this, but regarding the indicator parameters - it is actually configured better by default.

Min and Max values specify only the most extreme boundaries.


By default you don't specify boundaries like this for every block, but keep Min and Max set to Period, and you can set minimum and maximum of all indicators periods globally in What to build setting -> Additional build config.

There you can specify min and max period for all the indicators, unless you configure any of them separately.


It will be described better in the documentation and also in the UI, so that it is more understandable.
