Basic information connection GSB and Tstation

I have difficult to find basic information on how use GSB
1) If I want to import a trading system from GSB,after WF test, I had to go on Tradestation and paste it in TS Development Environment .
This is not enought I had to copy " all the ts scripts under file supplementary scripts" !
where I find it ? and where I had to copy it (also in TS D.E.)?
2) custom indicator
I had import in a new strategy of tradestation the file generated with GSB
but also here lacks some GSB script ...where I find it ^
A curiosity but this new strategy in TS how knows what is the indicator that must copy ? the indicator I want to trasfer in GSB must be put (only that indicator) in the graph of Tradestation
---
If its long to write can you post a video with ALL passages

Thanks in Advance
Guido

Both these questions are related to not having loaded the GSB TS code.

Thanks

now GSB's trading systems works in TSt

but Custom Indicator doesn't
If I verify in TSt the stategy "of my custom indicator 2MACD" give as error unknown identifier
What I haven't imported or connected ??

Thanks Gregorian now that I defined function in TSt the GSB see it and works the particularity is that I had to create both for StandAlone and Manager Probably I must use only Manager (+Worker) Is the second time that I receive the response that my "skills on TS are very low" ... probably but two problems I had are given to lacking of explication and to wrong use of nomencalture!! I would know if I wiil receive constructive response in future expecially when I have bought the System ?

Continuing:

"...steps missing I couldn't fill in right away, and nothing ever did appear in the GSB."....

Ok, an extreme dimwit-as-to-anything-to-do-with programming (but who has 15 years at least with usually more of the early Trade Station code), wonders:

"Is he suggesting I can take any Trade Station indicator and run the GSB with it the same as his "canned," default indicators? (Let's get one at all up and running, then wonder if we can put in 36 of our own like his default number of indic's.)

If so, come the questions:
1. Not just indicators, but ShowMe's, PaintBar's, maybe even Strategies in Trade Station, as they are, can run in the GSB?
2. The first dialogue upon clicking "Generate Export Script":
Under "Data" can I leave Primary and Secondary blank?
3. Same dialogue in 2 under Function/Name - have to give it the EXACT same name as my chosen TS indicator? Including spaces, caps, underscores? (These are the kinds of things I thnk of immediately - nowhere in sight on answers )
4. Under parameters when I add, this is all about going down the list of maybe every single input in the TS indicator and placing them as either static (fixed or dynamic)?
4a. Sequel to 4: you have to include EVERY input in your want-to TS indicator - only the inputs you want to optimize? All? You HAVE to include all static (fixed) inputs?
5. You have to then go down the list, (add your to-be optimized inputs in the GSB), from top to bottom exactly as the inputs are in the TS strategy? ...Because I'm not seeing in the set-parameters (GSB) dialogue box one can use the exact TS input name anywhere - iow's, you might get very confused with a lot of inputs you're setting parameters for if you can't see their names.(?)
6. After I fill in my parameters (which I think I can do as I optimized a lot in TS), I then hit
"Generate," and I do sure enough see something. I copy this script to a new TS STRATEGY, then put it in a, say a 30 min chart and compile. Nothing, and I mean nothing ever happened after this tho I waited long, then looked for anything under Custom Indicators and the manila "Indicators Data" in DropBox, also everywhere I could think to in Managers and Workers.
7. You maybe have to paste something additional into the Generated Script when you paste it into the chart for the export to GSB? My generated script looked awfully simp; nowhere near anything like the MACD onboard sample script you can view after the dialogue comes up and you hit hit "Generate Export Script" for this MACD.

More and more questions to be sure...a video, showing the detail of EVERY box fill-in, every step in taking a want-to-do-this-one indicator out of Traded Station, filling in every detail, getting it up and running in the GSB - this.

(Let's get one at all up and running, then wonder if we can put in 36 of our own like his default number of indic's.) YES YOU CAN, BUT IT WILL BE VERY RAM HUNGRY RIGHT NOW IM TESTING 23 OF CURT999(GSB USER NAME) ON 15 MIN CL, AND ITS USING 14 GB PER GSB. 30 MIN WILL USE LESS, BUT THATS WITH ONLY 1 DATA STREAM. If so, come the questions: 1. Not just indicators, but ShowMe's, PaintBar's, maybe even Strategies in Trade Station, as they are, can run in the GSB? MY REPLIES IN CAPS. NO, WE USE THE WORK INDICATOR, BUT TECHNICALLY ITS FUNCTIONS WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. ANY SHOWME ETC TYPICALLY HAS A FUNCTION, SO YOU NEED TO CONVERT TO FUNCTIONS. 2.

THE PATH IS IN THE TS CODE. LOOK THERE. YOU NEED TO ADD THE STRATEGY GSB GENERATED ON THE CHART WITH 500 MAXBARSBACK PERIOD 7. You maybe have to paste something additional into the Generated Script when you paste it into the chart for the export to GSB? My generated script looked awfully simp; nowhere near anything like the MACD onboard sample script you can view after the dialogue comes up and you hit hit "Generate Export Script" for this MACD. PASTE YOUR SCRIPT ON THE FORUM IF YOU ARE STILL STUCK More and more questions to be sure...a video, showing the detail of EVERY box fill-in, every step in taking a want-to-do-this-one indicator out of Traded Station, filling in every detail, getting it up and running in the GSB - this. I UPDATED THE DOC'S. IN TIME THERE WILL BE GSB COURSES BY THIRD PARTY'S THAT WILL BE DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WITH LOW KNOWLEDGE OF ALL ASPECTS OF TRADING.

"Basically, why are not the input names (of the TS indicator one is making into a GSB custom indicator)... names of the inputs asked, forced or allowed to be entered somewhere in and about the GSB parameter-setting that one does? Lots of inputs in the chosen indicator - and you get lost easily as to which parameter you're setting next."
can you show me a picture about what you mean? The GSB inputs are pretty easy to spot.
They are also visible under the parameters tab.
This may not have answered your question as well as you like. I'm not clear on how to grasp the issue.





So, one can assemble an army of indicators right out of TS into the "Custom Indicators" area? 37 (0-36) indicators e.g. like your default indicators currently? Will the "Force-all" and all the other options one sees in your default indicators be available the same for these custom's? And, all these custom indicators will churn together for the best optimized outcome like your default indicators? You dont want force all. Force will say GSB must use it. So you wouldnt normally force more indicators than the default 3 (or up to 5) However you can use force on custom indicators
If your indicators are any good, gsb will use it given enough processing time. I dont see the point of disabling any of the existing GSB indicators, unless you just want to make more bias to use your own indicators as a test.

You need to included all inputs of a custom indicator, even if you dont want it optimized.
This is more for ts than GSB, as ts code wont compile and give outputs for gsb.
