What is “Prints around a trade” in Storage, and how do I tell that the tape is still loading?

Question

Accepted Answer

For tuning, the terminal keeps the trade tape around your trades. “Prints around a trade” is how much tape to keep before the entry and after the exit: the more, the more precisely the tuner sees the detection and the late exits. “Long trade from” is the duration from which the tape is kept only around the entry and the exit, while the middle is closed with candles. Missing tape loads by itself at startup. While it runs, the “Storage” page shows the status “Loading tape — trades left: N”, and “Entry/Exit” shows the line “trades: N/M”. No need to save anything.
