The Editor is the first tab of the Strategy section of the application. You can get to it by clicking on a strategy in the Collection, the Portfolio or by going to Strategy from the main navigation bar.

The Editor's toolbar has controls for selecting historical data and buttons for exporting and sharing an Expert Advisor.

You choose which file to load by selecting the server name, symbol and period. When you change any of those parameters, EA Studio loads the corresponding file from the cloud.

EA Studio loads data files and re-calculates the strategy when you change the options.

• New Strategy - removes the strategy form the Editor and sets an empty one.
• Load next from the Collection - loads the next lower stats value strategy from the Collection.
• Import an Expert Advisor back - imports an Expert Advisor file in the Editor and shows the strategy. It works only for Expert Advisors exported from EA Studio.
• Remove current version - removes the current version of the strategy (with the exact major and minor Id number) from the Editor and the Collection.
• Remove other versions - removes the other versions of the strategy from the Editor and the Collection.
• Remove all versions - removes all versions of the strategy from the Editor and the Collection.

You add the current strategy to the Portfolio by clicking on that button. It is merged among the other strategies in the Portfolio's Content. The portfolio may refuse teh push, if the current strategy already exists there or it correlates with another strategy.
