Export and Import Strategies
The Strategy Builder lets you export strategies as JSON and import them back. This is useful for backing up your work, sharing strategies with others, or loading a strategy on a different account.
Export a strategy
- Open the strategy in the Strategy Builder.
- Click the Export button in the floating toolbar (the download icon).
- The strategy JSON is copied to your clipboard automatically.
- Paste it wherever you want to store it: a text file, a message, a shared document.
Export captures the full strategy: all node configurations, connections, and settings. It does not include deployed state or historical execution data.
Import a strategy
- Copy a strategy JSON to your clipboard from a previous export or from someone sharing one with you.
- Open the Strategy Builder.
- Click the Import button in the floating toolbar (the upload icon).
- The builder reads your clipboard and loads the strategy onto the canvas.
If the JSON is invalid or in an incompatible format, an error message appears and nothing is loaded. The current canvas is not affected.
What an export contains
Included:
- All node types and their configurations (market, order type, size, leverage, conditions, stop loss, take profit, and so on)
- All connections between nodes
- Node positions on the canvas
Not included:
- Deployment state
- Execution history
- Account or wallet information
Sharing strategies
Export is the standard way to share strategies. Paste the JSON into a message or document, and the recipient imports it directly into their Strategy Builder. When imported, it opens as an undeployed draft they can review, modify, and deploy from their own account.
An imported strategy carries someone else’s trade logic, and once you deploy it, it trades live from your account. Open every Indicator and Order, confirm the conditions and sizes are what you want, and backtest before deploying.
Tips
- Export before making significant changes so you have a backup to fall back on.
- Imported strategies are treated as new, unsaved drafts. Give the strategy a name and save before deploying.
Oracles, the live data sources a running strategy reads from, are not part of the export. They are registered automatically when the recipient deploys, so nothing needs configuring by hand.
