The BO14, BO12, B008 are my problem - they are hardcoded. When I run more than one copy of the system, I cant tell from the STCC which system generated the trade. Ideally, I would like to use an input to build the signal name string.
Eg. I run the same system on both the Simex and Osaka Nikkei futures and on 5 minute bars and 3 minute bars, and with slightly different parameters. I cant tell from STCC which system generated the order. (I can go to each system and figure it out, but I am looking for a better way).
I am reluctant to save the same system under several different names. This would solve my problem, but would make changes cumbersome.
Thanks

Why not start with giving it a less general name, e.g.
Buy ("BO14") at close;
Buy ("BO12") at close;
Buy ("BO08") at close;
in the accoring systems.......or so and you dont have a VARIABLE name but
BETTER control
