Global Settings are used to setup and configure basic strategy settings. It’s important to understand that Global Strategies overwrite whatever is set inside the strategy itself. Global Strategy settings are the most simple way to change basic settings and behaviors as well as setup the basic machina settings such as allowed trading pairs and buy amounts.
