## <summary>
## Multi-Symbol Trading Strategy scripts are used for simultaneously trading a group of symbols from a single strategy instance. 
## Common use-cases include pair trading strategies, basket trading strategies and dynamic index strategies, all of which need to evaluate multiple symbols at the same time in order to make trading decisions.

    ## <summary>
    ## This function is used for accepting the script parameters and for initializing the script prior to all other function calls.
    ## Once the script is assigned to a Desktop, its parameter values can be specified by the user and can be selected for optimization.

    ## --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ## YOU MUST SET A PARAM TAG FOR EACH PARAMETER ACCEPTED BY THIS FUNCTION.
    ## ALL PARAM TAGS SHOULD BE SET IN THE 'OnInitialize' REGION, RIGHT ABOVE THE 'OnInitialize' FUNCTION.
    ## THE ORDER OF THE TAGS MUST MATCH THE ORDER OF THE ACTUAL PARAMETERS.

    ## REQUIRED ATTRIBUTES:
    ## (1) name: The exact parameter name.
    ## (2) type: The type of data to collect from the user: 
    ## Set to "Integer" when the data type is an integer.
    ## Set to "IntegerArray" when the data type is an integer list.
    ## Set to "DateTime" when the data type is is an integer representing a date/time.
    ## Set to "DateTimeArray" when the data type is an integer list representing a list of date/time.
    ## Set to "Boolean" when the data type is a boolean.
    ## Set to "BooleanArray" when the data type is a list of booleans.
    ## Set to "Double" when the data type is a number.
    ## Set to "DoubleArray" when the data type is a list of numbers.
    ## Set to "String" when the data type is a string.
    ## Set to "StringArray" when the data type is a list of strings.

    ## OPTIONAL ATTRIBUTES:
    ## (3) default: The default parameter value is only valid when the type is Integer, Boolean, Double, String or an API Type. 
    ## (4) min: The minimum parameter value is only valid when the type is Integer or Double.
    ## (5) max: The maximum parameter value is only valid when the type is Integer or Double.
