CODE:
         string name = this.IsMetaStrategyComponent ? this.MSC.QualifiedStrategyName : Backtester.Strategy.QualifiedName;
         Strategy stgy = StrategyFactory.Instance.Find(name);
         if (stgy != null)
         {
            WriteToDebugLog("Name: " + stgy.Name);
            WriteToDebugLog("Folder: " + stgy.FolderName);
            WriteToDebugLog($"Path: {stgy.FileName}");
         }

Thanks Cone.

The above code seems not working when a strategy is run as a substrategy in a metastrategy. There's null pointer thrown somewhere. Is that possible to make it work in both cases?

Seems i could get the qualified name with the following code then get folder

CODE:

if (_strategy.IsMetaStrategyComponent)
{
    qualifiedName = _strategy.MSC?.QualifiedStrategyName;
}
else
{
    qualifiedName = _strategy.Backtester.Strategy.QualifiedName;
}
