Question on New Criteria added to Simulation Settings

[nibor200]

Hey Chris,

Back in Dec you made some improvements to the Simulation Settings by adding Available Equity and some new Stop Criteria.

How would I label the columns in a simulation template to include those new elements so a modified Trade Simulation template will run in Edgerater Pro?

I've PercentageEquityPerTrade, PctEquityPerTrade, and EquityPerTrade with no luck.
Do I also need a column for "UseEquityPerTrade" True or False?

Thanks,
Ed S.

Hi Ed,

The latest update (13.0.0.63) has support for these columns. They should be named as follows:

Portfolio Rules:
UseOnlyAvailableEquity
UsePctEquityPerTrade
PctEquityPerTrade

Stops:
UseFirstUnprofitableOpenStop
UseFirstUnprofitableCloseStop
UseFirstProfitableOpenStop
UseFirstProfitableCloseStop

To use the PctEquityPerTrade you need to set UsePctEquityPerTrade to TRUE and also provide a value for PctEquityPerTrade.

Chris.
