Signal-Properties in Portfolio Backtester?

Posted: Jul 12 2011

Hello,

in Multicharts it is possible to change some setting in the properties section for pyramiding (handling of multiple signals per direction within one position) or intra-bar resolution.

Where can I set this up in Portfolio Backtester?

Thanks a lot.

Joerg,

Won't checking the multiple positions option in Strategy Properties serve your purpose?

Khalid,

thanks for your fast answer. That is exactely the setting I mean and in addition I also would like to set up the "backtesting precision" in the backtesting tab of this window.

To donĀ“t use this setting would not solve my problem: Especially the "Position Limit" Setting is important for the implementation of my strategy. Is there a change for it?

Thanks a lot.

Joerg,

You can set Position limits for your strategy in Portfolio Backetster the following way: right click on the strategy name --> Show Properties. As for bar magnifier, it is not available in Portfolio Backetster.
