Hi, in cases where you have multiple signals in a strategy, is there another way to isolate the individual signal responsible for a particular entry other than toggling them on/off in multiple backtests? I'm referring particularly to Portfolio Trader.
Edit: raising the bar here for dumb questions--I can use a chart. But is it possible to have Portfolio Trader show the entry signal on a trade like it shows the exit signals?
Thanks

Hello darob,
You can add an input to the script that will control code execution, if that is easier than toggling the signal itself.
Please clarify your second question as I am not sure I get what you need exactly.

Re: Isolating a strategy's component signals
Hi Henry, when checking the list of trades executed in a Portfolio Trader backtest, the exit signal is stated specifically in each trade but the entries are just "Buy" or "SellShort". Is it possible to have the specific entry signals stated too?
Thanks

Hello darob,
You can name the orders the way you need it in the code.
