I have the old MC 5.5 and took strategy and data from it and imported to MC 8.0 but the same strategy on the same data doesn't generate trading signals at all. Data after import is
properly displayed at MC 8, its not a problem to attach e.g. indicator to it.
MC 5.5 generate trades with no problem for the same settings.
As a test a added the print command so see if signal is generated and yes it is (AAA is printed), but there is no trades on the chart and no trades in the strategy report
If Fisher Crosses under UBound Then Sell Short Next Bar on Open;
If Fisher Crosses under UBound Then print ("AAA"); <--- AAA is output after attaching the signal but no sell trade executed
Any idea what it can be ??

Re: Why no trades ??
Have you tried
"If Fisher Crosses BELOW UBound Then Sell Short Next Bar on Open;"
It might have changed since ver5.5
"If Fisher Crosses BELOW UBound Then Sell Short Next Bar on Open;"
It might have changed since ver5.5

Re: Why no trades ??
I will try it. However if "Crosses under" would not work than AAA in my test would not be printed
but it is. Beside the version difference that data was imported using "ASCII mapping". In working case of MC 5.5 it is fetched from global server. It should not matter as it is displayed and
indicator works well on it but back testing no. Seems to be major glitch !!!!

Hello krzysiaczek99,
Please attach the following information for analysis:
- The workspace you are using.
- The study export file (in Power Language editor->File->Export->export with dependent functions the study you are backtesting).

Re: Why no trades ?? [SOLVED]
Hi,
I found the reason of the problem. During import of the data Big Point Value must be changed to 1, I have it set for MC 5.5. When i changed it to 1 from 10000, strategy started to work.
Thanks anyway, Krzysztof
