Review Trades on Charts After Backtest

Postby jwitt98 » 18 Sep 2013

Is there a way to view the price charts of the trades after the backtest has run so that you can visually see the entry and exit points from the backtest?
It would be very helpful to be able to visually see exactly where your strategy is succeeding vs where it is failing.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not exactly sure that I understand what you want, but if you just want to show the trades and optimized values that you like, in the optimization list, 'double click" on the line that gave the optimization results you like and hit "save", to put those values into your system..
Then it will plot the buy and sell signals on the chart for those optimization values...

jwitt98, if you are referring to Portfolio Backtester then there is no way to see the trades on a chart.
You can backtest a signal in MultiCharts to see the orders on a chart. Just add a signal to your chart to see its performance.
