hallo all, sometime I got the "Exception error" on my Portfolio Backtester.
should be possible to have in the error windows the name of the stocks that cause the problem?
this because if you have a big list of stocks is very complicated understand which one have problem and discard it.
there is one wiki with the explanation of this error?

Re: EXCEPTION Error
hallo, thank you, this is a good method when you have single chart, even if when you have very long code is complex to find the bad variable.
in any case this does not work for portfolio, is not possible for you to state which is the stock with error that i can simply delete from portfolio?

Re: EXCEPTION Error
waldem, if there is no zero division protection in the code then the error can appear both in MultiCharts and Portfolio Backtester. Please follow the instructions from the article I have provided above to troubleshoot your code and avoid getting the floating point message.
I will forward your suggestion regarding showing the instrument name that generated the error to our management.

Re: EXCEPTION Error
Just open your code in the PowerLanguage Editor,hallo, thank you, this is a good method when you have single chart, even if when you have very long code is complex to find the bad variable.
in any case this does not work for portfolio, is not possible for you to state which is the stock with error that i can simply delete from portfolio?
then press Control-F,
the "Find" window will pop up.
Type a 'slash' in the search box. (ie the division sign "/" )
Go through each and every division you have in your code and you will soon find the problem.
ps. Don't let the error message intimidate you; it is not an insurmountable task... it won't take a lot of time to debug, because you can't have that many divisions in one code, even if you have tens of thousands of lines.
