Hello,
I have one month free trial and I seriously think about buying this software. The Portfolio Trader seems to be very professional solution. However, due to lack of documentation I am not able to evaluate whether it is suitable for what I need.
Here is my problem:
I am interested in your terminology for True Dynamic Portfolio Backtesting. "It means that portfolio equity and the available capital are dynamically avaluated to every intrument, on every bar, in order to determine the available amount to be invested."
I would need to define a portfolio money management signal which has this formula:
(Maximal%ofCapitalPerPosition x PortfolioEquity) / DailyATR100 x BigPointValue
To clarify this formula let's show you an example of E-mini Russell 2000:
PortfolioEquity evolves at time. It is portfolio open equity.
Let's say I have $2 150 000 today. I get a signal of my trading strategy for E-mini Rusell 2000. I am willing to risk 0,2% capital per position. It means:
Maximal%ofCapitalPerPosition = 0,2% = 0,002
DailyATR100 is an Average True Range of daily bars 100 bars back. For E-mini Russsell 2000 =
for example 17.29
BigPointValue = 100
So I get a signal today so I can open this number of contracts:
(0.002*2150000)/(17.29*100)=2,48 contracts. And I need to round it down, it means = 2 contracts.
If you can help me with this and it will be possible to apply it for live trading I guarantee you I am going to buy Multicharts immediately.
Thanks in advance for your help and response.

Exactly what I was trying to achieve and needed guidance.
Even though I am a full time license holder, I want to see MC share the code for this mm method.

Re: Portfolio Trader - Volatility Adjusted Position Sizing Model
I think it's straight forward in MC:
qty = floor(Portfolio_Equity*0.01/(avgtruerange(30)*bigpointvalue))
qty = floor(Portfolio_Equity*0.01/(avgtruerange(30)*bigpointvalue))
