Hi,

The current MC version can't do that. We are going to work on this feature in the nearest 3 months.

Best regards.

Take this four steps to plot the equity curve of your trading system with Multichart:

1. Download and copy Robert J. Linders PushPop.dll in the Multichart program directory

http://traders2traders.com/code&overviews/pushpop.htm

2. Add this to the end of your signal code:

Code: Select all

{Push Profit Results to indicator**********************************}

Inputs: ReferenceNr(01);

DefineDLLFunc: "PUSHPOP.DLL", VOID, "PUSH", LONG, LONG, LONG, DOUBLE;
DefineDLLFunc: "PUSHPOP.DLL", VOID, "PUSHCLEAN", LONG;

If currentbar=1 then PushClean(ReferenceNr);

PUSH(ReferenceNr, DATE, TIME, NetProfit);
3. Design a new indicator “Plot Equity Curve” like this

Code: Select all

{POP Equity Curve Results to indicator*****************************}

Inputs: System1(01);
{Numbers and names at your discretion here, just make sure to match the RefNumbers you've chosen for the "PUSH" values in your systems}


DefineDLLFunc: "PUSHPOP.DLL", DOUBLE, "POPLAST", LONG, LONG, LONG;
DefineDLLFunc: "PUSHPOP.DLL", DOUBLE, "POP", LONG, LONG, LONG;

Vars: InitCapital(100000), EQT(0);

EQT=POPLAST(System1,DATE,TIME)+InitCapital;

Plot1(EQT,"Net Equity",Yellow,Default,1);
4. Create a new chart as follows
- Data1: Market you want to trade, in this case Bund Future.
- Data2: Again Bund Future, hide display.
- insert Indikator “Plot Equity Curve” Subchart 2

Result is shown in BNEqt01 to compare with BNEqt02 from the strategy performance report.

Cheers

Helmut

I imported the TS "strategy Equity" indicator, works great. No dll needed.
