How is the correct way to setup base currency in portfolio trader for Binance

Postby strelow » 08 Apr 2021

Hello

I trying to setup the portfolio trade to do some backtests with binance Crypto but I notice even I put in properties cash per trade max for example $ 2000 when I run the backtests the simulation not make limitation of $2k I think because MC not make relation the value of crypto in $ . In my understand is missing some parameter in MC like base currency for crypto (USDT,USDC for example)

Is possible that.

Thanks

Hello strelow,

The are no built-in base crypto currencies in MultiCharts. However, if you select "None" in Strategy Properties > Base Currency, the second currency of the pair (for instance, USDT for BTCUSDT) will be used for profit and loss calculation of the strategy and for Strategy Performance Report.
