Hi,
When I run PT for real-time auto-trading, I will open MC charts for checking signals.
However, I found the signals on MC chart and PT are different.
If there's solution for it?
Ex: If I can reload PT data automatically in specified period?
Or some better solution?
Thanks
Morgan

Hi Morgan,
MultiCharts and Portfolio Trader are different tools and they were designed for different goals. In most cases it is not relevant to compare the results.
If you still want to compare, you can achieve similar results, if you strictly follow the steps from this article.
Please note: the strategies in MC and PT should be in the same mode, i.e. backtesting in MC and backtesting in PT, forward testing in MC and forward testing in PT.
If one of your charts/Portfolio is auto trading and another is backtesting or forward testing, please read the following materials:
