Dear Tomasz
 
Well I like the following feature (in the desktop 
version):
 
-A window where you can easily find the 
systems/commentary classified in folders and sorted by name or date 
etc.
-The ChartScript window, the equivalent ofthe AB 
main window, have some TAB where you can very easily evaluate a TS : The first 
one show the performance, the second the list of the trades, then one for the 
alerts, one for the text of the TS, one for optimisation (I hope that you will 
implement it in AB soon), an other one called MonteCarlo (I guess it is to make 
more complex optimisation using the Monte Carlo method), the last one is called 
Analysis Var but I don't know what it is.
 
They have also

Hello Tomasz
 
Yes, there is some good ideas to use in terms 
of agronomy (windows design and parameters settings).

Hi,
 
WealthLab is nice. I am curious how 
long will they be free.
I found some interesting ideas 
there...

Tomasz:
 
How about entry to lowest trough = trade 
drawdown
 
Did you notice the script functions listed on 
the Wealth-Lab site?  Is that where AB is 
headed?

Hello,
 
Thank you for the 
information.
BTW, here is a definition of Max. 
Intraday drawdown from wealthlab:

"Max IntraDay Drawdown
This value represents the greatest peak to trough 
distance in your equity curve.  Beware of Systems that have a 
high Drawdown value."
This is exactly what I meant in my previous e-mail: 
"greatest peak to trough distance".
Now: how should we call entry to lowest trough 
distance ( a drawdown measure already present in AmiBroker) 
??

Tomasz:
 
Since you will have maximum drawdown, I 
suggest including Risk-Adjusted Return (RAR).  This is a 
standard system evaluation metric that divides a risk measurement by 
the annualized rate of return.  You could use maximum drawdown 
as the risk measurement, but other measures (volatility, standard 
deviation, etc.) would also work.
 
The following link lists the system 
evaluation parameters used by Wealth-Lab:

additional back-testing statistics would you like to see in 
AmiBroker?Please give me your suggestions with the 
description.For version 3.64 already included 
are:- Annual system percentage profit- Annual B&H 
percentage profit- Maximum drawback calculated from 
maximum equity value  to the minimum equity value 
  (BTW: How to name this one? I have no idea)  
(note this is different from current max. drawback calculation 
which    computes max. equity dip from the 
trade entry)- Bars out of marketI have got already 
some of your earlier suggestionsbut anyone has something 
more?Best regards,Tomasz
