[amibroker] Plotting Equities from the AA

The joy lasted about 
an hour :-( don't know what i changed but it doesn't work anymore - Tomasz,if 
you are reading this... how do I turn back on the marvelous feature? I am sure 
it worked because i even played with changing the colors and removing some 
equity lines...just because I didn't believe what I saw at 
first.
Did my program go into 
warp mode and adopt features yet to be developed?
Anybody else worked 
with plotting equities from the AA?
Take 
care,

Hello,I only just discovered (I am a bit slow nowand 
then) that I can plot multiple Equity() curves from the AA backtester. Whata 
marvelous feature!!!This is great for debugging complicated systems, I 
used to shuffle back between AA and Indicator Windows while there is no need for 
that. If you have a system where you start with a simple basic trading system 
that you enhance with various stops, SARs, MA signal Gating, ADX(), etc. you can 
simply insert Plot(Equity(),"Equity",1,1); ,as many times as 
you like, after each of those enhancements. This will plot the equity 
(overlaying many traces) for each stage if you click the Equity button. It shows 
you exactly how each enhancement effects your equity.Perhaps you all 
knew about this while I didn't :-( this is a great timesaver. If now only we 
could plot the equity with a log scale...I am sure TC is working on that 
too...Take care,Herman.
