Herman,
Could you explain this 
again.  It is not clear just what I am supposed to do to make this 
work. 
 
Thanks,

Plotting Equities from the AA
Hello,I only just discovered (I am a bit slow now and 
then) that I can plot multiple Equity() curves from the AA backtester. What a 
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. Your
