Re: [amibroker] I need help for equity line...

My method for testing a system for the first time 
is to set the Initial Equity to a very large number in the settings, then use 
PositionSize = XXX in the AFL. Then, every trade uses XXX dollars for its 
position size. This gives accurate results for av win / av loss and winning 
trade percentage, but the overall profit is meaningless.
 
When I have optimized or tweaked the system to get 
good expectancy, then I set realistic equity and position sizing to evaluate 
equity performance and overall profit, etc.
