Anthony,
Thanks but check my image and tell me how
you have % showing and I do not.
Ken
Ah, I have not installed the maintenance
upgrades, and am running 4.50.5. If that is it, that is pretty recent and
means all of the folks who like and use the %/bar have only recently been using
it. Otherwise…..???????

Re: Backtesting and Backtesters
HB: I looked at that and just looked
again. They sure do not look like percentages to me (47.79, 197,51,-67,
etc) (this from a backtest I just clicked on). Plus, the thing that says
“Individual Backtest”, when you click this you get the OLD
backtester running but with NEW column outputs?? Is that correct? I
was thinking the third choice, which says “Old (v4.4) Backtester”
was the “REAL OLD” backtester. Why do you guys think the
third column from the end is in percent? Or perhaps there is a preference
I do not know about that makes it be in percent and I have mine in default
$/bar. Comment?
Ken

Ken,
Profit/bar in the new backtester is in $ amounts.
Profit/bar in the old backtester is in % and is the 3rd
to last column in the results table (before MAE/MFE).

<font size=2
face="Courier New">Mark: I just got around

continue to use the OLD (v4.4) backtester.
As I can not "see" this statistic
anywhere, can you lead me by the hand
to show me where you get this statistic
(profit/bar in %) and what
settings you make to ensure it appears.
I see a "Profit/bar" column in the new
backtester output but it does not
seem to be in percent.
What am I missing, please.

Trade list for old backtester also gives
profit/bar in % which the new
backtester does not. I use this a lot so
it's one of the main reasons
I use it.
