either.  Flat in the sense that the equity is not going up (sideways or
down).

Individual or Port backtest?

If you mean by "flat", cash, then doesn't Exposure tell you that? 20%
Exposure == 80% Flat.

  nice approach H. Now figure out a way to get at max flat bars (from fred's
  equity curve) output during an optimization run.

  These comment pertain to the "Equity Line" Built-in Indicator as used with
  Individual Backtests. In addition to plotting from indicator formula
windows
  you can plot indicators directly from the AA (very useful for debugging)
if
  you insert /* below the

      //--equity-plot-- do not remove this line

  line. Like so:

      //--equity-plot-- do not remove this line
      /*

  this in effect comments out the Built-in Equity plot. Doing this you can
add
  Plot() statements to your system's code and plot these by clicking the
  "Equity" button in the AA (a backtest is required after each code change).
  To prevent having to insert/delete the /* each time you want to switch
  between the Built-In Equity plot and your own plots you can curly-bracket
  the Buit-in Equity code and make it conditional on the state of a
  StaticVariable you can control from any AA code, the Built-In equity plot
  now looks like ths:
  /**/
  //--equity-plot-- do not remove this line
  if (IsEmpty(StaticVarGet("ShowBuiltinEquityPlot")))
  StaticVarSet("ShowBuiltinEquityPlot",1);
  if (StaticVarGet("ShowBuiltinEquityPlot"))
  {
  MaxGraph=0;GraphXSpace=5;
  GraphZOrder=1;
  Plot( Equity( 0, -2 ), "Equity", -8, styleArea );
  // now buy and hold simulation
  Short=Cover=0;
  Buy=Status("firstbarintest");
  Sell=Status("lastbarintest");
  SetTradeDelays(0,0,0,0); PositionSize = -100;
  ApplyStop(0,0,0,0);
  ApplyStop(1,0,0,0);
  ApplyStop(2,0,0,0);
  Plot( Equity( 0, -2 ), "Buy&Hold", -9 );
  }

  Now you can control display of the Built-In Equity Plot directly from your
  AA code, without the /* edit,  using this line:

  StaticVarSet("ShowBuiltinEquityPlot",0); // Set argument 1 to plot Buil-In
  Equity Plot

  best regards,

  herman.
