[amibroker] Backtesting the FOREX

["andrewsemryck" <andrewsemryck@xxxxxxxxx>]

  I am trying to trade the Forex market and trying
to understand how to
backtest the currencies.  I know exactly how to
backtest regular stocks
but I'm having trouble backtesting the Forex
market.  I have already
read your

http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_futbacktest.html
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_pyramid.html

Sites but it still didn't seem to work.. I'm
tradeing the Forex with a
20:1 leverage at 10,000 units per lot.  I put the
point value of 1, the
margin deposit at $500($500 per 10,000 units is
20:1 leverage), round
lot size at 10,000, tick size as 0, check marked
futures mode.

Am I missing something, or doing something wrong?



Also when I run a scan it shows the price at which
it bought and sold it
for but its only 2 decimal places, is there a way
to change those
decimal places.


Thanks

Andy
