Hey guys,
Thanks for the info. I finally got the report I wanted, but I had to
use the old backtester. When I try to get the same report using the
new backtester I only get results for the last symbol in my
database. In this case a stock that didn't give any buy signals.
Question however: Do you guys use the old or new backtester? I'm
just wondering why I can't get the report to come out correctly
using the new backtester. For some reason it's only showing my very
last row in the reports screen. Any suggestions or input? I really
appreciate the responses so far. Thanks.
Jacques
