[amibroker] Why is backtester filtering add on signals?



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

If I run a scan every buy or short signal is reported in the results
window. If I run a backtest, any buy or short signal that occurs when
a position in either direction is already open is not listed in the
report.

What setting am I missing that is filtering out additional signals?
Under the general tab of backtester settings I have the following:

Equity = 100,000
Position size = 1000
Margin requirement = 100
Round lot size = 1
Positions = Long and short
Periodicity = 30min
Min shares = 1
The only box that is checked is Allow same bar exit.

There is no PositionSize variable in my code. There are no ExRem
statements either. I don't know if either of these would affect add
ons so I left them out of the equation for now.

Please help,
Esteban
