Quick answer. The backtester works. No question about that at all.
So, you have wrong settings, wrong code or other problems.
If you post some code and what equities you are trading, then we can
help.

Subject: [amibroker] Crazy backtest results
Hi all,
new user to AMI,and was running some simple backtests.Much to my
suprise,the backtest report is distributing 100% innacurate results.
How does the backtester come up with a net loss of (6015.37),when it
appears that the long trades netted $7695.35 while the short trades
only lost (5534.03).I would think that I shoild have a net profit of
1679.98....How can this be???Thank you!!!
For the record,much more bizzare things are happening.For instance,I
have selected in settings "LONG" trades,and in the trade reports,no
short trades are entere,but I do have a SHORT P&L in the reports..
Here is a copy of reports
All trades Long trades Short trades
Initial capital 200000.00 200000.00 200000.00
Ending capital 193984.60 207695.35 194465.97
Net Profit -6015.37 7695.35 5534.03
any help deeply appreciated
Allan
