[amibroker] Help with 'Initial Equity"

["joeemmett2000" <joeemmett@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Happy New Year to Everybody!

Am trying to do a backtest where every trade starts with a 'position
size' of 10,000.

If I use 'PositionSizeShrinking = TRUE' and there are no losing trades
early on, everything is OK. If the first trade has a loss, the next
value for starting equity is less than 10,000.00

If I use 'PositionSizeShrinking = False' and the first trade is a
loss, there are no more trades.

I can set 'Initial Equity' high enough to cover any early losses and
every trade will be 10,000.00 but the 'Annual Return%'and RAR% will be
calculated on the higher 'Initial Equity'.

Is there a way to write in some 'conditions' where 'Initial Equity' is
10000.00 and 'Position Size' is 10000.00 and the 'Annual Return%'and
RAR% will be calculated on 'Initial Equity' = 10,000.00

Thanks, Joe
