Mark,
I am sorry that you did not get response. Will ask Marcin why.
As to your question: the functionality to use portfolio account
commission table in the backtester
was not removed per se, what is hidden is ability to access "old
portfolio" commission table.
You can access it however using previous version (4.89 for
example).
In the upcoming versions backtester will gain multi-tiered commission
table as it is already
present in the account manager.
Best regards,
Tomasz

table
I have emailed support twice regarding this
issue but have got no response yet. Does anyone know whether this
feature (using portfolio commission table for backtesting) has been removed
from the new version 4.90 because it is not compatible with the new account
manager? I just want to find a way to get it work because IB has raised
their commission maximum from 0.2% to 0.5% of trade value, I need to re-test
my systems.
Thanks!

Subject: [amibroker] commission
table
In the new version (4.90) of AB, portfolio
manager is gone and replaced by account manager. When I use commission
mode as "Using portfolio commission table" in backtesting, how does AB
choose an account to use for commission calculation? It seems that this
option has no effect (commission is always 0)
Thanks,
