Thanks for your reply, but I think that's way too deep for me at the
moment. I have a very easy system coded - no for loops etc. Just set
my trigger and gates, initialequity etc, and backtest it. I have some
explore columns set up but thats about it. I tried this, and
substituted a test watchlist with one ticker in it for "list", ie
for( i = 0; ( sym = StrExtract( "AGK", i ) ) != ""; i++ )
and wrapped the system between the {}.
The backtest runs but still uses the full list I've selected in the
form.
