I'm just using single symbol backtest.
When you say: "If this is just the last chart trade for a symbol,
whether used or
not in portfolio backtest, then you need to use a loop to refer to
previous buy/sell signals to exclude buy signals based on past result."
How can I refer to previous buy/sell signal results?
Should I look through the buy array when its value is =1 and compute
the difference between buyprice and sell price?
How do I know the position size of the previous trade to calculate
the trade P&L?
thanks in advance
