Re: [amibroker] Re: Backtest: specifying position size in terms of compounded capital c,ount

[Kevin Glenn <kbglenn@xxxxxxxxx>]

Can I add on to this question please?

If you are for backtesting in futures mode with the following parameters using NQ as an example;

Margin = 3750
Tick size = .25
Points = x20
Equity = 100,000
Position Risk = 1% of equity/$1000
Points between buy and stop  = 10 pts/$200 per contract at risk
Thus, you want the backtester to buy/short 5 contracts
