[amibroker] Re: test

And one more question about your formula which is usig simple MA.
I have tested it on ^DJI - in period from 1995.01.01 till now
As a initial capital i took 10000 ( default in programme) and my
ending capital was 16310.57.
I did the same thing in Metastock and it shows as anding capital the
amount: 116286.68. 
So performance in MS is 1162.87 % when in AB it is 63.11 %. It is huge
difference. Is it becouse of "portfolio based back testing" which you
were talking about or maybe I did something wrong. Please let me know
if it is common that there are such a huge differences between results.
Best Regards
Pat
