Hi,
I don't have 4.90, so setbacktestmode does not work...
I edited a new file with this inside:
run = Optimize ("run", 1,1,1000,1);
SetOption("UseCustomBacktestProc", True );
SetOption("MaxOpenPositions", 5 );
SetOption("InitialEquity", 100000 );
SetOption("AllowPositionShrinking", True );
SetOption ("AllowSameBarExit", False);
SetOption ("ActivateStopsImmediately", False);
SetOption ("MinShares", 100);
SetOption ("MinPosValue", 5000);
SetOption ("PriceBoundChecking", True);
SetOption ("CommissionMode", 2);
SetOption ("CommissionAmount", 25);
SetOption ("AccountMargin", 100);
SetOption ("ReverseSignalForcesExit", True);
SetOption ("UsePrevBarEquityForPosSizing", True);
SetOption ("PortfolioReportMode",0 );
ShortTrades = ParamToggle("Short Trades?","Oui|Non",1);
Longtrades = ParamToggle("Long Trades?","Oui|Non",1);
PositionScore = Random();
and saved it as custom_backtest.afl at the right place. Then I added this at the beginning of the file with my formula:
SetOption("UseCustomBacktestProc", True );
SetCustomBacktestProc( "C:\\Program Files\\Amibroker\\Formulas\\Custom\\custom_backtest.afl" );
I don't understand why it is not working...

If you set custombacktestproc as true , you must have a custom backtest code to read.
you could try the function SetBacktestMode

ShortTrades = ParamToggle("Short Trades?","Oui|Non",1);
Longtrades = ParamToggle("Long Trades?","Oui|Non",1);
PositionScore = Random();
buy=.................................
sell=.....
etc.
Is there something wrong with this, as when I click "backtest" I see no results. When I change the custombacktestproc for "false" everything works well, but how do I do to get it my own way? Cause I'd like to be able to be in more than one trade at a time. And also, I think been in more than one trade at a time could make my Monte Carlo backtesting more reliable (am I right?).
Thanks,
Louis
