Still NO GO.
I am loading the code in the AA, select a watchlist, run an
Individual backtest, and Refresh the WorkSpace. I get the BT report with
individual results. I get two Composites in my Composites Group. One is named
~~~EQUITY, the other ~~~UI_~~~EQUITY. The first makes sense but the second
indicates that the StaticVar does not return the ticker name.
>> It
appears that in this code the function Name() returns "~~~EQUITY" and
does not return the name for the ticker being tested, it behaves as if the
~~~EQUITY composite is the ticker being tested.
Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks again!
Herman

It will work OK.
Individual
backtest *is* portfolio backtest but just portfolio consisting of one symbol at
a time.
Note that one should select "Individual Backtest" (not "OLD"
backtest) from AA->Backtest drop down.
One correction
though
StaticVarSetText( "Symbol", Name() );
should be called only
when NOT in portfolio mode
so
if( Status("action") ==
actionBacktest ) StaticVarSetText( "Symbol", Name() );
// Demo trading
system
Short = Cover = 0;
Buy = Cross( MACD(), Signal() );
Sell =
Cross( Signal(), MACD() );
// Using the CBT to retrieve/save
metrics
SetOption( "UseCustomBacktestProc", True );
if ( Status( "action"
) == actionPortfolio )
{
bo =
GetBacktesterObject();
bo.PreProcess();
MyHistStat1 = Null;
for ( bar =
0; bar < BarCount; bar++ )
{
bo.ProcessTradeSignals( bar );
stats =
bo.GetPerformanceStats( 0 );
MyHistStat1[ bar ] = stats.GetValue(
"UlcerIndex" ); // any metric can be
retrieved
}
bo.PostProcess();
AddToComposite( MyHistStat1, "~~~UI_" +
StaticVarGetText( "Symbol" ) + "_HISTORICAL", "X", atcFlagEnableInPortfolio |
atcFlagDefaults );
}

First of all. You use Status{"action") == actionPortfolio,
individual backtest wont go through there.

Thank you Tomasz, but this code still
does not work. I changed the StaticVar to the Text type.
Can you help
some more ... ? or does anyone else see the
problem?
TIA,
Herman

{
bo.ProcessTradeSignals( bar );
stats =
bo.GetPerformanceStats( 0 );
MyHistStat1[ bar ] = stats.GetValue(
"UlcerIndex" ); // any metric can be
retrieved
}
bo.PostProcess();
AddToComposite( MyHistStat1, "~~~UI_" +
StaticVarGetText( "Symbol" ) + "_HISTORICAL", "X", atcFlagEnableInPortfolio |
atcFlagDefaults );
}

The same code. The only distinction
is that you need to run INDIVIDUAL backtest
and use Static variable to save
name
StaticVarSet Text ("Symbol", Name() );
// Demo trading
system
Short = Cover = 0;
Buy=Cross( MACD(), Signal() );
Sell=Cross(
Signal(), MACD() );
// Using the CBT to retrieve/save
metrics
SetOption("UseCustomBacktestProc", True );
if( Status("action") ==
actionPortfolio )
{
bo = GetBacktesterObject();
bo.PreProcess();
MyHistStat1 = Null;
for(bar=0; bar <
BarCount; bar++)
{
bo.ProcessTradeSignals( bar
);
stats = bo.GetPerformanceStats( 0 );
MyHistStat1[ bar ] = stats.GetValue("UlcerIndex"); // any metric can be
retrieved
}
bo.PostProcess();
AddToComposite(
MyHistStat1, "~~~UI_" + StaticVarGet Text ("Symbol") + "_HISTORICAL", "X",
atcFlagEnableInPortfolio | atcFlagDefaults
);
}
PlotForeign("~~~UI_HISTORICAL", "UlcerIndex Historical",
colorRed, styleLine );
