I forgot to mention one thing: In addition to my code you can also use 
TJ's excellent code from http://www.amibroker.com/kb/2007/10/11/low-
level-gfx-example-yearlymonthly-profit-chart/ and replace 

eq = Foreign("~~~EQUITY", "C" );

by 

eq = Foreign("~~~OSEQUITY", "C" );

in order to analyse your OOS results a little bit closer.

Greetings,

Thomas
