But the way I understand the Custom Backtester is that it will process
each stock one at a time. What I need is to first process all of the
stocks for each day and keep track of how many stocks are on the list
for tomorrow. Then based on how many are in that list, then I can set
the positionsize for that day and let the backtester work. The issue
that I can't understand is how to get the stock list for the day (like
I do running the explorer each night) into the backtester to be used
each day with the modified positionsize.
Hope that makes sense,
Mark
