Hello Mike,
 
the site from which diownload DebeugView frewware seems to be down.
 
So, I have no way of seeing trace output at this point.
 
I tried to display it in Exploration mode, but I couldn´t figure out how to format addcolumn(Date_first_portfolio_bar,??????);
 
To be able to display the date of any bar under backtest, can´t I somehow use the (corrected) code (i.e. loop) since _I may need to dispplay a couple of dates in my code??
 
Thanks
 
Markus

SetCustomBacktestProc( "" ); 

if ( Status( "action" ) == actionPortfolio )
{
    
StaticVarSet( "Date_first_portfolio_bar", Status("rangefromdate") );

    bo =
GetBacktesterObject();
    bo.PreProcess();

    
for ( bar = 0; bar < BarCount; bar++ )
    {
        ...;
    }

    bo.PostProcess();

    
_TRACE( "Date of first bar: " + StaticVarGet( "Date_first_portfolio_bar" ) );
}

Mike
