I feel like I wasted money upgrading for
the purpose of the Enhanced System Tester…………still
bitter.

Metastock Enhanced System Tester

tester?

let me first explain what I want the tester to
do!!

I want to test a system in a point's only, no
commission,1 bar 
delay,price set as open, and test on the dow 30
group.

The system signals work when I create an expert
and attach it to a 
chart.

The system consists of 4 distinct signals

long entry, long exit, short entry, short exit

it is basically a binary signal, +1 for long,-1
for short, 0 for 
exits

Now for the problem with the system tester,

The system tester misses or ignores certain exits
or entries and 
thus skews the results,making the whole process
invalid and useless.
The System Tester should show an arrow on the bar
following the 
signal bar of the Expert, signifying that a trade
took place as a 
market order 

In a point's only test, I'm looking to find the
profits and losses 
for all of the signals that the system generates.
I will then factor in the number of trades vs
winners & losers vs 
profits.

I'm trying to make the test as even as possible so
I'm not trying to 
compare apples to oranges.

When I contacted Equis on this matter, they tell
me that my 
parameters in the System Tester are not setup
properly.

I feel that the problem is in the System Tester
itself.
The old system tester was far superior to the
enhanced version.
The old version at least was accurate in
processing signals.
