I am having some problems with my system backtester. For
example, I am trying to test the modified HACO: http://stocata.org/ta_en/haco_mod.html
For whatever reason, I am getting no trades on ticker “A”,
while the same formula in expert advisor is giving me 14 trade signals and a
profit that is slightly more than the buy and hold approach. I am having the
same problem with almost every other backtesting systems. Any help is
appreciated.
The formula I have for backtest is:
Buy: Cross(Fml("0 Modified HACO"), .5)
Sell: Cross(.5, Fml("0 Modified HACO"))
SellShort: Cross(.5, Fml("0 Modified HACO"))
Buy to Cover: Cross(Fml("0 Modified HACO"), .5)
Thanks,
