Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] How to run trading system simulations with variable position size?

Hi Venkatesh

 

 

Once you designate a setting other than Use Default Size for the Entry Size option a "function" button at the right end of the entry line becomes enabled (it will be greyed out until you change the default setting). Clicking on that button will open up a text window that's a little more useful than the single entry line. The same type of option is available for defining Limit or Stop Price values.

 

Another way to get the job done is to create position size or price formulas in the Indicator Builder and calling  them using Fml().

Subject: [EquisMetaStock Group] How to run trading system simulations with variable position size?

 

Hi,
Does any one know how to use the Enhanced System tester , but with position size that is dependent on say volatility (ATR)?
While I see that the system editor allows formulas to be typed in the tabs BUY ORDER and SELL SHORT ORDER in the box "ENTRY SIZE", looks like this is useless. When I run simulations, I do not chose Points only test. This allows me to enter starting equity , but the number of units field takes only numbers, not formulas. Can someone kindly help?
