Here's a non-programming approach. It's painful but it works.
* Run the system on all the symbols you want to test.
* For each symbol, write out the trade-by-trade report in spreadsheet
format.
* Read all the spreadsheets into Excel.
* Combine them all (cut & paste) into one worksheet.
* Sort them by date -- I use the closing date of the trade.
* Add a column to compute the running equity, by adding the profit
from each trade.
* Voila! You have a portfolio result. You can chart it or whatever
you choose.
