I know, but is there a way to use the bar numbers instead of the dates? when making a statistics it’s cumbersome to use the dates

thanks

This is exactly the problem, Nicholas: it doesn’t.

Now: 20 september 2016 1:00 PM; asset: South Africa 40 at 3 minutes, 200 units; the graph as I see it starts correctly 200 bars before on 20 september 2016 3:18 AM. But after the backtest the vertical black line on the equity line is reported on 19 september 2016 1:03 AM and the equity line itself starts on 19 september 2016 8:50 AM. I do not understand.

Let’s summarize a bit: to make my statistics I need to tell the system: “optimize only on the last 200 bars, no one more, no one less”. Maybe PRT does not allow such a standard operation, but it seems to me quite unlikely.

The idea in essence should have worked, but unfortunately it did’nt.

This is obviously a bug in the Platform that should be signalled and we have tried some patches without success.

I thank you very much for your time, but I feel it should not expedient to make still more efforts on a subject that with evidence is intractable.

Best of all

Well, you may call it a bug or not, but neither me nor you could solve the problem of which I have given ample specifications.
