But, as they are slow to respond – if they respond at all – maybe this is a better platform to post these to? @Nicolas, it seems you have a good channel to PRT. Please evaluate and pass on to them (I am going to post a number of these – some might be old, and may possibly even be in v10.3 already).

    Ability to read and set parameters on Backtester in code.

    For instance, being able to reference the initial capital that was specified on the backtester from within your strategy code to calculate position size.

    Or, being able to set fees – commissions/spreads, etc. from within the strategy code. Would make it easier to standardize testing – by copying and pasting all this information at the beginning of every strategy – fees, start and end date, initial capital, etc.

    Other platforms already have this – Amibroker comes to mind.

    Anybody else see the need for this?
