No or incorrect display of drawdown in V12

I’ve had a problem with the detailed report in V12 for days… usually after an optimization or starting a backtest, no drawdown value or a completely stupid drawdown value is displayed. If I close the detailed report and reopen it from the back test, the values are correct again. In addition, only the overall performance is displayed in the overview. The Long and Short columns are empty. So no individual performance. If I now close the report again and reopen it, the long and short values are listed individually again, but… only the total drawdown in the far left column, long and short drawdown is empty. I noticed it in the demo account a few days ago and didn’t think anything of it. But now I notice that there is the same problem in the live account. Anyone else with this phenomenon? Is there a solution for this? Do I actually have a disadvantage if I switch completely back to V11? The problems in V12 are slowly getting out of hand.

Thanks Wim, what you have outlined makes a lot of sense. V12 seems quite a bit more resource-hungry to me. I would have thought though that the tech. dept would run regular tests on a “consumer grade” set-up, so they know how it is working for us mortals in the outside world. Maybe they don’t do this.

I can confirm it is both Demo and Live accounts that are affected.

Hopefully phoentzs’ request to Nicolas will get us an update.

It is the Automatically generated Detailed Report that hs the double counting issue.

AHA … above is probably why I do not / rarely see the double counting as I have the automatically generated Detailed Report disabled / turned off.

When I decide on which 1 or 2 (out of 8 to 10 backtests – different TF’s etc) I want to explore further, THEN I click on System title on the equity curve and select Detailed Report.

I guess I have inadvertently been using a ‘work around’ all along without even realising it … hence why I have not added much to this discussion.

Thanks GraHal, I think all this adds credence to Win’s post regarding the server load. One thing I have noticed is that that Automated Report seems to regenerate itself or reload almost instantly after it has initially opened. If you blink, you miss it. I noticed this after the previous upgrade that fixed some of the other issues with the Detailed Report. Maybe it was doing this before that but I don’t think so … if this was part of the fix then maybe it needs tweaking in some way. Or maybe they are working to reduce the server load problem … if there is one. Who knows – we can only guess.

Batty, I don’t understand what your problem is now. the solution. Just do what I advise to do in there. 🙂 Then it works fine.
