I was looking at the Custom Backtest (CBT) interface again this week and learnt something which I thought would be good to share.
As usual there is more than one way to do something and here I have discovered 3 ways to do the same thing….wow what is this magic I hear you ask
When you have some CBT code you want to run you can do it via one of the below options;
Option 1 – on the Analysis settings — Portfolio tab select you CBT .afl code to load
Option 2 – Insert your CBT code within your main .afl system code
Option 3 – have a single line of code in your main .afl system code which loads your CBT .afl code
SetCustomBacktestProc(“c:Program FilesAmiBrokerFormulasCustomCBT_CustomBackTest.afl”);
So there you go, another interesting tip for you to digest or even better share one of your own.
