Thanks Graham, I can get them to agree now. So I have to set the parameter in my indicator, then I have to set it in the AA parameters, then if I want an individual equity curve, I have to set it again in the Equity pane? ARGH!!!
I must still be missing something --it can't be that disjointed. Is there a way to link them all together so changing one will change the others also? Or am I trying to use the backtester and equity in a way that was not intended? I am just trying to make an indicator display for one symbol show the equity curve and trading arrows change as a parameter slider is changed --just as a learning tool. I just want to have all the pictures agree with each other in a simple foolproof way. Perhaps it is done with AFL? I am trying to build up my understanding of AB and AFL one baby step at a time, before I do anything complicated. Your help is appreciated.
