Dingo --Thanks for your response. It got me thinking about my problem
(1). Work around is to call both trade.AddCustomMetric("Profit so far",
PosSumProfit) and trade.AddCustomMetric("Loss so far", NegSumProfit) for
every trade. This actually saves some code because it gets rid of some
of the for() loops. As for problem (2), I will send a suggestion to AB.--

AFAIK both observations are by design. Can you specify the columns?
Not in AB but you can write a script to export the results and delete
or hide the columns in Excel with a macro. d

Subject: Re: [amibroker] Custom Backtester Procedure
Ray --I asked a very similar question two days ago, but
unfortunately have received no replies to it. I am repeating it
below in hopes that someone will be able to answer both our
questions.========== Original Questions =============1. Using
custom backtester, high level, I tried to add two columns to the
AA view list. first column using: trade.AddCustomMetric("Profit
so far", PosSumProfit); second column using: trade.AddCustomMetric("Loss
so far", NegSumProfit);However, what I get instead is one column
with label for which ever happened first. It contains both
correct "Profit so far" and "Loss so far" values. 2. I do not
want all of the default columns, just ones I specify. Can I do
this with high level custom backtester? If not, then with
what?====================================Ray, I
placed the trade.AddCustomMetric() statements inside the for()
loops. This places the column(s) on the AA tade list. Using
bo.AddCustomMetric()
after the for() loops places the results on the Statistics page
of the Backtest Report (the backtest has completed). -- Keith

I have been studying it at
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/a_custombacktest.html
I have put my software in it as shown in the example by Paul
Ho. It
works BUT all it shows is 3 items in the REPORT, Ave
Profit/loss %,
AveProfit %, AveLoss %.
What I want is to revise columns in the AA columns like Date,
Ex date
to change WIDTH to show minutes ,etc and delete columns that
I do not
require.
Can this be done? Does anybody have software to do this.
Ray
