Oops. My mistake!! Backtesting is adding NO commission when I have
setting for "portfolio commission table".

I just ran two backtests. One with IB commissions set in my only
Account Manager, .acx, file. The second with $7/trade. The two tests
differed only by what you would expect from the differing commissions.
So, it looks like 'portfolio' commission table is now AM one.
However, I don't know what happens if you set up more than one AM.

I have emailed support twice regarding this issue but have got no
response yet. Does anyone know whether this feature (using portfolio
commission table for backtesting) has been removed from the new
version 4.90 because it is not compatible with the new account
manager? I just want to find a way to get it work because IB has
raised their commission maximum from 0.2% to 0.5% of trade value, I
need to re-test my systems.
Thanks!

In the new version (4.90) of AB, portfolio manager is gone and
replaced by account manager. When I use commission mode as "Using
portfolio commission table" in backtesting, how does AB choose an
account to use for commission calculation? It seems that this
option has no effect (commission is always 0)
Thanks,
