Hello Dave I am also attempting to test a margin system as I trade CFDs. With CFDs there is sometimes 1% margin and I have found that setting the margin setting under settings to anything less than say 50 returns some strange trades in the backtester.
Have you had a reply on this, and if so, what was the response? Not sure if I need to use futures mode, but I am also not sure about how to set contract size etc. in this mode to get it as close as possible to my system. Anyone have any ideas?
