Thomas, Since your code includes +Name() inside composite name, EVERYTIME you run this on watch list with more than 100 symbols it creates MORE than 100 composites in one run.
So I repeat: you should add all composite symbols *before* you run backtest that creates more than 100 composites at once. Also you are code is missing one thing: you MUST start composite name with ~ (tilde). ==================================== Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas Zmuck To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2007 4:11 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] Re: AB crashes when i use AddToComposite with name() and atcFlagEnableInBacktest vlanschot, does my simple cci code also crash on your computer ? It even doesn't include any custom backtest code, it's just a very basic code. Regards Thomas www.PatternExplorer.com 2007/7/23, vlanschot < [EMAIL PROTECTED]>: As you know Tomasz, I've also experienced this behaviour when using ATC in CBT. In my case I do NOT create more than 100 composites all at once. I only create one by doing the following: AddToComposite( Foreign("~~~EQUITY","C"), "~~~My_Equity", "C", atcFlagDefaults | atcFlagEnableInPortfolio ); AddToComposite( Foreign("~~~EQUITY","L"), "~~~My_Equity", "L", atcFlagDefaults | atcFlagEnableInPortfolio ); CategoryAddSymbol("~~~My_Equity", categoryGroup , 250 ); eq = Foreign("~~~My_Equity", "C" ); Nevertheless, it crashes, unless I've pre-created it. This is the reason why I am not(YET) using multiple cxomposites in CBT, although I'd love to, if only for risk management purposes.
