I'm using that setting - I'm just not quite sure how to interpret what it says (I trade EOD only), with backtesting buying/selling on the close, 1 day delayed.
So I have: -------------------------- Ticker/Trade/Date/Price/Ex. Date IWM/Open Long/4-8-08/71.02/4-15-08/68.53 EEM/Open Long/4-14-08/139.01/4-15-08/139.01 QQQQ/Open Long/4-14-08/44.08/4-15-08/44.08 How would you interpret that setup? I see it as: IWM - close position on close of 4-15-08 EEM - open position on close of 4-15-08 QQQQ - open position on close of 4-15-08 But am I interpreting this correctly? /d/ --- In [email protected], "Tomasz Janeczko" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yes, for my EOD systems I am using "add artitifical future bar" in the AA Settings "portfolio" tab. > This gives me trades for tommorow with position sizes. > > Best regards, > Tomasz Janeczko > amibroker.com > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "droskill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 6:59 PM > Subject: [amibroker] Trading a system - explorations vs. backtesting > > > > So I'm getting ready to do some real-world testing of a system I wrote > > - and I'm wondering how people are doing it. > > > > I've got both a backtest and an exploration setup for my strategy. > > Are people using the "peak ahead" option in the backtesting options to > > get to the next day trades? > > > > Just wondering how people are working it.
