Hello,
During a backtest, I want to dump the EntryDate, ExitDate, and Profit
for each trade, to an external file.
Everything works except converting the DateTimes to strings. When it is
dumped to file, I get "Invalid DateTime" for each of those entries.
Can anyone spot what is wrong here? Should be pretty straightforward:
FileName = "F:\\Test CBT.csv";
SetCustomBacktestProc( "" );
if ( Status( "action" ) == actionPortfolio )
{
bo = GetBacktesterObject();
bo.Backtest( 1 );
for ( trade = bo.GetFirstTrade(); trade; trade = bo.GetNextTrade() )
{
Profit = Trade.GetProfit;
EntryDate = Trade.EntryDateTime;
ExitDate = Trade.ExitDateTime;
EntryDateStr = DateTimeToStr( EntryDate );
ExitDateStr = DateTimeToStr( ExitDate );
fh = fopen( FileName, "a" );
if ( fh )
{
fputs( EntryDateStr + "," + ExitDateStr + "," + StrFormat(
"%.2f", Profit ) + "," + "\n", fh );
fclose( fh );
}
}
bo.ListTrades();
}
fast = MA( Close, 5 );
slow = MA( Close, 25 );
Buy = Cross( fast, slow );
Sell = Cross( slow, fast );
Cover = Short = 0;
